Headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta, Optimum Instruments Inc. is a company that specializes in providing solutions for data acquisition and retrieval through innovative hardware and software designs. Optimum Instruments was founded in 1994 by Ken Smelquist, the current chief executive officer, on a simple concept: let customers access their data in as many ways as possible.
We manufacture the Data Dolphin family of battery powered data loggers and ultrasonic flow meters to help provide municipalities with answers to their data collection problems. We provide unique methods of data retrieval that include one-way and two-way high frequency radio, cellular switched network, CDPD, dialup and leased telephone line, laptop direct connect and web browser downloads. As well, we provide email and pager level alarms through ViewDataNow.com.
One of our greatest strengths is the ability to listen to a customer’s needs, devise a solution, and then rapidly incorporate the result into a finished product.
