About
Equipment & Controls Inc (ECI) operates a 24/7 after-hours support line — a critical differentiator for facility managers and plant operators in Charleston, WV who cannot afford unplanned downtime on industrial automation and control systems. Headquartered in Charleston and serving West Virginia's heavy industrial corridor, ECI specializes in industrial automation, process control, instrumentation, and reliability services for refining, chemical processing, utilities, and large-scale manufacturing facilities. For facility and plant managers overseeing complex commercial or industrial properties, ECI provides distributed control systems (DCS), PLC services, SCADA systems, safety instrumented systems (SIS), and advanced process control — all of which are foundational to keeping electrical and mechanical infrastructure running within NEC and industry compliance frameworks. ECI's panel shop and fabrication solutions support custom control panel builds and skid-mounted systems, addressing power distribution and control needs across multi-site industrial campuses. Their rotating equipment services — including vibration analysis, lubrication and oil analysis, and root cause failure analysis — translate directly to reduced electrical system failures caused by mechanical load issues. Preventive maintenance and reliability assessment programs give facility managers structured uptime strategies rather than reactive repair cycles. ECI also holds deep expertise with Fisher digital valve controllers and Emerson AMS asset monitoring platforms, making them a strong partner for facilities running Emerson-ecosystem instrumentation. With multiple locations and a clear multi-site operational footprint, ECI is well-positioned to support property managers and general contractors coordinating electrical and automation upgrades across industrial parks, utility facilities, warehouses, and institutional campuses throughout the Charleston metro and broader West Virginia region.
