Speaking of its excellent production team, he expressed confidence: “Here, we ensure world-class production standards, just like ABB’s factories in Lenno, Italy and Minden, Germany.

The new pressure transmitter line delivers “ABB Made” quality products and services to help customers build advanced systems and create superior performance for safety, reliability and economy.

In addition, ABB’s Instrument Products Division in China has just introduced three new flowmeter calibration devices and production lines, which have been installed at its new instrument facility in Waigaoqiao, Shanghai. Designed by ABB in Stonehouse, UK, the three flowmeter calibrators are capable of producing 1,000 units per month on a single shift. This is another positive move by ABB Instruments in the prospect of rapid industrial growth in China to meet the growing demand for flow metering equipment.
