Control and Automation

We provide bespoke, SCADA/HMI systems, PLC control, automation modernising, telemetry, electrical design solutions and electrical commissioning across multiple industrial sectors.Our experienced engineers offer automation solutions in order to provide better efficiency, improved reliability, lower running costs, improved performance and lower energy usage. Our engineers have substantial experience in the execution of both large and small contracts.

All our automated solutions are developed and implemented in a fashion to minimise interruptions to production while the upgrade / maintenance work is being carried out. Our automation division also provides an aftersales service with preventive maintenance and breakdown coverage. We have a nationwide network of 50 engineers allowing us to provide a rapid response to emergencies.

Is your automation system running on borrowed time?

CSL's Control & Automation Division consists of dedicated Control Engineers who design, programme, commission and maintain a complete suite of control solutions including automation upgrades.

Risks of not modernising your automation system

  • Increasingly vulnerable to failure; updating the control system while the existing control system is operating is far more straightforward and more cost effective than upgrading the following a complete failure.
  • Lack of support for obsolete hardware, means lengthier downtime during equipment failures and higher costs to purchase the hardware.
  • Outdated software and hardware compatibly issue with modern systems.
  • Safety hazard, many existing controls panels have corrosion damage or the integrity of the panel has been compromised which increases the probability of electrocution.
  • No backups of the PLC/HMI/SCADA program.
  • No backup of user data.

Advantages of CSL’s Solutions

  • CSL provides in-house turnkey control solutions, using our expertise on all major PLC brands such as Allen Bradley, Siemens and Mitsubishi.
  • Off the shelf replacement parts.
  • Cost effective solutions, in many cases CSL can utilise existing assets such as motors, pumps, valves, MCCs, PLCs, SCADAs, HMIs, etc.
  • Eliminating down time; CSL solutions allow for the existing systems to be left in situ and operational until the new system is installed and tested both minimizing the changeover time and eliminating the need to shut down the plant during changeover
  • We provide Open Programs which are owned and controlled by the client.
  • The new installation will meet the current electrical regulation.
  • Increased performance.
  • Lower running costs and energy usage.
