OUR SERVICES

CONTROL PANEL BUILDING

Using our centrally located workshops, we can design and manufacture control panels and switchboards from: 

• The customer's design philosophy 

• End user's specifications and drawings 

• Our own CAD drawings and design techniques 

• Customer description with production and engineering input during meetings 

• Reverse engineering and modernisation of old equipment 

PLC PANELS & PROGRAMMING 

Forming an integral part of a modern control system would typically be a PLC and associated digital touchscreens (often referred to as HMI’s). 

These would control the electrical and electronic equipment that forms part of a manufacturing or infrastructure control system.

We can integrate PLC’s and HMI’s into new or existing equipment to improve: 

• Machine performance 

• Reliability 

• Environmental factors 

• Energy efficiency 

• Logging of data 

• Maintenance and fault finding 

ATEX INSTALLATIONS

Our small team of engineers include some who are experienced and qualified in the use and installation of ATEX equipment. 

ATEX equipment is used where there has been identified and categorized a potential for the presence of an explosive atmosphere, which could be ignited with the discharge of electrical energy. 

Using ATEX equipment, installed and inspected by COMPEX qualified personnel will ensure the risks in the hazardous areas are managed and reduced. 

ENERGY EFFICIENT INSTALLATIONS

The high cost of energy these days has been a contributing factor in the increased running costs and lower profits for many industries 

These increased costs can be mitigated by: 

• Introducing LED lighting 

• Time switches, photo cells or occupancy sensors 

• Installing inverters to control motors (running at a lower speed where possible, will reduce electricity consumption) 

• Installing power factor correction can free up more capacity from a supply and depending on your tariff, lower standing charges for example 

• PLC control of a machine may make it more efficient and result in less waste product 

SWITCHBOARDS

We can design and build bespoke switchboards where space and time is critical. 

Lead times for switchboards can be very long, measured in months, so sometimes some creative thinking and design is required to achieve a quick turnaround. 

With the help of our partners, we can usually find a solution for most needs. 

We can supply and install switchboards with up to 2500A incoming devices. 

ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION

We can supply and install a wide range of electrical distribution equipment including:

• Switchboards 

• MCCB boards 

• MCB boards 

• Associated sub mains cabling and cable containment systems including  

• Cable ladder 

• Cable tray 

• Trunking 

• Basket 

• Direct in ground cables
