Project Engineering

Our project team of Electrical and Mechanical Design/Project Engineers deal
with contracts small and large, of all types either directly for water companies
or indirectly working alongside civil contractors or consultants.

This encompasses all aspects of M&E work.

• Actuated valves and penstock systems
• Pumping systems (submersible, vertical multistage, air scour pumps etc.)
• Tipping buckets
• Associated valves and pipework (materials include ductile iron up to
  900mm nominal bore, ABS, UPVC, MAPE, steel and stainless steel)
• Flowmeters (electromagnetic, air etc.)
• Instrumentation (flow, level, pressure etc.)
• Cabling – NICEIC approved on installation
• Dosing systems
• Open flooring and hand railing
• Mixers and macerator systems
• Control panels
• GRP kiosks
• Pumps and pumping station refurbishment
• Electrical & Mechanical works
• Gearbox provision repair and refurbishment
• Maintenance contracts – repair response and planned maintenance regimes
• Labour only contracts for “peak lopping” and shut downs

All work is carried out in line with the latest customer specifications and to the current WIMES documentation. All drawings, GA detail and "as built", are provided using state of the art CAD technology, copies of which are provided to clients in all specified sizes and in electronic format.

All installation work is undertaken by our own installation engineers, who are fully trained in both mechanical and electrical disciplines, and who are under the direct control of our own project engineers – thus alleviating potential problems with using sub-contractors.

Fully detailed method statements and risk assessment documentation is made available  for inspection/approval prior to any engineer attending site to undertake any task.

Full commissioning and training documentation alongside O&M manuals prior to system hand over are also available. On-site training seminars of operation and maintenance personnel are also catered for.

• Actuator retrofit and automation
• Turnkey M&E projects
• Filter refurbishment and upgrades
• Actuator repairs
• M&E contracting
• Single source contract management for multi-skilled disciplines

The company's strength derives from its total independence and the ability  to carry out a variety of contracts, ranging from a simple actuator repair to major turnkey schemes, with contracts valued from a few hundred pounds upwards.

Our systems and procedures allow us to complete each contract, regardless of size, with enthusiasm, dedication and to the complete satisfaction of the customer. We pride ourselves on our flexibility, being able to work to a host of client specifications whilst maintaining competitive prices.

Our in-house design, manufacture and installation capabilities provide us with the opportunity to maintain full quality control at all stages of any contract, especially when linked with our quality control system.

We consider it to be a primary asset that all our activities are contained within one company, divided only by trading disciplines to provide a fully focussed service committed to ensuring highest standards of quality performance.

All project tenders are prepared and designs completed on our CAD systems before being processed ready for contracting and putting into manufacture, prior to delivery to site, installation and commissioning by Clayton's own qualified and experienced engineers.

With all the many activities on offer from one company it is essential that we never allow ourselves to offer anything less than the best quality service. In order to ensure this high quality is retained we have one common mission across all our activities and that is the commitment to deliver the highest quality service to ensure full customer satisfaction.

The activities we offer are:-

Control Solutions

‘In House’, Clayton design and assemble control panels and MCC's to individual customer specification prior to delivery, manufacture, installation and commissioning if required.

These consist of the full range of control technologies from hard wired logic through to PLC based schemes, which includes software modifications of existing schemes, to full turnkey process control, instrumentation and automation projects.

We can produce everything from a single pushbutton enclosure up to multi-cubicle assemblies consisting of soft starts, direct on-line, inverter drives and star delta starters.

Size is not prohibitive, large panels will be built as 2.4 metre segments. All panels are ASTA certified.

We have experience of PLC software such as Omron, Allen Bradley, Sattcon and Mitsubishi but others can easily be accommodated.

Full witnessed tests are available on request in our Penistone factory.

On and Off Site Services

We offer specialist servicing and maintenance support specifically aimed at any type or manufacture of valves, valve actuators and all M&E Plant. We also offer either on or off site service and support with emergency call-outs if required.

Our Penistone works is fully equipped with special tooling and testing facilities to ensure that all actuators leave our factory fully tested, calibrated and certified.

Through our Alliance Services we can offer specialist machining and testing of valves including penstocks and the Larner Johnson flow control valves plus other makes and types as required. Service of these valves is also available on-site.

Boiler maintenance shut-down can be completed by either on or off site inspection
and or maintenance of the valves and valve actuators.

Fog Signal Detonators

For many years we have been manufacturing Fog Signal detonator safety devices for the railway industry. Today we still manufacture the fog signal detonators to the same tried and trusted specifications, with demand still as high as ever.
