History

Over 35 Years of Innovation

Berkeley Springs Instruments, LLC, (BSI) has specialized in the development and application of innovative industrial technologies for over 35 years. These technologies include in-service tank robotics, nuclear power plant control room design, neural network software development, remote monitoring systems, and more. BSI and its legacy companies embarked in 1980 and have designed and fabricated hundreds of remotely controlled and robotic machines for the inspection of above ground storage tanks (AST’s), and confined spaces worldwide. BSI has a strong and globally respected reputation and foundation of technical excellence.

BSI understands the end-to-end design of monitoring networks with decades of experience in control room and SCADA system interface design, alarm systems and large-scale risk assessment analyses. BSI management has participated in world class IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) safety system design committees, remote system controls, complex information management projects and a range of human-machine monitoring and control networks from satellites to subsea.

BSI serves a broad range of industries, including energy, petrochemical, electric utilities, pharmaceuticals, and municipalities.
