Background
Increased regulations in form of standards and directives mean that the maintenance of wind energy converters requires a more wide-ranging inspection than in the past. This led to a restructuring of the ENERCON maintenance cycle. In order to ensure an efficient and customer-oriented service under these new conditions, ENERCON is adjusting its maintenance cycles and content.
As part of the EPK or maintenance contract, the scope of service results of three essential requirements:
- Tests resulting from obligations of the operator and ENERCON does as service provider.
- Tests that ENERCON dictates as a manufacturer for its products.
- Tests that the ENERCON Service Center performs due to many years of experience in order to ensure a trouble-free operation of the WEC.
After careful evaluations and ENERCON’s extensive experience it was decided to change the basic interval from quarterly to half-yearly and a 4-year interval will be introduced for certain inspections. Electrical and Mechanical Maintenance will be combined into so-called Master Maintenance. Grease Maintenance is carried out unchanged. The visual Maintenance is discontinued. In addition, the 4-Yearly Maintenance is carried out every four years. (For further information please see table to the right.)
Implementation of the new maintenance cycle
After gaining experience with the launch of the restructured maintenance cycle in Germany, the international implementation will start in Q4/2016.
