Barber-Colman Company, Industrial Instruments Division

The roots of the Barber-Colman Company are more than a century old, and originally began in the textile industry. After decades of growth, expansion, and diversification, Barber-Colman formed the DYNA Products group in 1973, to manufacture and distribute controls for diesel and gas powered equipment.

In 1987, parent company Barber-Colman was acquired by Siebe plc, a global powerhouse with corporate headquarters in Windsor, England.

In 1998 Barber-Colman acquired Fuel Management Systems, Inc. With the addition of FMS, DYNA Products offers complete integrated engine management solutions for off-highway applications. This includes electronic fuel injection, ignition timing control, and electronic speed governing.

In early 1999, BTR plc became part of the Siebe plc group and a new name emerged suggesting invention, innovation, and systems. The name: Invensys.
