STRATFORD, Conn.--()--On Friday, August 23, Ashcroft Inc. (Ashcroft) President & CEO, Steven A. Culmone presented 100+ Ashcroft® pressure and temperature instruments to Mystic Aquarium. On hand to accept the donation were Keith Sorensen, Vice President, Facilities & Capital Projects, and Todd Devlin, Life Support Technician.

The instruments will be used in the water systems that manage and maintain water quality to ensure the health and safety of the aquarium’s residents.
