Electrical, Instrumentation & Controls
We provide field engineering and implementation services for electrical, instrumentation, and control systems supporting new installations, expansions, and existing manufacturing operations.
JC Automation provides hands-on electrical, instrumentation, and controls (EI&C) field services to pharmaceutical and life science manufacturers. Our field engineers and technicians support new installations, tie-ins, expansions, and ongoing maintenance of instrumentation and control systems — from instrument loop checks and calibration to electrical panel hook-up and data systems installation — in regulated manufacturing environments.
What We Do
- Instrumentation Installation & Commissioning — field installation, wiring, and commissioning of transmitters, flow meters, pressure gauges, temperature sensors, analyzers, and other process instruments
- Loop Checks — end-to-end loop verification covering signal integrity, calibration, and correct representation in the control system
- Calibration Services — instrument calibration with traceable standards and records prepared for validation and regulatory review
- Control Panel Hook-Up — field wiring of control panels to devices, power supplies, and communication networks
- PLC & Remote I/O Field Work — physical installation and connection of PLC chassis, remote I/O racks, and associated wiring
- Electrical & Data Systems — installation and termination of conduit, cabling, and data/network infrastructure
- Startup Support — on-site technical support during system startup, issue resolution, coordination, and documentation
- As-Built Documentation — red-line markups, as-built drawings, calibration records, and loop check packages
Why Choose JCA
- Regulated Environment Experience — field personnel experienced in active pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities and GMP procedures.
- Documentation to Validation Standards — calibration records, loop check packages, and as-built documentation developed to support IQ/OQ and regulatory inspection.
- Coordinated with Automation Teams — EI&C field activities aligned with automation, control system design, and commissioning schedules.
- Fast Mobilization — resources in Puerto Rico and project capability across the US support urgent schedules and operational needs.
- Full Scope Coverage — scalable support ranging from individual instruments to plant-wide EI&C scopes.
- Safety-First Culture — field execution aligned with LOTO, arc flash, confined space, and site-specific safety requirements.
