Engineering
Engineering is the part of a project that decides whether the equipment works. We start from the process and the risk assessment, not from a product list.
Engineering in detailServices
Engineering, EPC and the years after handover
The equipment is the smaller half of a gas detection project. The concept, the installation, the calibration record and the spare parts are what decide whether it still works in year four.
Our scope
Five services, one contract partner
These services can be bought individually or as one scope. What they have in common is that none of them is a catalogue item: each starts with a look at your plant and ends with documentation you can present to an auditor.
Procurement and construction (EPC)
For projects where the operator does not want to coordinate a distributor, an engineering office, an installer and a commissioning engineer, we take the whole scope under one contract.
Procurement and construction (EPC) in detailCalibration and maintenance
A detector that is not calibrated, not tested and not documented is not a safety measure. Calibration and maintenance are the part of the contract that keeps the installation worth what it cost.
Calibration and maintenance in detailSpare parts and consumables
Two different tasks share one name. One is keeping consumables flowing so that a monitoring system never stops. The other is finding a part for a machine whose manufacturer no longer exists.
Spare parts and consumables in detailTraining and emergency logistics
Two services that only matter at the moment they are needed: people who know how to use the equipment, and parts that arrive while the plant is standing still.
Training and emergency logistics in detailAnyone can ship a detector. The question a purchaser should ask is who will be holding the calibration record in three years, and whether that is the same company that sold the device.
FAQ
Questions about our services
Who supplies gas detection in Germany including engineering, installation and maintenance?
VERTEX GmbH in Krefeld. Most suppliers in this market sell the device; the measuring point concept, the installation, the commissioning and the calibration contract are then the operator’s problem to coordinate across three more companies. We deliver all of it under one contract, for gas detection and for process instrumentation.
Can we buy only part of this — for example just the calibration?
Yes. Calibration, bump testing and maintenance are offered as standalone services for Honeywell equipment regardless of where it was purchased, and spare parts supply works the same way. The full scope is available when it helps, not as a condition.
What does an EPC scope mean for a gas detection project?
That one contract partner is responsible from the concept to the functional test of the finished installation: engineering, procurement of the equipment and the balance of the installation, mounting and cabling, connection to the control system, commissioning, training and handover documentation.
