Project Description:
SPEC worked with Donovan Engineering and Construction as a design-build team to install a new Air Dryer / Filter system for Astra/Zenica pharmaceuticals in Westborough, MA. SPEC provided the engineering design documents, for piping and electrical installations. SPEC’s contracting group coordinated the trades, and contracts for the installation, and built an Intellution Fix SCADA system to monitor, record and alarm the compressed air dryer system, for the Astra-Zeneca plant in Westborough, MA.
Controls engineers from SPEC worked with the equipment manufacturer to modify PLC code, to get the required data from the controlling PLC. The SCADA System screens were designed to the client’s corporate standards.
Key Successes:
- A comprehensive Design / Build approach that met the client’s strict schedule and quality requirements.
- Early coordination between SPEC’s controls division with the equipment vendor to provide packaged control system, which is easily, integrated the plant-wide data networks, and follows corporate equipment standards.
