the cabling length was reduced by almost 100 kilometers in the biodiesel plant in Eemshaven.
The biodiesel plants also feature the application
of type-tested SIVACON control equipment. This
equipment is extremely modular and permits
remote maintenance of the control system from
CMB headquarters in Austria. If a fault should actually occur, a spare plug-in that is located on-site

system, CMB can guarantee the biodiesel plant
owners continuous operation of the plant.
