Automation
of rotating machinery
Control and monitoring solutions for
compressors, turbines and pumps.
Reliable automation for safe and efficient operation
Rotating machines are essential to industrial processes. To ensure smooth operation, technical expertise, specific know-how, and reliable control systems are crucial.
We develop automation solutions that are precisely tailored to your machines, processes and operating conditions. The goal is clear: safe, efficient, and maintenance-friendly operation throughout the entire life cycle.
Customised control and protection concepts for complex machinery
International approvals, worldwide commissioning
Integration into existing control systems and infrastructures
Expertise in explosion protection, machine safety, and cyber security
Qualified quotation support for machine and plant manufacturers
Individual solutions with powerful impact
Every machine, every process, and every operational setting is different. That’s why our solutions are customized and based on specific requirements.
Steam turbine-driven multi-stage centrifugal compressor
A new control system was supplied for a power plant for three turbo compressors that provide the fuel gas for the gas turbine. The container solution included complete I&C and safety technology, as well as low-voltage switchgear, UPS and air conditioning.
Automation of reciprocating compressors
Supply of control technology for five large piston compressors to enable hydrogen transformation in a steel mill. Each machine has its own control system, featuring modern, redundant, and safety-oriented PLC systems from Siemens.
Automation of parallel pumps
Delivery of a central control system with a redundant PLC for three pumps. Two pumps are driven by a steam turbine and one pump by an electric motor. In addition to the turbine control, a load sharing scheme for the pumps has been implemented.
Solutions at highest international level
Controlling rotating machinery requires more than standard solutions. Our systems combine safety, robustness, and flexibility – based on modern control technologies, precise instrumentation and comprehensive application know-how.
Our in-depth project and domain expertise guarantees that each automation system meets both technical and operational requirements.
PLC and DCS-based control systems (e.g. Siemens, Rockwell, Triconex, Woodward, Hoerbiger)
Anti-surge und performance control
Dynamic simulation according to API617 and virtual commissioning
Integration of MMS systems (BN3500, Orbit 60, B&K, etc.)
Visualization, HMI and industrial communication
SIL-compliant safety technology
Instrumentation and electrical skid installation
Anti-surge control for safe and efficient compressor operation
Surging is without doubt one of the most dangerous operating conditions for turbo compressors. It leads to high loads, increased wear and, in the worst case, expensive failures.
AviComp is an expert in developing reliable surge control systems. Our solutions detect critical conditions early on and intervene appropriately — scalable and seamlessly integrable into existing control systems.
Our solutions are built on modular architecture, modern visualization, individually parameterized control logic, and proven surge protection. This ensures stable processes and ease of use.
On request, we take care of instrumentation, commissioning, and training.
High operational safety and plant availability
Seamless integration into existing DCS and PLC systems
Adaptation from simple to complex compressor configurations
Robust against changing suction conditions and gas composition
Patented surge protection for maximum safety
