ABB power factor correction bridges power gap for french fries production line

摘要

ABB power factor correction (PFC) equipment has provided a vital boost in energy efficiency for the McCain Food's massive site at Scarborough, North Yorkshire, which produces many of the company's key products. The result is that the existing power network, which previously was operating close to its maximum 9.5 MW load, is able to cope comfortably with the demand of the new Homes Fries production line without needing a major investment in new network infrastructure.
