Services
Cooling towers
SPX Cooling Tech designs evaporative cooling systems that balance water efficiency with energy performance. These towers serve HVAC and industrial applications, offering modular configurations for easy installation. The adiabatic series reduces water consumption while maintaining thermal efficiency, ideal for data centres and manufacturing facilities requiring precise temperature control.
Underground inspection
Radiodetection and CUES provide cable locators and robotic inspection tools for utility networks. Their ground-penetrating radar identifies subsurface assets, while sewer inspection cameras assess pipeline integrity. These solutions help prevent infrastructure failures in water, gas, and telecom sectors across 60+ countries.
Industrial boilers
Patterson-Kelly and Weil-McLain manufacture high-efficiency boilers for residential and industrial use. These systems feature compact designs that fit through standard doorways, with smart controls optimising energy use. Applications include district heating, hospitals, and manufacturing plants requiring consistent thermal output.
RF communication
TCI and ECS develop military-grade RF systems for signal intelligence and counter-drone operations. Their technologies enable spectrum analysis, geolocation tracking, and secure data links. Deployed in over 100 countries, these solutions protect critical infrastructure from electronic threats while ensuring regulatory compliance.
Marine lighting
SPX AtoN brands like Sabik and Sealite produce marine beacons and lighthouse systems for safe maritime passage. These solar-powered, low-maintenance lights meet IALA standards for visibility and durability in harsh coastal environments. Solutions include obstruction lighting for offshore wind farms and port entry guidance systems.
