At Powers of Automation (POA), we are a full-service system integration company. We serve as a single source for all filtration system needs, assisting customers in designing, building, testing, commissioning, validating, maintaining, and integrating equipment that fully meets their needs. Whether they’re looking for a standard or specialized filtration solution, we are here to help!
Our filtration system service offerings include:
Filtration systems collect and remove particulates, pollutants, and other unwanted substances from fluid (liquid or gas) streams. While all filtration systems have the same end goal—i.e., ensuring the fluid and, consequently, the fluid system continue to meet application/industry-specific requirements and restrictions—different types may use unique material separation parts or processes to achieve it. For example, air filters utilize specialized filtration elements (e.g., fabric, ceramic, or sintered metal cartridges or bags) to trap dry particles and contaminants within air or gas streams. In the industrial sector, they keep facility air clean and safe for employees, equipment, and the environment in the surrounding area.
Many industrial companies rely on filtration systems. Typical applications include air lines, gas, oil, and other fuel lines, hydraulic fluid lines, and water lines. In addition to using them to protect their people and processes, they employ them to comply with industry regulations. These guidelines outline the acceptable content range for specific compounds within fluid streams to maintain safe, clean, and efficient operations.
Filtration Services at POA
- Filtration System Survey and Inspection Our filtration system surveys and inspections focus on assessing the current condition to understand what type of applications would be best. We examine existing systems to identify bypass issues, structural damage, cleanliness, installation process, filter efficiency goals and presence of mold as well as systems that can benefit from outside air intake screening. Following our examination process, we provide recommendations on the next steps toward improvement.
- Filter Installation and Change Out Our highly experienced and knowledgeable team can offer filter installation support for new and/or existing systems. Our teams can accommodate both scaled and turnkey installation support options. We offer comprehensive assistance with filter change-out operations per best practices. From purchasing the filter to installing it, our team can handle every aspect from cradle to grave. All change-out assistance projects are conducted by experienced, NCT-1 – (NAFA Certified Technicians) and overseen by a in-house, NAFA-CAFS (Certified Air Filtration Specialist).
- Operating Cost Comparative Analysis Our operating cost comparative analysis capabilities ensure customers find the best filtration system for their operational requirements and budgetary restrictions. We compare the cost of installation and maintenance with the benefits experienced by investing in the equipment (e.g., improved efficiency, increased safety, enhanced productivity, etc.) to verify customers receive the greatest value.
- Filtration Schedule and Asset Management Our world-class asset management database enables us to track filter inventory and change outs requirements for our customers. As a result, customers can rest easy in the knowledge that their filter inventory will be managed and changed on time. We help customers plan regular maintenance, provide replacement filters and components, conduct repairs, and specify a replacement system when necessary.
- Dedicated Filtration Storage Our dedicated filtration storage provides the customers’ filter inventory with a clean, secure storage environment allowing quick access as needed. This program is designed to free up space in the clients facility while adding redundancy to their inventory programs.
- HEPA, ULPA & SULPA Replacement & Integrity Testing We work with our industry partners to provide clients with “Direct” and “Like & Kind” replacement options, matching their application requirements. Our installation teams provide turnkey options to keep client assets and processes running smoothly. Our support does not end at installation. POA’s Instrumentation Technicians provide in situ HEPA filter integrity tests to validate an asset is meeting the required specifications.
- Custom Filtration Solutions Whether an application is highly complex or specific, the experts at POA have the knowledge and skills to develop the custom filtration solution to perfectly suit your specifications and standards.
