"ABB has corresponding products and services in all aspects of the energy supply chain, which can help users increase energy efficiency by 20% to 30% and can make a direct contribution to energy efficiency." In the interview, Mr. Zeng Shuojun, manager of ABB's Asia Pacific Control Systems Department, told reporters. (Hereinafter referred to as Zeng)
Energy-saving efficiency leader
ABB is a global leader in power and automation technology and is dedicated to providing solutions for customers in the industrial and power industries to help customers increase productivity while reducing the negative impact on the environment.
General introduction, ABB has five business departments of the Ministry of Power Products, Power System Department, Discrete Automation and Motion Control Department, Low Voltage Products Department, Process Automation Department, with a wide range of product lines, including a full range of power transformers and distribution transformers, high, medium and low voltage. Switchgear, AC and DC power transmission and distribution systems, power automation systems, various measuring devices and sensors, real-time control and optimization systems, robot software and hardware and simulation systems, energy-efficient motors and drive systems, power quality, conversion and synchronization systems Fuse and switchgear that protect the safety of the power system.
Zeng always stated that in terms of new energy development, ABB has many successful cases and rich experience, with mature technologies and products serving customers. In the field of new energy such as wind power and solar energy, ABB already has mature technologies to effectively integrate and avoid risks. At the same time, ABB is an active participant in energy conservation, emission reduction and new energy development. It is also a provider of technology, products, services and solutions.
It is understood that ABB attaches great importance to global energy conservation and emission reduction. More than 50% of R&D funds are invested in this area each year. In 2006, ABB officially established the Energy Conservation Center (EEC) in China. It has a dedicated team to engage in energy conservation and emission reduction activities and vigorously promote the sustainable development of energy conservation and environmental protection in China.
The pioneer of world safety instrumentation
As one of the pioneers in the world of safety instrumentation, 2009 was ABB's 30th anniversary of its commitment to safety. General introduction, ABB engaged in functional safety can be traced back to the late 1980s. In 1979, ABB provided the world's first programmable safety PLC. In 1984, ABB provided the Norwegian National Petroleum Corporation with the world's first automation solution that integrates process control and safety. Since then, ABB has been at the forefront of development and delivery of security systems. Her solution really protects generations of people and processes.
As personal protection, plant protection, and local community protection become more and more the primary task for each industry, there is an increasing market demand for safe and reliable automation solutions and reusable best practices. Based on this demand, ABB introduced the integrated safety instrument system 800xA with high integrity.
This SIL3 Class Safety Instrumented System (SIS) provides the highest level of safety control integration for the current market. Its unique built-in diversity technology architecture provides superior process, plant, personnel and environmental protection while optimizing the overall process. effectiveness. Since the system was launched in early 2004, many new and old customers from various industries around the world have purchased more than 6,000 sets. This includes both a new system installation and an existing ABB automation system upgrade to 800xA.
It is understood that the ABB Security Implementation Center (SEC) has grown from the original eight centers to the current 20 centers covering every area in the world. By the end of 2009, the Safety Implementation Centers in Beijing, Shanghai, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Singapore, the United Kingdom, Bangalore, India, and Buenos Aires, Argentina have been certified by TÃœV in Germany. These centers own and apply functional safety management systems. (FSMS) and implement safety system delivery and implementation in accordance with international industry standards. At present, the global team includes more than 500 security engineers who have obtained TÃœV certification and ABB technology certification.
Leader in automation integration
Zeng always stated that ABB integrates electric power and automation, and can fully consider the position of automation in the entire plant from the perspective of macro electric power and automation. Because of this concept and implementation, it is of great significance in the current environment of energy conservation, emission reduction and low-carbon economy, far beyond the scope of a system or product.
Practice has proven that, positioned on a technologically advanced, high-performance automation platform, System 800xA facilitates collaboration, improves operator efficiency, enables seamless control solutions, and integrates a variety of independent systems, applications, information, or fieldbuses. The controller platform provides a flexible upgrade path.
By integrating power and process systems on a unified 800xA platform, customers can optimize the design and performance of their electrical and automation systems, and gain additional revenue through reduced maintenance, engineering and overall life cycle costs. According to ARC's report data, the integration of these two generally independent automation systems can generally reduce capital investment (CAPEX) and operating cost (OPEX) by 20%.
"As the first truly integrated platform on the market, System 800xA helps customers to fully utilize the power of information, while providing solid and reliable process control, while greatly improving efficiency and productivity. Helping customers make full use of existing resources, And provide ways to expand your business successfully.â€
On July 13, 2010, ABB released the latest version of the system. The new version further enhances the overall performance and availability of the system, while significantly reducing the physical footprint, improving the efficiency of the operator, and making it easier to use, enabling deeper integration with smart devices and electrical systems.
ABB is a world leader in power and automation technology. ABB's technology can help power, utilities and industrial customers improve their performance while reducing their negative impact on the environment. ABB Group operates in more than 100 countries and has 117,000 employees. ABB has a full range of business activities in China including R&D, manufacturing, sales and engineering services. It employs 15,300 people, owns 30 joint ventures and wholly-owned companies, and has a strong sales and service network throughout the country.
ABB: Giant Power and Automation Technology
“In the entire energy supply chain, 80% of energy is consumed from the initial exploitation of energy to the end user.†The law of conservation of energy tells us that energy will neither be produced out of thin air, nor will it disappear out of thin air. It can only be transformed from one form to another, or from one object to another. The total amount of energy does not change during the conversion or transfer process. If we can improve the efficiency of energy conversion or transfer process, then it is of great significance to energy conservation and emission reduction.
