Industrial Control System Upgrades

Industrial Control System Upgrades

 

Industrial control system design is vital to the reliability, functionality, and efficiency of thermal oxidizers, scrubbers, and other process equipment. If you’re operating with outdated controls, you’re operating at a major disadvantage. Benefits to upgrading your legacy control system include:


1. System Reliability / Production Uptime

 

When your thermal oxidizer or scrubber stops working properly, production shuts down and operating costs mount. You also face the repercussions of violating your air permit. Read how our Controls Upgrade at a Chemical Manufacturing Company dramatically increased uptime and cut costs.


2. Safety Updates

 

Your control system may currently “meet code” based on the date your equipment was installed but could be lacking in key safety improvements.


3. Operational Efficiencies and Troubleshooting

 

An upgrade offers powerful innovations like highly specific alarms with first-out annunciation and information screens that feature troubleshooting steps and/or potential root causes. Read how our Controls Upgrade at a Fortune 500 Auto Manufacturer streamlined troubleshooting and increased system reliability.


4. Market Competitiveness

 

Upgrading can enhance system performance and improve data collection. Better data leads to better decision-making, so you can adapt to market conditions quickly and cost-effectively.


5. System/Parts Availability

 

Many popular control platforms are being phased out of production and are no longer supported by the manufacturer. If you own one of these platforms, upgrading to a new system is inevitable.

 

Our controls expertise coupled with our decades of experience with air pollution control equipment make us uniquely qualified to determine the most effective controls solution for your needs for quality, productivity, and lowest total cost of ownership.


We can build systems based on electrical designs, or we can engineer custom designs.
