Hallfield Controls
is an engineering-driven company, with many of our other services supporting that engineering role. With our core controls competency, we specialize in the integration of off-the-shelf components of all form, fit, and function.
We engineer to the highest standards of the applicable codes.
- NFPA 70 (NEC)
- NFPA 79 (Electrical Standard for Industrial Machinery) for industrial settings
- UL508A (UL Standard for Safety for Industrial Control Panels)
- UL and IEC standards according to project requirements
We strive to develop every electrical system to the standards that govern our customers' markets.
Part of our engineering and design services includes a standard documentation set. We understand that contracting a company can be extremely beneficial but also risky - it can be hard to find good help. Until we build an extensive relationship with customers, we rely heavily on our documentation to establish a comfort level with what we will provide, effectively splitting a larger risk into smaller ones.
Our process starts with a comprehensive quote that communicates our understanding of their request as well as the services we will provide. For a quote on your project, call us today
at 763-360-9875.
After a quote's approval (as represented by a PO), we provide a full set of engineering and design documentation including a print package and control specification, if appropriate. Depending on design complexity, developing this package can be an iterative process with customers.
- Standard print packages are developed with AutoCAD Electrical and include electrical schematics, panel layouts, and bills of material (BOMs).
- For more complicated systems or solutions that involve programming, we also develop control specifications. These specifications describe the intended functionality along with screenshots of the proposed interface.
The goal of this documentation is to give customers enough information to understand and approve our concept.
Once the design is approved, we purchase the required material and move into the
manufacturing
phase. During this phase, we can develop or assist with both Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) and Site Acceptance Test (SAT) documentation. Throughout the process, it's our goal to provide sufficient documentation to effectively communicate the complete design.
