Customer Testimonials
We’ve been using Dent PowerScout meters on our controls projects for years.
The simplicity of product selection saves me time in the engineering process. With a quick software download, our programming technicians can easily pull all available information into Compass through BACnet, and clearly display data for our customers.
We recently helped one of our bigger accounts (Lakeville, MN School District) lay out a load-shed plan on a switch to generator power. We were able to ramp down (or disable) equipment, and see electrical usage in real time . Knowing the generator capacity, we set up a program in Compass that would run the equipment specified, and at what levels, when on backup power.
I have been working with DENT Instruments for almost ten years and I can truly recommend them. The DENT meters are great because they are cost efficient, so easy to install and high quality. Plus, we have never had any lead time issues. When I talk about the return on investment with my clients, I always show them the full picture. The installation is so easy, and the software allows my guys to configure a meter in a matter of minutes. High efficiency lowers our risk.
I had a new hire who I trained on the meter for only an hour, after which he could get out on the field and contribute immediately. It is easy to get help and support from the DENT Instruments team. They are service-minded, always available, and have great knowledge.
About DENT Instruments

Crafting instruments of superior quality is serious business. DENT Instruments is an ISO 9001:2015 certified company which means that each of our products is manufactured in observance of the highest quality standards. Products that do not match our standard do not make it through the process. It’s that simple.

Founded in 1988, DENT Instruments has been in the industry long enough to see metering change from a casual curiosity to a serious mandate.
