Vedika Instruments has manufactured process instrumentation and packing machinery in Faridabad, India for over nine years. What we ship to Iraq is built on the same line, to the same drawings, with the same calibration discipline as what we supply to an Indian refinery — there is no export-grade and domestic-grade version of anything we make.
The commercial case for Indian supply into Iraq is straightforward. Indian manufacturing cost is materially lower than European or Japanese equivalents while the applicable standards — EN 837 for gauges, IEC 60751 for resistance thermometers, the usual accuracy and IP norms for transmitters — are the same standards, not a local substitute. Sea freight from Nhava Sheva and Mundra is short by international standards — around ten days for a typical consignment — and our working day overlaps enough with yours that a specification question asked in the morning is usually answered the same day.
Equally important for an overseas buyer: a wrong instrument is not a small problem. Returning a mis-specified transmitter across a border costs more than the transmitter. So we build to the datasheet rather than to a catalogue approximation, we certify and document precisely, and we check the paperwork before the crate leaves — because paperwork that does not match the goods is the single most common reason a shipment sits at a port.
EN 837 gauges, IEC 60751 Class A sensors, transmitters to international accuracy and IP norms — with the certificate to prove each one.
Certificate of Origin, MTC, traceable calibration, packing list and invoice prepared to match the goods exactly.
Sea and air freight to Umm Qasr Port, and overland via Jordan or Türkiye where the buyer prefers; air freight into Baghdad, Basra and Erbil — FOB, CFR or CIF as your terms require.
Process instrumentation and packing & sealing machinery from the same works — one PO, one shipment, one point of contact.
Two separate demand curves matter to us, and both are rising.
Process instrumentation. Iraq's demand is overwhelmingly hydrocarbon-led — the southern fields at Rumaila, West Qurna and Zubair, the refineries at Basra, Baiji and Karbala, associated gas processing, and the power stations that depend on them. Buying runs through IOC contractors, Iraqi state companies and the trading houses that serve both, and volumes for a single project can be substantial.
Packing and sealing machinery. Domestic manufacturing is rebuilding — cement, food processing, bottled water, dairy, detergents and pharmaceuticals — and each new line needs end-of-line packing equipment. This is a market where buyers value robustness and spare parts availability over refinement.
The one thing that must be planned for is pre-shipment inspection. Iraq requires a Certificate of Conformity issued after inspection at origin, which means the inspection agency visits before the container is sealed. We build that into the schedule and quote it as a line item rather than discovering it later — an uninspected shipment arriving at Umm Qasr is an expensive mistake.
Rumaila, West Qurna and Zubair — pressure gauges and switches, DP transmitters, level instruments and wellhead panel instrumentation.
Basra, Baiji and Karbala — flameproof sensors, thermowells, remote-seal transmitters and control panels.
Pressure and temperature instrumentation, flow meters and safety system components.
Boiler drum level gauges, steam-service thermowells, multi-channel scanners and annunciators.
Kiln thermocouples, pressure transmitters, level instruments and alarm annunciators.
Sanitary sensors, hygienic gauges, clean room monitors, plus strapping, carton sealing and wrapping machinery.
| Category | Typical items exported |
|---|---|
| Pressure | Bourdon, diaphragm-seal, capsule, contact-type and differential gauges to EN 837; pressure switches; HART pressure and DP transmitters; remote-seal transmitters with capillary. |
| Temperature | Pt100 RTD assemblies to IEC 60751 Class A; mineral-insulated, quick-disconnect, sanitary and flameproof variants; thermocouples types J/K/T/R/S/B; bar-stock thermowells (threaded, flanged, weld-in); head, DIN-rail, field and HART transmitters. |
| Level & flow | Radar, ultrasonic, hydrostatic and capacitance level transmitters; float, fork and conductivity switches; reflex, transparent and tubular gauges; electromagnetic, vortex, turbine and Coriolis flow meters; rotameters. |
| Control & panel | PID controllers (48×48 to 96×96, flameproof and field versions), scanners, indicators, signal isolators, dataloggers, paperless recorders, timers, annunciators, control panels. |
| BMS & clean room | Duct, wall, outdoor and handheld RH+T transmitters; clean-room differential pressure monitors; door interlock systems; wireless transmitter/receiver networks; GPS master clocks. |
| Packing & sealing | Fully automatic and semi-automatic PP strapping machines; semi-automatic, compact and random carton sealers; box wrapping machines with top press; hydraulic hand pallet trucks and drum carriers. |
The more of this you send with the enquiry, the closer the first quotation will be to the final one — and the less chance of a wrong instrument crossing a border.
