MKS Instruments: Overall Rating 89%
www.mksinst.com
This site might easily end up as IEN’s top rated sitei n the Process Controls area if so much of the technical information were not restricted by registration requirements. It is well organized and appears to offer everything an engineer and designer might need to find the right solution. Product areas and application information by market sector is clearly marked. A great selection of technical papers, application notes and other information is available, but locked behind a firewall, possibly turning off some users. On the positive side, the registration does not require a phone number. Service and support options are clearly noted throughout the site. All in all, this is one site that is worth checking out for its robust content, even if a bunch of the juicy stuff can only be accessed by giving your contact information.
