Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) panels are the central nervous system of modern industrial automation managing process sequences, interlocks, safety shutdowns, and communication across the full range of industrial plant and building services applications. Team Switchgear and Control LLC designs, assembles, programs, and tests custom PLC panels from our Dubai facility, using Siemens SIMATIC, Schneider Electric Modicon, and Allen Bradley ControlLogix platforms for clients across Oil & Gas, HVAC, Water Treatment, and Power Generation sectors in the UAE and GCC.
Our PLC Panel Engineering Capability
We provide a complete turnkey service from I/O list and cause & effect matrix development through hardware design, panel assembly, software programming, factory acceptance testing, and site commissioning. Every PLC panel we deliver is built around the client’s specific process requirements we do not use standard templates.

Can you supply PLC panels for hazardous areas in Zone 1?
Yes. We design and supply PLC panels for Zone 1 and Zone 2 classified hazardous areas using Ex p (purging and pressurisation) protection. The PLC typically a Siemens S7-1500 or S7-300 is housed within a certified Ex p enclosure with a BARTEC purge controller, maintaining positive internal pressure and preventing the hazardous atmosphere from contacting the PLC electronics. Full ATEX and IECEx documentation is supplied.
Do you provide ongoing support after commissioning?
Yes. We offer post-commissioning software support including secure remote VPN access for diagnostics, preventive maintenance visits, software version management, and emergency call-out. Many of our Oil & Gas clients retain our engineering team on an annual support agreement to ensure software continuity throughout the plant lifecycle.
