Dantec Dynamics as we know it today has its roots in the “Electronics Department” established by Dansk Industri Syndikat (DISA) in 1947.

DISA became interested in electronics – a completely new field in those days – as early as the 1930s. A few years later, in 1943, four Danmarks Radio employees set up a laboratory to undertake development projects in the field of low-current electronics.

DISA became interested in the laboratory’s activities, which complemented the work that it was itself involved in, as well as its future plans. The four colleagues moved their laboratory to DISA’s premises. The company’s electronics activities were gathered in the Electronics Department in 1947 – now considered the year Dantec Dynamics was born.

The department very soon began to develop a wide range of high-quality products for use both in medicine and the measurement of pressure and rotation. One of these early products, DISATAC, measures rotation in turbochargers and is still sold to the marine and offshore industries.

During the 1950s, the company developed its knowledge and expertise in flow measurement – know-how that provided the foundations for Dantec Dynamics’ current position as the world’s leading supplier of instrumentation for flow measurement and particle characterisation.
