| | Russells Technical Products began when Russells Refrigeration Co., a commercial and industrial refrigeration sales and service company, was acquired in 1972 by Mr. Donald Bench. Since then, Russells has been designing and manufacturing enviromental test chambers and provides a comprehensive and varied product line including both pre-engineered and custom products. This varienty has allowed Russells to attract and retain the technical expertise required in this field. Mr. Bench has been in the environmental test chamber manufacturing business since the 1950's starting with Conrad Inc., one of the original pioneering companies in this industry. Mr. Bench served Conrad as Chief Engineer and later becoming its President.
Russells' management team has over 150 years experience in the design and manufacture of environmental test equipment. Russells' personnel are qualified and skilled in all phases of the design and manufacture of test chambers. Its business philosophy is to operate self-sufficiently in terms of utilizing modest but functional facilities and equipment to maintain a low overhead structure and enhance the value of its products. It owns its manufacturing facilities and capital equipment such as sheet metal fabrication, welding, electrical, refrigeration and painting equipment in order to maintain closer control and quality of these operations than if sub-contracted to outside suppliers.
Some of the companies and government facilities that we have supplied test chambers for are:
Aerojet General, Litton Amecom, Boeing Aerospace, Martin Marietta, Bose Corp, Motorola, Chrysler, Morton International, Ford Motor Co, Northrop, General Electric, Raytheon, General Motors, Sandia National Labs, Hamilton Standard, Westinghouse, Hewlett Packard, Wyle Laboratories, Hughes Aircraft, United Technologies, IBM, U.S. Naval Surface Warfare Center (Crane, IN), Intel, Delphi, Valeo, Johnson Controls. | |
