Division Industry

Industrial process control and energy management, in process plant, food industry, logistics facilities and marinas.

Here what cannot stop is the process

Regulation
There is no classification society: the low-voltage electrical regulations and their technical instructions apply, with inspection by an approved control body and registration with the industry authority. Where there is an explosive atmosphere the ATEX framework is added, and that governs enclosures, cabling and installation method.
What it demands
A production line does not stop for electrical work. The job is done in a planned shutdown, with the window counted in hours, or with the installation live and the precautions that requires. The documentation has to be left up to date, because the next inspection depends on it.
Who we deal with
The contact is the maintenance manager or the plant engineering team: people who will live with the installation every day and who value a switchboard that can be diagnosed without the drawing in hand. The relationship tends to run for years rather than for one project.

Installations where the process and the energy are controlled together.
