What is the real cost of Instrumentation?

The initial purchase price is only the tip of iceberg when determining the total cost of ownership for field instruments.  While critical to plant operations, field instrumentation purchases are often based on the lowest initial cost without considering the multitude of accounted costs that add up over the years. JMI Instrument Company can help you evaluate and minimize these often overlooked, reoccurring costs.
