Water and wastewater assets run unattended, often at sites nobody visits for weeks. The control system is not a convenience — it is the only thing that tells you a pump has failed before the overflow does.
We build and support the switchboards, drives, PLC and SCADA behind those processes, with the electrical and controls delivered by the same team.
What matters on water assets
- Remote sites fail quietly — without proper alarming and telemetry, the first sign of a problem is the consequence.
- Pump control is where the energy goes — drives, duty rotation and level control settings quietly determine the power bill.
- Legacy RTUs and PLCs — plenty of assets still run controllers nobody stocks parts for.
- Access is the constraint — confined spaces, wet wells and traffic management shape how the work gets scheduled.
Most sites in this sector are better served by an ongoing arrangement than job-by-job callouts. See maintenance agreements.
