Is poor control costing your process?
Most industrial control systems operate far below optimal efficiency due to process variability.
Saliqo’s PLC-native adaptive control software improves stability and performance in difficult industrial processes – reducing commissioning time, improving production and lowering energy consumption.
OPERATING SUCCESSFULLY ACROSS INDUSTRY
Adaptive control is becoming essential for high-performance industrial processes. Saliqo delivers scalable, PLC-native adaptive control – no modelling, no retuning, no extra hardware.

16 systems currently operating across UK sites
Star Refrigeration freezer systems incorporate two liquid vessels that regulate refrigerant flow and optimise refrigeration cycle efficiency.
Highly complex coupled and nonlinear liquid level dynamics in the vessels, as well as many sources of variation, including changes within each system as well as from system to system, made PID control very difficult to commission, maintain and scale across the product line.
Saliqo control was able to:
- Stabilise operation across seasonal and load variations
- Eliminate tuning and re-tuning
- Reduce energy consumption by up to 15%
Seamless integration: Saliqo control software was simply deployed as a PLC function block in Mitsubishi GX Works, directly replacing the customer’s existing PID function block with no additional inputs or data required.
Saliqo control is currently deployed and operating at multiple industrial sites and is being rolled out across further sites globally.
