Altivar drives go to the movies!
Bristol cinemagoers are now enjoying improved screenings of classic and archive movies, thanks to an Altivar 18 variable speed drive from Telemecanique.
A panel comprising United Utilities', MWH PM Engineering Service Provider and three main construction framework contractors: KMI Water, HMB Alliance and Galliford Costain JV, scored the suppliers and voted against the criteria to give the award to Schneider Electric.
The award follows Schneider Electric winning a contract, against stiff competition, to become the sole supplier of variable speed drives to United Utilities for a term of three years.
The contract includes supplying the complete Altivar range from Telemecanique, a brand of Schneider Electric, from 0.18 to 500kW and represents a guaranteed spend of GBP1.6million over the term of the contract.
The majority of the drives will be used for a wide variety of pump applications although some fan applications are also included in the programme.
United Utilities has 374 major and about 250 minor works projects to carry out as part of its GBP3billion asset management programme in the North West.
The contract also covers pre-sales technical advice and post-installation maintenance.
