Efficient energy management With energy costs rising, competitive pressures intensifying and climate awareness increasing, concepts for energy-optimized equipment and systems are sparking greater interest than ever before. Today, the focus is not only on procurement costs(采购成本) but on a product’s entire lifecycle costs(寿命周期费用), including operating outlays(费用, 经费 ), energy consumption and resource use. Cutting costs by as much as 70 percent, our energy-saving motors and frequency convertors(变频器 ) for variable-speed operation are pillars of efficient energy management. Using our SinaSave software tool, customers can easily calculate how quickly their investments in energy-saving motors and converters will pay for themselves. “变频空调”是与传统的“定频空调”相比较而产 生的概念。众所周知,我国的电源电压为220伏、 50赫兹,在这种条件下工作的空调称之“定频空 调”。由于供电频率不能改变,定频空调的压缩 机转速基本不变,所有它不能大幅度地调节制冷 量,而是通过频繁开启关闭压缩机的方式来调节 房间温度高低。而与之相比,“定频空调”变频 器改变压缩机供电频率,调节压缩机转速。供电 频率高,压缩机转速快,空调器制冷(热)量就 大;而当供电频率较低时,空调器制冷(热)量 就小。这就事所为“定频”的原理。与定频相比, 空调器采用这种工作方式有许多优势。 Networked systems offer the best way to guarantee security, energy conservation and comfort in buildings. Total Building Solutions To meet today’s high standards of efficiency, comfort, security, reliability and flexibility, buildings require applications from a wide array of technologies – from building automation, fire protection and security to lighting and low-voltage power distribution. As an expert in all these areas, we ensure the reliable operation of office blocks, complex production facilities, hospitals, airports and buildings for the life sciences industry. Comprising the infrastructure needed to network, monitor and control all of a building’s systems, our Total Building Solutions offer certified packages of products and systems that fulfill all the requirements of advanced building technology. To contain fires and facilitate building evacuation, for example, fire protection systems are directly linked to climate and door control systems. To maximize security, lighting is connected to alarm systems. And to conserve energy, lamps are automatically switched off and heating systems turned down in unoccupied rooms. In the digital factory, product lifecycle management enables production and operations to be simulated. Product lifecycle management In an age of fast-paced technological change and growing demand for customized products, industrial equipment and systems must be adapted to current market needs more quickly, flexibly and costeffectively than ever before. Throughout the entire product development process, speed is a key competitive advantage. In today’s increasingly complex environment, conventional development and production processes are reaching their limits. That’s where the digital factory is breaking new ground with the simulation of production scenarios(情况) – all the way from product conception to the recycling phase. Product lifecycle management (PLM) is the preferred approach for transforming fledglingideas into successful() products. fledgling(刚会飞的幼鸟, 尚缺乏经验的人) Our industrial software translates this concept into proven solutions that are open, scalable(可 测量的, 可伸缩的 ) and flexible. Using our PLM software, manufacturers can simulate production steps and operational states, without the need for costly real-world prototypes. In the field of mechanical engineering, for example, we offer PLM solutions that span the entire process chain – from computer-aided design and manufacturing to the construction of entire virtual machines. The advantages: time-to-market is accelerated considerably, while end customers benefit from improved product quality and productivity. In membrane filtration (膜滤 法)systems, the wastewater flows through thousands of fibers that are no thicker than a human hair. 信息科技英语翻译之口译 Humanity’s most vital resource The need for adequate, high-quality, economical and eco-friendly supplies of drinking and process water is posing increasingly complex challenges for both communities and industrial enterprises. Offering customers a dependable, wide-ranging and sustainable supply of everything from individual products to complete, integrated systems, we boast the world’s most extensive portfolio of cost-effective and reliable water technologies, including conventional filtration systems, membrane filtration systems, membrane bioreactors, ultraviolet disinfection (紫外线消 毒)technologies and much more. In California’s Orange County Water District, for example, water that was previously discharged into the ocean is now being recovered and reused locally. A MEMCOR® submerged membrane filtration system from Siemens removes suspended matter, bacteria and pollutants from the secondary wastewater. An impressive 284 million liters of reclaimed water are now being delivered to California households, industry and agriculture every day. What’s more, the water quality in the groundwater basin is higher than ever before. In Singapore, space is just as scare and valuable as water. Coupling high energy efficiency with minimal space requirements, the MEMCOR® membrane filtration system we installed in the Kranji District is ideal for converting wastewater into drinking water on the densely-populated island. Starting in 2010, the Airval will set new standards of efficiency and comfort at airports. 信息科技英语翻译之口译 Ecofriendly mass transit When it comes to a city’s attractiveness, competitiveness and quality of life, mobility is a major factor. That’s why transportation networks are one of the most important infrastructure systems that cities provide. And modern mass transit plays a key role in urban mobility. Our comprehensive portfolio in this area encompasses everything from streetcar(路面电, 市内有轨电车)systems, regional trains and subways to fully automated driverless trains like the Véhicule Automatique Léger (VAL). In June 2009, we introduced the new Airval airport shuttle, a fully automated rail system that consumes less energy and produces less dust and noise than previous models. We also developed and manufactured Oslo’s new metro system, with its exemplary ecofriendly features. The metro’s vehicles consume 30 percent less energy than their predecessors. In Vienna, our ultra-low-floor technology, which minimizes vehicle entry height, facilitates boarding for streetcar passengers. And in Denver, Colorado, our customer-oriented mass transit concepts are also proving highly successful: in fiscal 2009, the city ordered 55 additional light-rail vehicles from Siemens. Our innovations combine state-of-theart(最新式的, 使用了最先进技术的, 顶尖水准的 ) imaging, laboratory diagnostics, and IT solutions for an earlier prevention and more specific diagnosis, thus enhancing patient care.
