Hitachi฀Industrial฀Equipment฀
Systems’฀Amorphous฀Transformers
“Super Amorphous X” is a super energy-saving
transformer made by Hitachi Industrial Equipment
Systems Co., Ltd. This transformer uses an
amorphous alloy for the iron core to achieve
higher efficiency than conventional top-runner
transformers. Moreover, by reducing the no-load
loss, “Super Amorphous X” has improved the
electric power conversion loss of distribution
transformers. In addition to reducing running
costs, this transformer reduces CO2 emissions
and contributes to energy conservation.
Hitachi Plant Technologies’
Water Recycling System
Hitachi Plant Technologies, Ltd. has supplied a compact
MBR*1 and RO*2 system for treating domestic wastewater
released by the commercial and residential areas of Burj
Khalifa, the world’s tallest building in the United Arab
Emirates, and supplying the recycled water for use in foun-
tains in the surrounding area.
*1 MBR (Membrane Bio-Reactor)
*2 RO (Reverse Osmosis)
VX฀Series฀Escalator
The VX series escalator has improved safety and energy-
saving performance thanks to inverter-based operational
control. This elevator can be controlled precisely accord-
ing to the number of users, enabling high energy-saving
performance. Meanwhile, this elevator gradually slows
down before stopping in an emergency, preventing users
from falling over and thus enhancing safety.
Class฀395฀High-Speed฀Trains฀for฀the฀UK
Hitachi is responding to increasing moves around the
world to construct railways by selling aluminum railcars
in Japan and overseas based on its proprietary “A-train”
concept that has a lower environmental impact.
