An order for the renovation of the regulation system of aluminium electrolysis pots.

一份铝电解罐调节系统的更新订单

Hillside plant is located at "Richards Bay", 200 kilometres north of Durban, in South Africa. It has already been fitted out by Schneider Electric in the 1990's.

Hillside铝厂位于南非首都德班以北200公里的“里查兹海湾”。该厂在上个世纪90年代就由施耐德电气装备完毕。

Hillside, an aluminium producer in the BHP Billiton group, has entrusted the Schneider Electric - Areva Consortium with the complete refurbishment of the regulation system for its aluminium electrolysis pots.

Hillside是BHP Billiton 集团旗下的铝生产商，已经委托施耐德电气—Areva联盟负责其铝电解罐调节系统的全部更新项目。

The order includes studies, supply, installation supervision and commissioning of the regulation system of the 576 pots in the plant. The equipment configuration and the ALPSYS® application software will be deployed.

该订单包括对铝厂576个电解罐调节系统的研究、供应、安装监督和测试。设备装置以及ALPSYS应用软件也将被配置。

Schneider Electric has been supplying process control systems for aluminium electrolysis from the 1980’s. In a Consortium with Areva since 1997, Schneider Electric is the exclusive integrator for the deployment of ALCAN/PECHINEY technology used to regulate aluminium electrolysis pots.

施耐德电气从上个世纪八十年代就开始为铝电解提供过程控制系统。自1997年与Areva公司结成联盟，施耐德电气就成为了应用于调节铝电解罐的ALCAN/PECHINEY技术应用的唯一集成商。

For the past 10 years, 80% of the new plants constructed all around the world have been equipped with ALPSYS®. This system participates, amongst other things, in reducing the frequency and duration of the Anode effect - one of the levers in reducting greenhouse gas emissions.

在过去的10年里，全世界80%的新建工厂都已经装备了ALPSYS系统。在其他事物中间，这个系统参与减少阳极效应的频率和持续时间，而阳极效应的减少正是温室气体排放减少的杠杆之一。
