ABB MagMaster reaches 500,000 and still not out
ABB售出第五十萬臺MagMaster流量計
2006-10-28 - After over 15 years and thousands of installations worldwide, ABB is celebrating the production of its 500,000th MagMaster flow meter transmitter unit. This milestone was marked with a special presentation to Anglian Water at ABB’s newly opened customer demonstration facility at its Stonehouse factory.
2006-10-28——經過15年多以及全球數(shù)以千計用戶的安裝使用,ABB正在慶祝其第五十萬臺Magmaster流量計變送器的下線。在ABB的 Stonehouse工廠新設的用戶示范區(qū)內,一個向Anglian Water公司的特別交付儀式標志著這個歷史性的里程碑。
Anglian Water will receive the 500,000th unit as part of a consignment of MagMasters it recently ordered for a new installation.
Anglian Water公司將接受這第五十萬臺Magmaster流量計,作為其最近一個新項目訂單交付的一部分。
Since its launch, the MagMaster sensor primary and its accompanying transmitter unit have been used in a diverse range of applications with many of the first units to be produced still in operation. Examples of installations encompass everything from sewage plants in the UK to wineries in Australia, with units installed in ambient temperatures ranging from below freezing through to extreme desert conditions.
自推出以來,Magmaster傳感器及其配套變送器就廣泛應用于各個領域,其首批產品許多仍在使用,應用的例子包含了幾乎所有的領域,從英國的污水處理廠到澳大利亞的葡萄酒廠,工作環(huán)境溫度從零度以下到極端的沙漠環(huán)境溫度。
“The robust design and reliability of the MagMaster is demonstrated by the very low number of failures that have been reported over the past 15 years,” says Tony Hoyle, UK Flow Products Manager, ABB Limited. “One of the most effective features of the MagMaster transmitter has been its single-board design. Originally developed to prevent connection faults caused by plugging two boards together, the single-board design has continued to offer the best solution for dependable operation.”
ABB 英國有限公司流量計產品經理Tony Hoyle表示:“在過去的15年里極低的故障報告率證明了Magmaster流量計的堅固設計以及可靠性。Magmaster變送器最有效的特點之一就是它的單層電子板設計。原本用于避免由連接兩塊電子板導致的連接故障的單板設計為可靠的操作繼續(xù)提供著最佳解決方案?!?/P>
Manufactured at ABB’s Stonehouse factory, MagMaster flow meters offer a high accuracy of 0.15% and a wide turndown of 1500:1, enabling users to achieve improved control and quality of water distribution networks and water treatment works. The MagMaster’s IP68 rating enables the sensor to be buried, eliminating the need for meter pits or chambers and significantly cutting the time and cost of installation.
Magmaster流量計由ABB位于Stonehouse的工廠生產,它提供了高達0.15%的精確度和寬達1500:1的調節(jié)比,使用戶可以提高配水網絡和水處理的質量和控制水平。Magmaster的IP68等級產品能夠讓傳感器埋入地下,避免了挖掘儀表坑或儀表室的必要,極大降低了安裝時間和成本。
ABB’s experience in the manufacture and calibration of flow meters has enabled it to build units to meet individual requirements for specific applications.
ABB在流量計的生產和校準方面擁有豐富的經驗,能夠制造出符合各種個性化特殊應用要求的產品。
“Although our standard range spans from 15 milimetres to 2.2 metres, we have manufactured MagMaster units from 2.4 metres down to just two millimetres,” says Hoyle. “This is typical of our approach to building and calibrating flow meters, which is to ensure that our products exactly meet our customers’ requirements.”
Hoyle說道:“盡管我們的標準口徑范圍從15毫米到2.2米,但是我們已經生產過從2.4米到2毫米的Magmaster產品。這是我們制造和校準流量計的典型方法,這保證我們的產品能很好地滿足客戶的要求。”
“Another example that’s proved popular with customers over the years is cabling and potting sensors at our factory. It’s no problem for ABB’s flexible manufacturing techniques; the customer advises their required cable length and our team cuts, fits and pots it at the sensor terminal box. This can save hours on site trying to perform termination and wiring in often poor weather conditions.”
“另一個能說明這些年來我們的產品廣受客戶歡迎的例子是我們工廠的電纜和裝配傳感器。對于ABB靈活的生產技術來說,根據客戶要求的電纜長度,在傳感器接線盒內將電纜切割,配型,裝配是輕而易舉的事情。這可以大大節(jié)省現(xiàn)場調試以及通常在惡劣溫度環(huán)境下配線的時間?!?/P>
With the arrival of ABB’s CalMaster2 flow meter verification suite, the calibration of both the mains and battery-powered versions of the MagMaster and AquaMaster can now be routinely verified in-situ, eliminating the cost and disruption associated with removing the flow meter from service.
隨著ABB的CalMaster2流量計檢測組件的推出,普通電源和電池供電的MagMaster 和 AquaMaster流量計的校準工作現(xiàn)在可以實現(xiàn)例行的原位檢驗,從而避免了拆下流量計所帶來的成本和損壞。
