PLC and SCADA automation in Cape Town

Practical control, monitoring and telemetry solutions that improve operating visibility, alarm response and equipment coordination.

Engineering support built around the site.

Automation should make an operation easier to understand and support. AfriTech develops and troubleshoots PLC, controller, HMI and SCADA functions with attention to the actual process, failure modes and the people responsible for the equipment.

Work can include new controls, upgrades, alarm rationalisation, remote visibility and integration with generators, HVACR, refrigeration or energy systems. Documentation and maintainability remain part of the engineering scope.

Questions clients ask before we start.

Can you troubleshoot an existing PLC-controlled system?

Yes. Useful starting information includes the controller make and model, alarm history, drawings, backups and a clear description of the failed sequence.

Do you provide remote monitoring?

Yes, where the site network, cybersecurity requirements and supported controller interfaces allow it.

Can automation be integrated with generators or refrigeration?

Yes. These systems often benefit from coordinated alarms, operating status, trends and remote visibility.
