About ABLE Instruments and Controls Limited

 

 

 ISO9001:2008 Certificate

Background


ABLE Instruments & Controls Limited was founded in 1985 with the vision of providing instrumentation and control solutions for both process and research industries by applying the most suitable available technology for any given application.

Through having access to a comprehensive range of instrument technologies, from the traditional to the very latest, and having our package procurement team, Able can offer the best available solution to meet the demands of the measurement regardless of manufacturer. More importantly, our customers do not have to compare dissimilar products and work out the benefits and pitfalls for themselves.

Our application engineers cover disciplines including level, flow, temperature, pressure, density, humidity, moisture, gas analysis and  liquid analysis. Able are actively involved in most industry sectors as detailed by clicking here.

Our association with virtually all major companies within the control and instrumentation industry allows us, without prejudice, to also supply equipment from outside our standard scope of supply.

Detailed knowledge of the instrumentation / process control market and the purchasing power accumulated via package procurement contracts, allows Able to be extremely competitive under any circumstance.

Whilst we have a nationwide network of sales and support offices, our manufacture, calibration and repair facilities are located in the South East of the UK in Reading, Berkshire.

As an extension of our philosophy to provide total control and instrumentation solutions, we have expanded the test and calibration services available at Reading, to offer calibration of specific instrumentation.


ABLE operate in industrial and research environments where high technical standards of both equipment and personnel are expected. We employ only suitably qualified and experienced engineers. The highly technical nature of both our core products and those products outsourced, coupled with continual development and improvement, demand that intensive initial training be supported regularly by refresher training courses.

All engineering and technical staff are trained to such a level as to be capable of installing, commissioning and troubleshooting the equipment supplied. Able engineers regularly attend training courses run by sub-suppliers of specialist equipment.

The qualification and training records are fully reviewed, in accordance with our ISO9001:2008 quality assurance procedures, prior to delegation of any activity.

To ensure maximum concentration of technical expertise, we have a clearly defined departmental structure. This includes appropriately qualified personnel heading up each department a case in point is our IT department which includes a Microsoft certified systems engineer, therefore allowing us to incorporate the latest computing developments into day to day company operation.
