Product catalog summary
Introduction
The Siemens Wind Turbine SWT-2.3-108 is a new addition to the 2.3-MW family, known for its reliability and adaptability to various wind conditions. This model features a larger rotor, enhancing productivity, especially in low to moderate wind speeds.

Innovative Design and Performance
The SWT-2.3-108 is equipped with a 108-meter rotor and advanced blade technology, optimized for sites with low wind speeds. The turbine's design ensures superior availability, reliability, and a lower levelized cost of energy. The Siemens NetConverter® system enhances grid compliance and fleet management.

Proven Reliability
Siemens has a long history of reliable wind turbine installations, with many units still operational decades after installation. The SWT-2.3-108 builds on this legacy, offering high energy output and minimal maintenance requirements.

Technical Specifications
  • Rotor: 3-bladed, horizontal axis, 108 m diameter, pitch regulation with variable speed.
  • Blade: Self-supporting, 53 m length, made of GRE material.
  • Transmission: 3-stage planetary/helical gearbox with a ratio of 1:91.
  • Generator: Asynchronous, 2,300 kW nominal power, IP 54 protection.
  • Tower: Cylindrical/tapered tubular, 80 m hub height.


Operational Data
The turbine operates efficiently with a cut-in wind speed of 3-4 m/s and a cut-out wind speed of 25 m/s. It is designed to withstand maximum gusts of 59.5 m/s.

Maintenance and Safety
The SWT-2.3-108 features a Turbine Condition Monitoring® system for proactive maintenance, reducing the need for on-site servicing. Safety is prioritized with fail-safe capabilities and superior lightning protection.

Conclusion
The Siemens SWT-2.3-108 wind turbine represents a significant advancement in wind energy technology, offering enhanced productivity, reliability, and safety. It is a sound investment for sustainable energy production.

Siemens’ Turbine Condition Monitoring® system instantly detects deviations from normal operating conditions No compromise on reliability SWT-2.3-108: The newest member of an extremely reliable product family Siemens wind turbines are designed to last. The robust design of the SWT-2.3-108 allows for trouble-free output throughout the complete lifecycle of the machine. Instead of glueing the blades together from a number of spars and shells, they are cast in a single process. This not only enables both low weight and enormous strength, there are no glue joins which could potentially expose the...