Medium, working and design pressure, working and maximum temperature, and whether the service is clean, corrosive, viscous, slurry or crystallising.
Process connection size and thread standard (NPT / BSP / flanged with class), wetted material required — SS316L, Hastelloy, Monel, tantalum.
Safe area, or Zone 1 / Zone 2 with gas group and temperature class. Say which certification the project accepts — this decides both price and lead time.
4-20 mA, HART, Modbus RTU or TCP; local display required or not; SIL rating if the loop is part of a safety system.
extreme summer heat, dust storms and, in the south, high humidity near the Shatt al-Arab all change the housing and the IP rating we quote.
Incoterm (FOB, CFR, CIF), port of discharge, quantity and delivery schedule, and any inspection or third-party witnessing required.
Documentation is where an export order is won or delayed, and Iraq has its own requirements. Every consignment we ship carries a commercial invoice and packing list that match the goods line for line, a Certificate of Origin, material test certificates for wetted parts where the datasheet calls for them, and traceable calibration certificates for the instruments that need them.
Iraqi imports require a Certificate of Conformity under the COSQC / ICIGI programme, issued after inspection at origin by an appointed inspection company. This inspection happens before the goods ship, so it has to be planned into the order. We prepare the goods and documents for inspection and coordinate with the appointed agency directly. We say this plainly rather than promising to "handle it", because a supplier who claims to issue a certificate they cannot issue is a supplier whose container gets held.
| Sea freight | From Nhava Sheva and Mundra to Umm Qasr Port, and overland via Jordan or Türkiye where the buyer prefers; air freight into Baghdad, Basra and Erbil. Typical transit is around ten days port to port, subject to sailing schedule. |
|---|---|
| Air freight | For urgent breakdown replacements — instruments are small and light, and air freight is often cheaper than the downtime it prevents. |
| Packing | Export-grade wooden crates with ISPM-15 heat treatment marking where required, moisture barrier and desiccant for electronics, cushioned gauge packing. |
| Incoterms | FOB, CFR and CIF quoted on request. Ex-works available where your freight forwarder collects. |
| Payment | Irrevocable letter of credit, and standard export terms as agreed. Advance and part-advance terms for smaller repeat orders. |
| Lead time | Quoted per order. Stock items ship quickly; project and engineered builds are scheduled and confirmed in writing before the PO is accepted. |
Standards we build to: EN 837-1 and EN 837-3 (Bourdon and capsule gauges), IEC 60751 (Pt100 / Pt1000 resistance thermometers, Class A / AA / 1⁄3 DIN), IEC 60584 (thermocouple types and tolerance classes), ASME PTC 19.3 TW (thermowell wake frequency calculation on request), IEC 61508 (SIL 2 rated transmitters where the loop requires it), and NAMUR NE43 failure signalling.
Certificates supplied with the consignment:
What we will not claim: we do not issue COSQC / ICIGI certificates ourselves — those belong to the importer of record — and we do not quote a lead time we have not scheduled. Both are said in writing before the order is accepted.
Instrumentation and packing machinery exported across the Gulf and beyond.
Vedika Instruments manufactures process instrumentation and packing & sealing machinery in Faridabad, India, and exports both to Iraq. Gauges are built to EN 837, temperature sensors to IEC 60751, and transmitters to international accuracy and ingress norms — with material, calibration and export documentation prepared to match the goods. We supply plants and EPC contractors ordering to project datasheets across Basra, Rumaila, West Qurna, Zubair, Baghdad, Erbil and Sulaymaniyah, and distributors building a catalogue locally.
Indian manufacturing cost, a around ten days sea transit and overlapping working hours make us a practical source for Iraq. Documentation is where an export order is won or delayed, so we prepare it to match the goods line for line and raise any COSQC / ICIGI requirement at quotation stage rather than at shipment. Send a tag list, a datasheet or a photograph of the instrument you are replacing, and we will size it, quote it and document it properly.
