What makes these systems unique to the industry is the flexibility for the owner to select the equipment and control platform to meet existing plant standards or needs. Also unique is the way the module is assembled.

Once erected, it resembles a normal process line. It can integrate into a traditional processing building, or is low profile enough to slide right into a warehouse type building. Connecting the electrical systems is truly a plug and play approach using safe disconnect rated plugs.

Erection couldn’t be simpler with an erect by number assembly. A process line can be making product approximately 15-20 days from delivery. State of the art control software is included, specifically tailored for the plant floor interfaces. Again, flexibility is the name of the game offering the owner a choice of control platforms or, if none preferred, Allen Bradley is used by default.

A compounding control center (CCC) accompanies the process module. All wiring to the field is minimized using Ethernet, remote I/O and intelligent MCC.

Apex and ACS have generations of systems in Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Saudi Arabia, United States and Asia.
