We were met by Neil Farleigh, their Engineering Manager, who with five members of his engineering team looked after us for the duration of the visit. After introductory coffee and pastries Neil’s team went through a number of presentations including: safety briefing, introductions, Centrax history, Centrax products and future developments. After a coffee break we undertook a tour of the production facilities. This included: a visit to the factory floor to view two of the larger modules being readied for initial testing prior to delivery, an inspection of a test cell where a module was being readied for operation and the Test and Commissioning Control Room where a module was being subject to operational testing.

The visit was extremely interesting and resulted in a significant number of questions being raised and answered throughout the duration of the visit. The visit ended with ten members, one guest, Neil and 4 members of his team decamping to the Passage House Inn for a leisurely lunch and continuation of various discussion topics. Neil and his team were thanked for the time and effort they had taken in making the Club’s visit such a memorable occasion. Photos and text by Robbie.
