Kussmaul
Electronics Company started operations in September 1967 as Kussmaul Engineering
Company
and at that time provided consulting engineering and
design services in the field of servomechanisms and automatic control. The company
is privately held and
now occupies its own modern manufacturing facility in
West Sayville, New York.
Recognizing a need for completely Automatic Battery chargers that would be
highly Reliable, Dependable,
Rugged, and Economical, the company designed such a unit. Utilizing the latest solid
state technology resulted in a superior product which, over the years, has grown
into a complete line of battery chargers. Although originally designed for fire
departments and emergency services, these products find wide application wherever
batteries must be maintained in a fully charged state with a minimum of operator
attention.
As
the line of chargers expanded, other products and accessories have been added-in
particular, the Auto Eject and Air Eject. These devices automatically disconnect
power lines and air lines from a vehicle when that vehicle is started. Widely
accepted by fire departments and ambulance companies throughout the country,
Kussmaul Electronics Company products are now installed by virtually every major
vehicle manufacturer.
