Time & Frequency Systems Engineering

Often clients are unsure about what is needed to meet their timing requirements. We can advise on possibilities, and acting as consultants, form a systems proposal that will meet all aspects such as Budget, Performance specification, Serviceability and Future Expansion.

In addition to the provision of basic system features, Spectracom System Design also includes consideration of matters such as physical size, weight, power consumption, thermal management, spares requirement, servicing and training.

Many of the components are produced by us or our sister companies, thereby ensuring low-cost and good control of quality standards. Another consequence is that custom modifications can readily be incorporated - the whole operation under the watchful control of the responsible design engineers.

Our products are highly specialised and reliable. As a result documentation is seldom consulted and needs to be of a very high standard to give required information concisely and in sufficient detail. Our manuals are written by authors who truly understand the products and can ensure that essential detail is conveyed to the reader.

Often, formal testing of a customer's system is required. Our Systems Engineering department can provide test specifications to prove the integrity and performance of their systems. This can be either directly with the customer or included in a prime contractor's proposals. Tests can be performed at the factory, privately or witnessed by the customer and end user representatives

As part of the contribution of Systems Engineering, equipment can be provided conforming to standards required in just about any part of the world. This includes attention to power and statutory requirements as well as the ability to pack and transport delicate electronics to site in good condition.

Generally, commissioning is a factory based process. On acceptance by the customer, Our equipment is normally shipped for integration with the remainder of the application hardware. If required, Our engineers can be requested for site commissioning. The may be particularly important if for example there are local problems with GPS reception to be solved.

A good system deserves good support and Spectracom is famous for its best-in-class service throughout the live of the installation. On site we maintain comprehensive records of customers installations so that support can be offered throughout the system life. Spares are maintained and test engineers have access to test facilities that are of production standard and quality.
