Instrument and process plant commissioning.

By fully qualified instrument technicians who understand your process.

Whether it's a new plant, an expansion or some plant optimisation, tell us what you need and we'll put a crew and a plan together to suit your needs.

Plant Commissioning, The Instrowest difference

With twenty years commissioning and supporting processing plants across WA, we know what it takes to get your plant up to nameplate throughput and beyond sooner. Here's how we work, whether it's a new plant, an expansion or optimisation, Instrowest has you covered.

What we cover

Poorly commissioned instrumentation can reduce plant availability, throughput and process recovery. Instrowest supports commissioning from instrument calibration and loop testing through to plant start-up and final handover, identifying problems before they affect production.

Instrument calibration

Pressure, temperature, flow, level, density, weight, liquid and gas analytics, control valves and final control elements. Everything on your plant is calibrated before start-up, using calibration tooling that is NATA calibrated every twelve months.

Belt weightometer commissioning & calibration

Known as the premium belt weightometer service provider in mineral processing, on any make and model. Chain calibrated under real running conditions, so your tonnage is right from the first run.

Loop checking & function testing

Every loop is checked from field device back to the control system, and every instrument function tested. Critical systems are fully function tested to ensure cause and effects work as required, imagine destroying your brand new SAG mill or crusher when a lubrication fault occurs, we test these systems fully.

Control valve & positioner set-up

Control valves, positioners and I/P transducers set up, stroked and tuned so the plant responds the way it's meant to once you're running.

Control philosophy changes

Often during commissioning we find that the control philosophy needs to be changed or improved to achieve better process outcomes. At Instrowest we work with your process control engineers and managers to ensure you are left with an optimised system that works well with the plant instrumentation.

Loop tuning & process optimisation

At Instrowest we can assist with process plant optimisation. We will work alongside your processing team to tune loops and find bottlenecks. This often results in immediate process improvements and a greater return on your investment.

Something else on your project?

Installation, pre-commissioning, or a hand alongside your own team. If it isn't on the list, ask us anyway. There's a good chance we can still cover it.

Instrowest project support trailer

Purpose-built

Project support trailer

Purpose-built for project support

Instrowest's custom-built project support trailer was designed and built specifically to serve clients on site. It brings together a workshop, office, clean room and crib facility in one mobile unit, carrying specialist calibration equipment, tools, commonly used consumables and everything needed for document control, so crews can arrive on site, set up quickly and work as independently as possible. Handy when you're commissioning somewhere remote with limited facilities.
