Benfield Control Systems (BCS) · Engineering & field services
The service menu, not just the division name.
Benfield Control Systems offers electrical engineering services and technical expertise for the equipment it builds and the equipment it didn't. Below is what you can actually call and ask for. For the division itself, its history and its named projects, see Benfield Control Systems.
Engineering, in-house
Ask before the equipment is ordered.
BCS provides in-house software development for PLCs and HMIs, power monitoring and SCADA systems, full design and drawing capability, short circuit coordination and arc flash studies, and value engineering for your project.
- In-house PLC and HMI software development
- Software written and maintained by the same group that will be answering the phone if it needs changing later.
- Power monitoring and SCADA system design
- Built to watch the equipment Benfield's own counter also supplies the parts for.
- Full design and drawing capability
- Complete design and drawing work carried in-house, not farmed out to a third party.
- Short circuit coordination and arc flash studies
- The paperwork a facility needs before anyone opens a panel door.
- Value engineering
- A second look at a spec to find where the design can cost less without doing less.
Ask after the equipment is running
Field services on new equipment or somebody else's.
Field services cover start-up and commissioning, preventative maintenance, monitoring services, repairs, PLC programming and troubleshooting on new and existing equipment, and certified NETA testing. BCS integrates Allen Bradley, Siemens, GE, Mitsubishi, Eaton and other PLC platforms, so a mixed-vendor plant isn't a reason to call somewhere else.
- Start-up and commissioning
- Getting a system running on site, not just shipping it and hoping.
- Preventative maintenance
- Scheduled attention before a control system becomes an emergency call.
- Monitoring services
- Ongoing eyes on equipment after it goes live.
- Repairs
- Work on equipment that is already down.
- PLC programming and troubleshooting
- New and existing equipment, whoever originally programmed it.
- Certified NETA testing
- Testing performed and certified to NETA standards.
Bring us the job, not just the part number
A call gets you a rep. A rep gets you an engineer.
Say what you need in plain terms, whether it's a panel that needs troubleshooting or a system that hasn't been designed yet, and it gets routed to someone in BCS who actually does that work. See what BCS has already built and commissioned on Projects.
