In addition to meeting customer requirements by providing product directly from one of several Emerson Process Management or other manufacturing locations, we also deliver product from our own warehouse/shops in Las Vegas, Pleasanton, CA and Honolulu. We maintain a local inventory of commonly used parts and assemblies for use when quick delivery is a requirement.
Caltrol is also linked electronically with Fisher’s factories, other representatives’ offices and the Emerson Instrument and Valve Services network. If a plant emergency arises or when the equipment you need is not on our shelf, we will search the Fisher network to fill and ship your order from a variety of other sources to meet your delivery requirements.
Caltrol shop personnel assemble, modify or fabricate various valve, instrumentation and control systems to your specifications, or as part of a turnkey project scope. Caltrol goes through rigorous testing to insure that your valves are Fisher Certified. About Fisher Certified top of page
Our staff of trained technicians provides assembly services for a variety of products when delivery is critical or when special or “custom” designs are required to meet a specific application. The services we provide may be as simple as performing a spring change in a pressure regulator or as complex as the design, assembly and test of a valve with a stroke speed requirement of less than 1 second for Anti-Surge protection of a gas turbine. top of page
Caltrol’s Valve Automation group specializes in automating valves with pneumatic, electro-mechanical and electro-hydraulic actuators. We can mount virtually any type of actuator to any type of globe, butterfly, gate, or ball valve to meet your specific automation needs. There is no actuation job too large or too small for Caltrol to address, and custom mounting brackets are our specialty.
We provide a complete valve automation package including system design, CAD generated documentation, and wiring instructions. Actuator mounting can be performed in our shop or in the field and installation service is available. All this capability is the result of over 30 years of experience in the valve automation industry. top of page

Caltrol’s shop technicians assemble custom control panels in our Pleasanton and Arizona Shop facilities utilizing commercially available components whenever possible.
Caltrol’s Project Engineers and panel designers generate detailed panel designs and layout drawings for each enclosure. Shop technicians use approved drawings to build panels per the specifications. Control panels fabricated by Caltrol are subjected to a control panel test procedure with the results documented. Panel tests include: Nameplate and wire identification verification; Wire continuity and mechanical soundness; Specific functionality tests; Power, fuse and grounding; and Workmanship. top of page
