ERC, a leader in the design and manufacture of gas liquid separations and detection solutions for the life science, analytical instrumentation, and diagnostic markets, was acquired by IDEX Corporation in April 2012.

ERC’s pioneering products include High-Flow Degassing Systems and Components that improve the performance of high-throughput diagnostic instruments, and Refractive Index Detectors (RIDs) that utilize optical measurement, temperature control and signal/data processing for HPLC applications like GPC. ERC’s original equipment degassing solutions are considered the “standard” for many of the world’s leading instrument producers.
