Finding a world class supplier of process instrumentation who can also provide the associated control systems engineering is a real challenge. Equally, many system integrators are tied to one systems manufacturer and have little or no instrument experience. Endress+Hauser is uniquely positioned in being able to offer both device and systems engineering expertise.
Since the formation of the company in 1953, Endress+Hauser has become an established supplier of process instrumentation and associated services. But did you know that we also have an experienced group of systems engineers embedded within our solutions delivery team?
Experienced engineers With the introduction of project engineering services to our portfolio over a decade ago, the requirement for systems expertise became apparent. We invested in experienced engineers who have the capability to translate the users’ requirements into bespoke control and display systems, utilising PLC or HMI-based hardware and associated SCADA software. If you already have a systems site standard in place, rest assured that our systems engineers have vast knowledge and experience of the most popular automation platforms used in process industries today.
As you have unrivalled knowledge of your own plant, our system engineers will work in close cooperation with you, employing your experience to develop a control philosophy that will automate your process. Our engineers will join the project delivery team headed by one of our experienced project managers and, in line with our quality procedures, produce a Functional Design Specification (FDS) document which is approved by all parties before the system configuration and test begins. They will stay with the project for the on-site commissioning, training and final handover.
Automation projects from beginning to end The risks involved in implementing an automation project usually increase when many different disciplines are involved. This includes engineering services such as project management and design, applying the correct process measurement devices, installing and commissioning devices and plant networks, or implementing the control and display system. Endress+Hauser has vast experience and capability in all these areas and can bring additional industry-related expertise to the table, all backed by our support network of production centres and partners. We can therefore take full end-to-end responsibility for the project delivery.
We are experienced in delivering a range of automation solutions, including mixing and blending systems, tank inventory monitoring, pump and valve control, chemical dosing skids and fermentation plant control. So why stop at the measurement device? If your requirement extends to control and visualisation, ask us about our systems engineering capability and benefit from our proven track record in delivering automation solutions to industry.
