AUMA has been selected to supply electric actuators equipped with the HART interface to a cogeneration plant currently under construction in Pengerang, Malaysia. To date, AUMA has supplied more than 300 electric actuators for the four cogeneration units to be built on the site. The gas-fired power plant forms a key part of the Pengerang Integrated Complex (PIC), a prestigious project run by Malaysia’s state-owned petroleum corporation, Petronas. The power plant is expected to generate up to 1,220 MW of electricity as well as up to 1,480 tons per hour of steam to supply other plants within the complex. Support for the HART communication protocol was one of the key requirements for the actuators on this project.
