🔧 Breathing new life into an existing IES pump control system ⚡💧
At IES, our engineering capabilities don’t stop when a control panel leaves our workshop. We understand that industrial processes evolve, equipment requirements change, and existing control systems sometimes need upgrading to meet increased operational demands.
Our latest project is a pump control panel upgrade, involving the replacement of an existing IES-designed and manufactured twin-pump control panel, originally supplied to control two smaller pumps.
With the pumping requirements increasing, the existing system needed to be upgraded to accommodate two larger 22 kW pumps, while maintaining the reliability, functionality and operational flexibility expected from an IES control system.
⚙️ Engineered for Increased Performance
Rather than simply replacing components, the project provides an opportunity to deliver a new, purpose-designed control panel built around the requirements of the upgraded pumping installation.
The new system incorporates:
✅ Twin 22 kW pump control – designed to accommodate the increased motor ratings and associated electrical demands.
✅ VEGA level instrumentation – providing accurate and reliable level measurement for automatic pump control.
✅ Automatic level-based operation – enabling the pumping system to respond to changing process levels.
✅ Updated electrical design – with equipment selected and rated for the larger pumps.
✅ Improved maintainability – with a modern panel layout designed to support straightforward servicing, fault finding and future maintenance.
💧 Intelligent Level Control with VEGA Instrumentation
Accurate level measurement is an essential part of any reliable pumping installation.
By incorporating VEGA level measurement technology into the new control system, pump operation can be managed automatically in response to the actual process conditions, helping maintain consistent operation and reducing the need for manual intervention.
🔧 Built on Our Own Engineering Experience
One of the advantages of upgrading an existing IES installation is our understanding of the original design and its operating principles.
This allows our electrical and automation engineers to build on the existing system’s proven functionality while introducing new equipment and control capabilities to meet the customer’s changing requirements.
From initial design and component selection through to panel manufacture, testing and commissioning, our focus remains on delivering practical, reliable and maintainable engineering solutions.
At IES, we don’t just build control panels. We develop long-term solutions that evolve alongside our customers’ operations.
Whether it’s a complete new installation, an upgrade to an existing control system or an increase in process capacity, our team has the experience to deliver.
