PROTEC was provided with a general idea and asked to design and produce a Smart HPU with the ability to supply 10,000 psi control fluid distributed to a 5 output station control valve manifold that could be controlled from a customer’s office by field telemetry. The unit had to be compact enough to be delivered by air freight. The system had to have all the necessary automation ability to control and data log a complex pressurization sequence that will be infinitely varied. We managed control by a high end PLC interfacing with a dedicated HMI. PROTEC provided the design, construction and PLC programming. The customer provided the objective and manufacturing constraints and standards. The resulting PROTEC equipment meets the customer’s criteria and will provide them with a standard product that they can confidently market.
