Our multi-discipline team of professionals provides consulting, design, control system, and packaged equipment skids for the water and wastewater operations of our industrial, water district and municipality customers.
PTI’s project portfolio includes a range of engineering and design as well as control and fabricated equipment projects supporting our clients’ water and wastewater operations.
Control panels and remote monitoring SCADA systems, SCADA-as-a-Service, motor control, VFDs, electrical systems with generator back-up, storage, pump and metering skids.
If you need to store-it, treat-in, move-it, measure-it, or watch-it from across town, our team can help.
Our passion is to use our engineering and design experience to create efficient solutions to challenging problems. From fine-tuning the smallest component to providing turnkey design-build services, our engineers and designers consider safety, efficiency, and resource conservation at every design stage.
Principal Technology's multi-discipline engineering departments combined with in-house control systems, fabrication, and manufacturing capabilities create a comprehensive System Integration ecosystem that provides single-point responsibility to execute our customer's most creative and demanding projects.
From small equipment skids that can fit in the back of a pick-up to large modular process units that ship by intermodal rail and waterway, our integrated process combines engineering, design, control systems, and fabrication to achieve our mission of providing Efficient Engineered Solutions.
The electrical engineers at Principal Technology have years of experience working on heavy commercial, industrial, and manufacturing projects. Our electrical engineers can provide engineering expertise to support your project design, permitting, construction, and operations, from new installations and facility expansions to performance, power, and safety studies.
The tightly integrated engineering, system integration, and fabrication professionals at Principal Technology allow us to support diverse project scopes for a broad range of clients in various market sectors. Design-Build, Build-to-Print; cold-hardware, or turn-key logic development, configuration, testing, and anything in between, our project team is accustomed to tailoring our product and service offerings to meet our client's specific project needs.
Electrical power systems of almost any type... from simple motor starters, electric heater power and control (HPP), variable frequency drives (VFDs), to advanced "smart" Motor Control Centers (MCCs)... Principal Technology's licensed engineers and System Integration & Fabrication group have the credentials, experience, and capabilities to take your project from Permit to Power-On.
Cloud Hosted SCADA and SCADA-as-a-Service platforms provide small and midsized operators security, hardware, software, and network management capabilities that parallel that of larger companies with dedicated IT departments.
Modular Process Equipment can reduce plant outage windows, improve construction schedules, increase safety and reduce construction costs by reducing on-site congestion during critical plant production outages.
Engineered VFD Panels with integral disconnects, over current protection, and configured for local-hand and remote-auto operation. Integral door-mounted HOAs and speed pots.
Motor Control Panels
Stand-alone combination motor control panels built to accommodate local-hand and remote-auto control prewired for remote command and running feedback to your control system.
SCADA Cloud Services
SCADA-as-a-Service and Cloud Hosted SCADA Platforms… eliminate on-premise server hardware, reduce IT management costs, and leverage commercial cellular and ISP infrastructure.
Standard Panels
PTI’s Engineering & Control System team developed a standard design approach to provide high-quality cost-effective control panels. Ask us about our 8, 16, and 32-Pack PLC panels.

Municipal Water District SCADA Upgrade
Our project to upgrade the remote monitoring capabilities of a Texas municipal water system to a modern SCADA platform came with its share of challenges. PTI and the town’s stakeholders understood the value of the existing water system assets. The project objective was to create a SCADA system foundation for new developments to accommodate the town’s rapid growth -without breaking the budget and unnecessarily replacing legacy hardware.
Our strategy was to implement a hybrid local control and SCADA monitoring system. We were able to keep most of the existing control system hardware and the existing 900 MHz radio assets and merge them with a modern Cloud-Hosted SCADA platform using cellular SCADA gateways.
The resulting system eliminated the single point of failure surrounding the legacy workstation-based automation software and replaced it with a cloud-hosted SCADA platform that, once implemented, requires little more than periodic user rights management. New projects in the town will utilize cellular SCADA gateways, while the town operators can upgrade their legacy equipment at their convenience.
Principal Technology designed and built this water pump and filtration skid in our Plano, Texas facility. The system required structural, process & mechanical, electrical, and control system design. Our system integration and fabrication group fabricated the equipment skid including all control panels, motor starter panels, electrical conduit and cabling prior to shipping it to our client’s plant.
Principal Technology is a full service engineering firm with additional support for system integration, fabrication, sulfur recovery, amine treating, and a wide selection of turnkey solutions.
