EXAMPLE OF USE – WIND ENERGY PLANTS Bonded coating priming of crown gears of the yaw drive MoS2-Bonded Coating, fast-drying Dry Lubricants Advantages and benefits ighly effective due to good adhesion H to prepared substrates onsistent coefficient of sliding C friction under heavy loading of sliding film ncreased wear protection of sliding I points that can otherwise not be lubricated Radiation and vacuum-resistant One of the most important lubricating points of a wind energy plant is the yaw drive that is used to align the nacelle to the wind direction. The large slewing...

EXAMPLE OF USE – WIND ENERGY PLANT Lubrication of crown gears of the yaw drive Adhesive Lubricant Greases Advantages and benefits ighly effective due to good adhesion H properties and surface covering ncreased operational reliability of I moving parts due to run-in-supporting formation of sliding film pecial formulation for establishing S wear- and run-in-protecting basic lubricating films before further lubrication in the system The open pinion gears at the wind energy plant are particularly endangered before the initial usage. Insufficient lubrication can result in initial damage...

EXAMPLE OF USE - WIND ENERGY PLANT 400 Mounting of wind energy plants MoS2-Multipurpose High-Performance Grease Advantages and benefits ■ Eminently suitable for highly stressed lubrication points ■ Highly effective due to dual lubrication effect ■ Economical due to possible reduction in frequency of lubrication ■ Saving of maintenance and lubricant costs by reducing downtimes and corrective maintenance due to wear Solid lubricants are substances that, due to their structure and their chemical/physical properties, form closed sliding and parting films on metal surfaces. These films are...

EXAMPLE OF USE – WIND ENERGY PLANT Cleaning of rotor blades BIOlogic Industrial Cleaner, water-based concentrate Advantages and benefits Maintenance Products Foto: Thorben Wengert/pixelio.de Despite state-of the art monitoring electronics a wind energy plant has to be maintained regularly, usually every 4 or 5 years. In order to inspect the plant the wind turbine is turned windward, stopped and the rotor locked to position. To check the rotor blades service engineers check the surface of each blade centimetre by centimetre. The rotor blades are examined for cracks, soiling and the state of...
