ABB signs products agreement with Dow Chemical

ABB 與Dow 化學(xué)公司簽署產(chǎn)品協(xié)議

Switchgear and motor control will complement Industrial IT system solutions

開關(guān)柜和發(fā)動機(jī)控制將補(bǔ)充工業(yè)IT系統(tǒng)解決方案

Zurich, Switzerland, July 05, 2006 - ABB, the leading power and automation technology group, said today it has signed an agreement with The Dow Chemical Company as one of two preferred suppliers for IEC switchgear and motor controls.

瑞士蘇黎世7月5日消息——全球領(lǐng)先的電力和自動化技術(shù)集團(tuán)ABB今天宣布與Dow 化學(xué)公司簽署了一份協(xié)議，成為其IEC開關(guān)柜和發(fā)動機(jī)控制產(chǎn)品的兩個首選供應(yīng)商之一。

The three-year pact, covering a variety of electrical switchgear and control products, complements an existing strategic agreement with Dow for ABB Industrial IT control systems.

這份三年合約含括了多種電力開關(guān)柜和控制產(chǎn)品，補(bǔ)充了ABB與Dow一份現(xiàn)有的工業(yè)IT控制系統(tǒng)戰(zhàn)略協(xié)議。

“This agreement combines high-reliability ABB products working in a systems environment with other key elements of our power and automation offering,” said Tom Sjoekvist, head of ABB’s Automation Products division. “We are committed to collaborating with Dow on integrated solutions that produce an attractive return on investment.”

ABB自動化產(chǎn)品部主管Tom Sjoekvist表示：“本協(xié)議結(jié)合了工作于一個系統(tǒng)環(huán)境里的高可靠性的ABB產(chǎn)品和我們提供的其他電力和自動化關(guān)鍵部件。我們承諾與Dow就完整解決方案方面展開合作，為Dow創(chuàng)造可觀的投資回報?！?/SPAN>

The new agreement designates ABB as a strategic supplier of low-voltage switchgear and motor control centers, plus medium-voltage switchgear to Dow facilities that operate according to International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) regulatory standards. The products agreement continues a long collaboration between ABB and Dow, which operates more than 150 manufacturing sites worldwide.

這份新的協(xié)議指定ABB為低壓開關(guān)柜和發(fā)動機(jī)控制中心的戰(zhàn)略供應(yīng)商，以及根據(jù)國際電工委員會(IEC)規(guī)定標(biāo)準(zhǔn)運(yùn)營的Dow工廠中壓開關(guān)柜的戰(zhàn)略供應(yīng)商。該產(chǎn)品協(xié)議持續(xù)了ABB與Dow的長久合作。Dow在全球運(yùn)營著超過150家生產(chǎn)工廠。

In 2001, the two companies forged a ten-year strategic agreement to infuse Dow’s plants with a new generation of ABB Industrial IT technologies to link diverse operations and enhance productivity. The agreement was recently extended for an additional five years, and Dow has since extended its relationship with ABB to cover the purchase of low-voltage drives, transformers, and instrumentation products.

在2001年，這兩家公司達(dá)成了一份為期十年的戰(zhàn)略協(xié)議，為Dow的工廠提供新一代的ABB工業(yè)IT技術(shù)以連接不同的運(yùn)作和提高生產(chǎn)率。該協(xié)議在最近又增加了額外的五年期限，而Dow自那開始購買ABB的低壓驅(qū)動、變壓器和使用儀器產(chǎn)品，擴(kuò)大了與ABB的合作關(guān)系。
