History of DEIF

DEIF (Danish Electro Instrument Factory) was established in 1933 by Erling Foss and his two partners. The company’s main activity consisted in assembling and mounting by hand basic electromagnetic measuring instruments. Focus was on precision and robustness.

 

Today, DEIF is owned and managed by the founder's son, Toke Foss. The products have become extremely more advanced and markets now include knowledge intensive business areas such as Engine & Gen-Set Controls, Switchboard Instrumentation, Bridge Instrumentation and Renewable Energy Controls. Yet, the focus on quality, reliability and service remains the same.

 

In 2004, DEIF stepped into the business area of renewable energy controls with its acquisition of West Control, a Danish company which by then had 100 years of accumulated experience within the wind industry.
