Product Developed by KIET MBS
It is a matter of immense pleasure to share this information with you that the team of KIET MBS has come up with their first industry ready product *Oxyana* to get installed in plant established at Loni Ghaziabad. Our product Oxyana is an Oxygen analyzer device with multiple controlling features. This device is novel as it is the only existing device which shows different parameters of the flowing oxygen. It shows 4 parameters of the flowing oxygen which includes its concentration, flow, humidity and temperature also the on board microcontrollers in the device help in controlling the valves to maintain the flow and concentration level. It took us 6 months to complete this project but with the dedicated team efforts we have managed to complete our first consultancy project on time and also received the order for developing 19 units from MBS India Pvt.Ltd. The members of a giant company General Electric(GE) have visited the plant and taken the close review of our product, they were pleased and gave us the assurance of collaboration with KIET MBS research Centre in the near future.
