Automation & Electronics was formed to provide automation services for energy producers and other local industries in 1956. Turnkey solutions are provided for customer requirements.
Field automation groups can select valve control schemes and signal types. Pulsed outputs for valve control are often used with 1-5 Volt battery backed solar powered systems. Plant automation standards generally call for 4-20 milliamp control (typically used with 24 VDC or 120 VAC line power). Single and multivariable transmitters are supported.
Connectivity options include wireline, data radio, wireless Ethernet, GPRS, EDGE, FatPipe® SCADA and Internet based monitoring and control schemes. Theta XSPOC, Case Services csLift, Intellution®, Wonderware®, Asset Trakker® and RSView® hosts are supported.
Water injection controllers for secondary oil recovery and Salt Water Disposal (SWD) controllers measure fluid flow and operate control valves to satisfy volume and pressure requirements. Turbine meter, orifice plate, wedge meters, ultrasonic or Coriolis meters provide flow rate and accumulate data.
Water Alternating Gas (WAG) systems are available for enhanced oil recovery systems. Flowing well controllers help optimize oil production boosted by carbon dioxide. Special purpose RTUs or PLC based WAG platforms with NIST-14 calculations for recycled CO2 are available.
Pipeline monitoring and control systems protect production. Compressor station SCADA systems are designed and built to client specifications.
Rod pump controllers are available for constant speed or variable frequency drives. Natural gas engine RPCs are under development.
Facility units for well testing, tank battery leak detection and theft protection, etc. are designed and built to customer specifications. LACT units and custody transfer PLC based EFM systems are available as pre-engineered or custom built configurations.
