Controls, Automation & Monitoring Case Studies

Remote Monitoring Keeps Pump Station Energy Costs Low

T-T Controls® were alerted to an overrun alarm by a Seer Advanced unit installed on a housing development’s pumping station in Weir Hill, on the outskirts of Shrewsbury. The team accessed the Seer® Portal for closer inspection and noticed that, despite the affected pump running constantly, the station’s wet well levels were not lowering.

After the initial alert was received, our team remotely accessed and analysed the station’s live operational data to pinpoint the cause of the pump overrunning.

Bespoke Control Panels for Process Automation

A local material handling company came to T-T with specifications for three control panels needed to automate processes in a large parcel delivery warehouse for a major logistics client. The builds were bespoke, designed by a third-party consultant and required a fast turnaround to fit with the new site opening.

Our skilled technical team were able to complete the order and fulfil the client’s manufacturing needs within their required build programme, utilising our in-house technical assembly, wiring and testing facilities.

Cost-Effective Bespoke Pump Station Controls

A local water authority came to T-T Controls® in need of a control panel for an effluent pumping station set to be installed on a small housing development. Due to the low number of houses on the site and budget restrictions faced by the authority, the client was seeking a lower cost control solution than a standard adoptable style panel.

Our experts designed and manufactured a bespoke control system that met the needs of the local water authority to take over while keeping manufacturing costs low.

Customised Control Panels for Off-Grid Water System

T-T Controls® provided two sets of control panels for villages within the Democratic Republic of the Congo in Africa. The Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur are a Roman Catholic institute, founded to provide education to the poor. The group provides support to people living in poverty in the most abandoned places.

T-T provided two sets of customised control panels, which operate the system to extract and transport the water into a set of storage tanks, to the villages.

Bespoke Kiosk for Adoptable Pump Station Control Panel

T-T Controls® provided a bespoke kiosk solution for an adoptable pumping station site with limited installation space.

Due to strict adoptable pumping station design requirements, the kiosk needed to fit a double motor control onto the site's small parcel of land while still complying with Design Construction Guidance.
