And that  is why more and more food and beverage manufacturers are turning to the ABB AVC family of products to protect their critical plant from voltage disturbances

Even the minutest of voltage sag or swell can have an enormous affect on your production  processes; tripping inverters or causing a PLC system failure.

The food and beverage industry is being stretched to its limits at this time and you cannot afford to risk unplanned downtime. Any disruption to production has huge implications for your business including financial costs, failing to fulfil demand and a damaged reputation.

Food and Beverage manufacturers around the world are turning to the PCS100 AVC-40 to resolve their voltage issues. The PCS100 AVC-40 is an active voltage conditioning solution from ABB, world leaders in innovative power products.

The PCS100 AVC-40 detects and fixes voltage issues 20 times faster than the blink of an eye.

How does it work?

Bruce Bennett, the Global Channel Manager for ABB Power Conditioning Products explains, “The PCS100 AVC constantly monitors the voltage supply and immediately corrects any impending issues. When a voltage anomaly is detected, the system instantaneously corrects the voltage, up or down, to the nominal level by means of a built-in injection transformer and rectifier/inverter pairs.

The PCS100 AVC draws additional energy from the utility to make up the correction voltage at sub-cycle speed, relying on ABB’s leading-edge power electronics. Only one moving part, a cooling fan, is involved, and no batteries are required. The PCS100 AVC’s footprint is extremely small, so it installs easily in equipment rooms and confined spaces.

Throughout the food and beverage industry, processes that rely on continuity of operation can benefit from the PCS100 AVC system. It can save money, time and lives in such operations as baking, where the risk of fire exists if a loaded conveyor stops in an oven, or when gas-fired ovens and boilers do not automatically reignite. Packaging products, like glass and foil, have continuous processes that can cause long and expensive delays when disrupted. These operations can benefit from PCS100 AVC protection, as well.”
