Machine condition monitoring for power generation

Power plants are expected to operate 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Downtime and equipment derating (when a generator fails to deliver power at its rated capacity) can cost a power plant thousands of dollars per hour. The cost of replacing failed equipment is also extremely high. Vibration analysis by itself is not enough to anticipate catastrophic failures. Oil analysis is often able to detect problems at a much earlier stage than vibration analysis. This is why more and more power plants are bringing oil ...

Wind Turbines for Sailing Vessels & Marine Environment

There are very few points on Earth were “grid’ Utility Power is available at sea. And with 71% of the world covered by water, we knew the Superwind turbine must be designed and manufactured to work in this environment – perhaps here more than any other. While our turbines have NOT be constructed to be submarines, they have been extremely marine hardened to include special saltwater corrosion resistant aluminum components, stainless steel axles and drive shaft, water-resistant sealed bearings and ...

Automatic fire detection and suppression solutions for wind turbine industry

Ensure your power generation equipment is protected from the dangers of flammable oils, hydraulic fluids, and short-circuits. Unlike buildings or industrial equipment, wind turbines can be very difficult to protect with traditional fire safety systems. Because wind turbines operate remotely, fires can go undetected. That means a fire extinguisher is not a viable option. Sprinkler systems don't make sense either, because they require a water source. Wind turbine fire suppression systems from Firetrace provide a ...

Industrial power solutions for the nuclear industry

A nuclear reactor produces and controls the release of energy from splitting the atoms of certain elements. The energy released from continuous fission of the atoms of the fuel is utilized as heat in either a gas or water to produce steam. The steam is used to drive the turbines that drive electricity generators. Both boiling water reactors (BWR) and pressurized water reactors (PWR) require secondary separation or “steam drying” as the final stage of water separation within the reactors. In addition, ...
