Equipment Modification
Overview

  • ​At Powell, our local in-house calibration capabilities facilitate a fast and efficient turnaround time for all
    equipment. Our skilled technicians receive, inspect, service, repair and return your instruments with a
    certificate of calibration.
    Calibration is an important routine necessary to maintain equipment. While there are many factors that
    could influence a measurement device, ruling out, out-of-tolerance equipment is a great first step in
    mitigating risk.

  • Application for our Equipment Modification services are virtually endless. They can be as simple as extending an existing Powell switchgear assembly with additional sections or turning an existing space into a functional feeder. They can also be much more extensive such as removing existing Powell switchgear, re-conditioning it at our state-of-the-art service facility, and re-installing it for its new role.
     
    But that is not the end. Existing equipment from virtually any manufacturer can be upgraded and re-purposed as needed. This can not only extend the life of your existing hardware, but can be a cost effective solution.
     
    Let Powell assist with your assessment and plan the modification and life extension of your facility.

  • The modification of existing equipment requires both expertise and preparation if it is to be time and cost effective. The best solution for you is to take advantage of Powell and our depth of experience.
     
    Many modifications can be made at the jobsite in your facility. Other, more extensive efforts, may require removal and the shipment of your equipment to one of our service facilities.
     
    Irrespective of the plan, Powell is perfectly suited to make certain your project is accomplished on-time and on-budget.

  • The decision process on equipment modification requires input from a range of disciplines. It may impact your operational status as equipment is taken out of service. It may impact your maintenance staff and their ability to be available.
     
    This is where Powell expertise can help. We have completed thousands of these projects with all levels of complexity and difficulty. Our experience can help with not just the equipment decisions, but preparation and planning as well.

  • Proper execution of an Equipment Modification project requires more than basic engineering. We realize that no one knows your specific application better than you. From a project management point of view, no one has more experience in planning for the modification than Powell. Our Project management expertise can mean the difference between an effort with unexpected delays and one with the right equipment, the right tools, the right timing, and the right preparation.
     
    Let us help your project be a smooth transition from existing equipment in need of modification to one where your equipment matches the current facility need.
