ABB has announced the availability of Building Information Modelling (BIM) for the company’s low voltage HVAC drives equipment. It says that this makes its Revit MEP family of products more easily available to architects and engineers during the design phase, and claims that it offers the most comprehensive BIM HVAC drive family available developed in full compliance with Autodesk Seek and Revit MEP standards. ABB reveals that it worked directly with Autodesk Seek and its partner, BIMAdvent, to ensure successful integration and compliance.

According to ABB, because the ABB HVAC drive BIM family is fully Revit MEP and Autodesk Seek-compliant, it is available both from within Revit MEP, as well as on the Internet from the Autodesk Seek website by searching using the keywords: ABB, ACH550, HVAC Drive or VFD. In addition to the Revit files, both the family and the Autodesk Seek website include links to technical information on the specific ABB HVAC drive equipment, ABB added.
