Striving towards optimized maintenance to bring maintenance costs down and increase service life is critical but not easy to achieve. Klüber Lubrication has a long-established and proven record of accomplishment in the wind industry, supporting operators in achieving their goals. Our experts give you more insights referring to applications and concrete examples. We look forward to your participation.
Clean components generate production increases
Over time, grease deposits build up in the generator bearings of wind turbines, which can lead to generators running at too high a temperature. This in combination with vibrations, can cause a temperature alarm and shut down of the turbine, and in the long term will lead to the early failing of the generator bearing. Conventional flushing oil will not fully remove the hardened grease deposits that can build up in generator bearings, but using a flushing grease containing special cleaning particles, such as Klübersynth BZ 68-400, can remove deposits even while the turbine is still in operation. We can show you how.
One turbine: one grease
Having one grease that can be used in a variety of wind turbine applications across a range of temperatures has clear benefits. It reduces complexity by streamlining logistics, minimizes the potential for cross contamination with other greases and delivers a uniform high lubrication film thickness. We will show you a solution for main, blade pitch bearings and generator bearings.
