Can you remember the post of mine back last year when ABB sold a customer of mine thousands of pounds worth of invertors to save them thousands of pounds of electricity?
Well, its raised its head again.
There have been meetings with ABB specialists and for whatever reason I was not included.
If you can recall, the first machine where these invertors were fitted by me was a fabric drying/treatment machine and when the circulation fans were slowed 10%, the fabric was not treated or dried properly.
ABB came up with lots of ideas and excuses and I think they are still doing the same.
Its moved on now to the customer fitting F1 fan motors with newly designed fan blades.
I have to wire a binary rotary switch to allow the invertors to run at 6 or 7 separate speeds.
These speeds are only going to be 1HZ apart (I think) and different fabrics are going to be monitored by the management at different speeds.
Meanwhile ABB are going to fit a KWH monitoring device to show the customer just how much money they are saving.
I will fit the switch and play along, my advice and thoughts seem to be of no consequence to them.
I will do the work and get paid. I just thought I would give you an update and would appreciate any comments especially from our resident and much revered ABB motor guru.
