Engineering and Repair
Services
A.B.L.E. Company has earned a strong reputation from having multiple
capabilities in the areas of control system design; control panel
construction; and field repair, calibration and testing services. For over 30
years, we have provided engineered solutions to many high profile government,
corporate and institutional accounts in the northeastern United States.
Design and Engineering Services
A.B.L.E. Company provides complete CAD-based design and engineering
solutions to major government, corporate and institutional clients in the
following areas:
- Coordinating watertube and
firetube boiler installations and upgrades, along with related support
systems including deaerators, economisers and additional heat recovery
equipment.
- Designing and evaluating custody
transfer fuel metering and leak detection systems to meet federal and state
regulations.
- Developing combustion, burner
management and process control logic designs that meet or exceed ANSI, IEEE,
ISA and NFPA standards.
- Providing full system and network
integration with other site utilities including HVAC, chilled water and power
cogeneration operations.
- Conducting general engineering
studies on site operating efficiencies, equipment cost-benefit analysis and
safety-related (e.g., NFPA compliance) issues; a licensed CT state Professional
Engineer is on staff.
- Developing federal and state
regulatory compliance programs designed to meet current safety and
environmental protection laws.
- Developing operation & maintenance
procedures and manuals; generating site engineering documentation and
drawings; and conducting formal operator training programs.
All documentation and drawings can be
provided in both printed and electronic formats - including AutoCad, Microsoft
Word, and any other client requested format.

will provide complete QC testing, calibration and startup services for all
components and control panels, and as required by our clients, full
engineering documentation including O&M manuals, control logic diagrams
and electrical circuit drawings.
Burner Management and Flame Safety
Systems
To meet all your needs, A.B.L.E. Company can draw on its significant
design, fabrication and configuration experience with burner management and
flame safety systems. We currently supply:
- Pre-programmed microprocessor
(Honeywell or Fireye type) and programmable logic controller (PLC) based burner
management and flame safety systems.
Systems suitable for:
-
single or multiple burner applications.
- single or multiple boiler
installations.
- lead-lag and feed forward
start up control strategies.
-
Complete CAD-based motor starter, trip protection and safety interlock
control logic designs.
- Stand alone cabinets and
insert panel upgrade packages.
- Solid-state electronic
conversions for older vacuum tube based flame safety systems.
- NFPA compliant fuel oil and
natural gas safety shut off valves and controls.
- Natural gas and bottled, or
tanked, propane gas light off systems.
To be sure that all safety requirements
are met, A.B.L.E. Company will only produce
systems that fully meet all current regulatory and NFPA standards for the safe
operation of steam and hot water generation plants.
Combustion Control Systems
A.B.L.E. Company is a well recognized leader in providing cost
effective combustion control solutions at the following levels:
- Fully-metered, cross-limited systems with
oxygen (i.e., excess air) trim for the ultimate level of control
accuracy and optimum boiler efficiency.
- Parallel-positioned, cross-limited systems
with oxygen trim for improved boiler efficiency at a moderate cost.
- Single point, jackshaft-type positioning
systems to meet tight capital expenditure requirements on smaller steam
and hot water generators.
In addition, A.B.L.E.
Company has had extensive design and field experience with all of the
leading microprocessor-based single loop, multiple loop and programmable
logic (PLC) controllers available on the market including:
- Allen-Bradley
- Fisher-Rosemount
- Modicon/SquareD/Schneider
- Siemens/Moore Products
- Preferred Utilities
- Westinghouse
- Yokogawa.
Our combustion control design solutions
range from simple, single point controls—as mentioned above—to
fully-metered, PLC-based, distributed control networks with state-of-the-art
TFT or CRT flat panel human-to-machine interfaces (HMI) and keypad or touch
screen inputs.
Combustion Testing,
Maintenance and Repair Services
For over 30 years, A.B.L.E. Company
has been recognized for its excellence in providing field testing,
maintenance and repair services to many high profile government, corporate
and institutional accounts in the Northeast. Our service engineers utilize
state-of-the-art testing equipment and can provide your facility with:
-
Cost effective annual service contracts for boiler control system
maintenance, troubleshooting, safety testing and efficiency improvements.
- Testing and reporting for
state environmental compliance.
- Complete ASME standard boiler
efficiency and optimization reports.
- 24-hour emergency services.
- Full instrumentation repair and
calibration services.
- A “one stop” parts source, even for systems that may be decades
old. If a part is still available, we probably can locate it.
