Map of sites visited in September

Paul Deacon – Lead Technical Engineer

Our Lead Technical Engineer Paul was out and about all over the UK last month. He installed 3 new MicroMac Analysers and made some routine visits to the Bourne Leisure.

He first installed and commissioned a MicroMac Ammonia monitor at Anglian Water Cliff Quay, he also installed this monitor with the help of Sales Engineer Paul Norman.

The second installation was a New MicroMac Total Phosphorus Analyser installation and a 7300w² Monitor and TurbiTechw² LS Sensor commissioning at Wessex Water East Knoyle.

The final Installation was another MicroMac Total Phosphorus analyser installed at South West Water Kilmington. After installing the final MicroMac, Paul had a few routine visits to some bourne leisure group hotels: Cricket St Thomas, Littlecote House and Thoresby Hall. These hotels all have their own small water treatment works that use our 7300w² Monitor and TurbiTechw² Sensors to measure suspended solids. They also have a few MicroMac Ammonia analysers.

Rupert Phillips – Technical Engineer

Rupert has been busy this month as well, he has done a lot of general technical support visits across Cornwall as well as a few analyser service contract visits and suspended solids calibrations.

Paul Norman – Sales Engineer

Aquasense are expanding their sales and engineering team. Paul was at their offices near Vejle providing product training and demonstrations. They also covered the different market sectors that Aquasense work in and how Partechs product range can be used. It was a useful visit for both Partech and Aquasense and will help both companies work closer together in the future.

The Trip to Italy

The week commencing 9th September some of our Partech engineers went on a trip to Anagni in Italy to visit Systea Analytical Technologies.

SYSTEA S.p.A. is an Italian company established in 1988 with the objective to develop, manufacture and sell automatic wet chemistry analyzer for environmental and industrial markets. – Systea Analytical Technologies 

Systea invited 3 Partech staff to visit their factory in Anagni, Italy recently. The purpose of the visit was to provide additional technical training on the Systea range of Micromac C wet chemistry analysers. During the visit the Partech team were given a tour of the factory and spent 2 days with the Systea staff. The visit was very useful for the team and further reinforces the good working relationship between Partech and Systea. In 2019 Partech have installed in excess of 20 Micromac C’s in the UK.

‘Systea visit was very worthwhile, good to see the build and test process and gave us a deeper understanding of the analysers.’ – Rupert Phillips
