| ABB to supply amorphous dry transformers in China ABB, the Swiss power and engineering company, has won an order to supply amorphous dry-type transformers from its recently launched EcoDryTM line, for a real estate project being executed by the ZheJiang WanAn Real-Estate Co. Ltd. The transformers will be installed in a residential quarter in Zhejiang province, a coastal area in eastern China that borders the municipality of Shanghai.This is a breakthrough for the company in terms of supplying amorphous dry-type transformers to the Chinese market. ABB's EcoDry transformers, which are built around amorphous alloy cores, can reduce 'no load' losses by up to 70 per cent and CO2 emissions by as much as 70 tonnes during the life of the transformer. The atomic structure of amorphous metal minimizes no-load losses in transformers when in stand-by or operating mode. write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Construction News :: home page |
