Chemtrol

Santa Barbara Control Systems (SBCS), a California Corporation, is the leading manufacturer of automatic controllers in the US, under the trade name of the CHEMTROL line. SBCS was founded by Dr. Jacques M. Steininger, a PhD in Chemical Engineering born in France, and has remained a Santa Barbara company throughout its history.

Our ongoing research and development we conduct at our California lab, ensures our controllers have industry-leading reliability with low maintenance requirements. Together with the rigorous quality control we undertake throughout our product development process, we are confident to offer a 5 year electronics warranty across our product range.

Our approach is to provide full user-definition of parameters and schedules for monitoring and maintaining healthy water. Below are categories for parameters and control settings. Each link describes the relevant menus on our controllers.

Our controllers are supplied in an industrial strength water resistant cabinet, manufactured from robust, sealed fiberglass that is designed to withstand severe environments. In addition to the normal probes readings process, our system also take into account saturation factors such as alkalinity, hardness, pH and temperature compensation for conductivity and pH measurement, crucial process for accurate readings. The Langelier saturation index module provides auto alerts of scaling and corrosion conditions.
