Maintenance
Maintenance and operation of wind turbines to keep them in proper working condition.
We perform work to maintain the wind turbine in proper, working condition and service wind farms.
1. Scheduled Maintenance According to Manufacturer Requirements
Scheduled maintenance of wind farms according to manufacturer requirements involves performing a certain list of works with a set frequency to maintain accident-free operation of the WTG. For each type of equipment, its own list of scheduled works is established.
2. Service Work
All service work on wind turbines can be divided into 4 types: visual inspection, electrical service, mechanical service, and lubrication.
Visual Inspection
Visual inspection may seem like a useless and simple stage of WTG maintenance. However, professionals know that missing small irregularities can lead to serious equipment breakdown.
Electrical Service
Includes checking transformer substations, SF6 circuit breakers, transformers, electrical systems and components, diagnosing systems for critical errors, testing control cabinets, testing sensors and modules.
Mechanical Service
Includes diagnostics of generator bearings, checking generator windings and varnish coating, controlling bolt tightening at flange joints, checking and adjusting brake and hydraulic systems.
Lubrication Work
Performed to prevent excessive wear of contacting surfaces using original lubricants.
3. Repair Work
During WTG operation, any owner faces repair problems. We are ready to assist with repair work of any complexity.
4. Supply of Spare Parts and Consumables
We carry out independent supply of consumables, spare parts, components and mechanisms for wind turbines. We can also select and supply necessary parts in the shortest possible time from reliable European manufacturers.
We offer WTG and wind farm maintenance throughout Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Russia. Contact us at +375 (29) 747-07-09.
FAQ
How often is it necessary to perform technical maintenance on a wind turbine installation?+
Most wind turbine manufacturers distinguish four types of technical maintenance depending on the operation time of the WEU: primary (performed approximately after 500-1000 hours of work), semi-annual maintenance, annual technical maintenance (includes semi-annual), and maintenance every 4-5 years (the most extensive in terms of volume of works).
Is it possible to regulate the power output of a wind turbine?+
Modern wind turbines can be regulated both individually and as part of a wind park in its entirety. However, adjusting the power output of a wind park sometimes requires specialized software from the WTU manufacturer.
What works does TWO wind turbines imply?+
The scope of work performed depends on the type of technical maintenance and is strictly regulated by the equipment manufacturer. In most cases, technical maintenance includes: monitoring the condition of the tower, blades, nacelle, tightening threaded connections, replacing filters, checking technical fluids and lubricants, inspecting batteries, controlling high-voltage and low-voltage equipment, inspecting the generator, hydraulic systems, lightning protection, cooling systems, yaw control.
How long does it take for T wind turbines to be installed?+
Time spent on technical maintenance of WEUs depends on the type of service and identified issues. On average, about 50-60 hours are spent annually on routine maintenance.
Is a complete shutdown of the WTG required during TOR?+
During the technical maintenance of WEU, the WEU is stopped, and for performing works with high-voltage equipment, the wind installation is disconnected from the electrical network.
In which cases can a wind turbine be stopped?+
Wind energy installations need to be stopped for technical maintenance, component repair or in case of malfunction. Another reason for stopping a wind energy unit is too weak or too strong wind. A third cause may be the requirement of an electric grid operator.
