Wind turbines are often located in remote areas that are challenging to access for service. Therefore, thorough and effective maintenance must be conducted to minimize downtime and maximize power generated.
Old and hardening grease on key components may reduce power generation or result in unscheduled downtime.
Selecting the right cleaning agent and lubricating grease can potentially help:
Extend bearing life by thoroughly removing old and hardening grease
The latest generation cleaning agent for the wind turbine maintenance
Without maintenance, dirty and dried out lubricating grease of a wind turbine affects bearing life. Watch video to learn how to help efficiently and effectively clean out machine parts during wind turbine maintenance.
