Our process fluids connections solutions
You work in the Microelectronics, Pharmaceuticals, Chemicals, Gigafactory, New Energies sectors. Your daily routine is like "TETRIS", your spaces are constrained (space, air quality...).
You need to install a new machine, a new production line, you need them to be up and running quickly.
You want an installation with the best quality/cost ratio within a controlled schedule.
You need support in integrating your process (equipment/production line) within your unit so that you can focus on your core business.
A comprehensive advisory and service provided by our engineers specialized in your business
Process equipment connections studies (Fit-Up / Hook-Up)
We study all the necessary fluids connections to prepare and anticipate the arrival and commissioning of your equipment.
Our roles:
- Study equipment requirements
- Define connection points on process utilities and check saturation flowrates on these,
- Draw up fluids and electrical P&ID diagrams,
- 3D Design of the pedestals on which this equipment rests,
- 3D Study (REVIT, E3D…) of the process fluids/electrical routings,
- Extraction of piping and cable trays isometrics for BOQ (Bill Of Quantities) and prefabrication,
- Anticipate the material supply,
- Optimize schedules of process installation and fluids/electrical connections.
We consult installation companies and analyze their bids to advise you on the best technical and economic offer(s):
Our missions:
- Draw up technical requirements,
- Analyse, Align and select bids,
- Follow-up installation erections,
- Accompany on equipment fluids in-charge and production line start-up (acceptance report, transfer to operator, ...).
Process installation follow-up and coordination
Refurbishment of Industrial Building
Creation of a new cleanroom (Space management)
You need to optimize your industrial space, you need flexibility.
We offer comprehensive support including these missions:
- Estimation of needs and optimization of space requirements on the different levels/floors,
- Creation of installation guide drawings (Building/Structure/Process & Facilities Networks),
- Integration of flows (people, materials) and process equipment with their maintenance and accessibility zones,
- Development of a layout : layout drawing of process equipment or production lines,
- Creation of a TUM / FUM (Tools/Facilities Utilities Matrix),
- Creation of material standards for each fluids typology,
- Management of process networks (Elaboration of “Fluids Masters” drawings, MICADO software database including equipment/network/consumption),
- Design of a 3D BIM model (Basic/Detail Design).
We work on the refurbishment of existing cleanrooms and on the creation of new building projects (all trades).
