Instrument Engineering
The advent of the microchip and microprocessors have revolutionized the entire instrumentation and control industry. Today’s projects demand state-of-the-art controls to guarantee a competitive operation. Good control can reduce raw material, utilities, and labor costs as well as resulting in very high quality of the items produced. That is why the portion of the installed cost given to the controls has increased so dramatically.
EPC pays special attention to this important area. Several of our Project Managers have controls and instrumentation backgrounds. This assures that our approach to this critical area is central to our services
