INSTRUMENTATION & CONTROL

We have specialist instrument knowledge in Process Measurement, Analytical Measurement / Analysers & Final Elements such as valves, variable speed drive control, turbines, pumps, and compressors.

We can assist with basic instrumentation through to complex matters including independent client support for Warranty Claim processes.  We can help with front-end project specification and selection of suitable instrument types or upgrades and rejuvenation works.
