ABB has won the Environmental
Contribution of the Year award at the
Pump Industry Awards. ABB and its
partner Halcyon Drives won the
2013 award for a pump control
system that is saving £68,000 a year
on energy costs for Tata Steel.
At the Tata Steel plant, Rotherham, three 90kW flume flush pumps are used to flush water across the billet to carry away scrap. They were driven by motors running direct-online, with no form of speed control.
Halcyon Drives installed three 90kW and two 75kW ABB industrial drives. IP55 rated, they have in-built intelligent pump function, multi-pump control, and ensure the optimum number of pumps is running.
