Control Systems Design
Design Specifications
Design specification deliverables are project related and are subject to customer requirement.
We offer design specifications listed below,
- Functional Design Specifications (FDS)
- Software Design Specifications (SDS)
- VSD Configurations Workbook
- Software Design Test Specifications (STS)
Software Design
We have expertise on several automation technologies like Rockwell, Siemens and Mitsubishi.
This means we have more tools to support you. We can deliver completely new installations from scratch or upgrade your existing systems.
With a wealth of experience we can cater for all your automation needs.
We provide solutions for all aspects of automation like,
- Process control software
- SCADA / HMI
- Recipe management
- Data logging and trending
- Event logging and alarming
Hardware Design
We have a dedicated design team with designs produced in Solidworks Electrical.
Electrical design deliverables are project related, but as a minimum comprise:
- General Arrangement
- Drawings
- Electrical Schematics
- Termination Drawings
- Cable Schedules
- I/O Schedules
- Bill of materials
Installation and Commissioning
Our control systems electricians will work on your site to wire up your system and connect it to the control panel, following which they will power up and test all of the power supplies and then test all of the inputs and outputs. At this stage our software engineers will visit to install and commission the control software, and then do any required training.
Functional Safety
In todays’ day and age, functional safety compliant control system is contractual demand. It is in place to ensure safety of personnel, equipment and product in case of critical failure. Control system is implemented in reference to functional safety standards BS EN 61508 and 61511 to make it safe.
The machinery directive does not specify the use of any standard, but the use of a control system meeting the requirements of the harmonised standard(s) is one means of demonstrating compliance.
We provide range of services to ensure our customers are in compliance with the safety standard and industry best practices.
To ensure all the functional safety requirement are met, we ensure to get our functional safety design reviewed and signed off by TÜV-certified engineers.
Machinery Safety Design Specifications
For functional safety projects it is mandatory to produce specific design documentation. These are subject to SIL level requirements. The common safety design specifications are as listed below, these however by no means are the extent of it.
- Risk Assessment
- Functional Safety Workbook
- Safety Software Requirement Specifications (SSRS)
- Safety Matrix
- Safety Software Test Specifications (SSTS)
