Installation and start-up are often two distinct different activities. Installation of Weldcoa’s
equipment can be performed in one of four ways with varying levels of involvement:
Once installation is completed, all electrical and piping must be completed before start-up. This will need to be managed and handled by a third-party contractor of the clients’ choice.
Start-up is always performed by Weldcoa. A team arrives on the scene once all electrical and pipe runs are complete. Our team will run through a pre-start checklist to make sure, for example, that the lines have been properly oxygen cleaned, that final electrical connections were performed properly and to spec, and to double inspect the equipment to make sure nothing has been damaged or altered prior to start-up. Once the checklist is complete, the start-up team will initiate formal start-up procedures. Once the equipment is up-and- running, our team will train your staff, perform handover procedure, and exit your property. (Service cost: Time, Material and Expenses.)
Note: All the Island Gas Piping, Control Air, and Valve installation work is done at Weldcoa prior to delivery.
Steve Hodges, Project Manager for B & J Welding Supply, Inc.The Weldcoa team didn’t leave here until they were sure we were comfortable with the equipment, and even now, long after the training has been completed, Weldcoa continues to respond to our phone calls and e-mail requests for support.”
Derek Piwonski,Specialty Gas Plant Supervisor/Chemist for Linde North AmericaWeldcoa’s on-site tech team also had to customize the PASS startup screen, making it much more user friendly to meet our unique requirements. That enables us, as we grow and add operators, to train them quickly on how to use the PASS system. The entire project became incredibly complex and demanding, and Weldcoa’s team never blinked. They took on a lot of extra work to ultimately save us a lot of time down the road. That level of flexibility and professionalism is what makes them a top-class organization.”
