This one was on a very tight time schedule, after a water leak inside the building knocked out 2 x MSSB’s serving the main plant room. MECS where engaged to build (Design & Manufacturer) the new MSSB’s, install them onsite and recommission the controls along...
Decommissioning and Controls Upgrade The project began with safe isolation and strip-out of the old plant and control gear. The tired infrastructure was removed, making way for the new MSSB and controls system that would provide reliable operation for the upgraded chiller and pump arrangement. Installation and...
Design and Separation To ensure compliance, MECS designed the layout so that all electrical control cabinets were installed in a dedicated service room. This separation provided a clear barrier between live electrical equipment and the compressor space, minimising the risk of ignition from flammable vapours. Fire Sealing...
Execution Strategy Installation and Wiring Positioned the switchboard within a confined plant room, coordinating lift access and clearances. Completed all terminations for pumps, fans, and control circuits, integrating with existing site infrastructure. Applied stainless‑steel fabrication and corrosion‑resistant fittings to suit the coastal environment. Testing and Commissioning Performed insulation, continuity, and functional...
Execution Strategy: Pre-Construction & Planning Collaborated with builders and refrigeration contractors to coordinate timing, site access and infrastructure requirements. Scoped electrical load demands for expanded display cases and back-of-house chillers. Planned staged shutdowns to avoid disruption to surrounding tenancies and minimise downtime. Fitout and Installation Supplied and installed submains, final circuits...
Execution Strategy: Installation & Integration Installed 4 MCCs fitted with Allen Bradley ControlLogix processors and safety I/O. Commissioned 600 kW Danfoss VSDs to modulate compressor speed and ABB VSDs on evaporator fans and pumps. Implemented power‑monitoring relays and soft‑starters to AS/NZS 3000 standards. Testing & Optimisation Performed full functional testing of interlocks, E‑stop circuits,...
Execution Strategy: Design, Fabrication and Logistics Developed 3‑D models and isometrics to ensure perfect alignment once re‑assembled. Completed factory‑acceptance testing (FAT) for instrumentation loops, MCC wiring and PLC I/O. Disassembled the skid package into six road‑freight modules under Main Roads WA limits. Coordinated heavy haulage and permits for the multi‑day...
Execution Strategy: Installation and Integration Installed the BACnet controller and configured it to synchronise with the PPAC unit. Integrated the Fusion Wall controller and sensors to provide an intuitive interface for staff. Ensured the system complied with industry standards and energy efficiency requirements. Testing and Optimisation Conducted a full system check...
As part of an upgrade to its sports facilities, Morley Senior High School required a modern and reliable electrical system for its gymnasium. The project aimed to enhance the facility's electrical capacity, ensure safety compliance, and integrate advanced communication and security systems to support the...
As part of its infrastructure enhancement initiatives, Coles Supermarkets commissioned an electrical upgrade at its Bunbury location to improve energy efficiency, safety, and operational reliability. The project required meticulous planning and execution to upgrade critical electrical systems without disrupting daily store operations. Execution Strategy: Assessment and Planning:...
