| Rotorlock locking system now rated for transverse forces of up to 7,500 kN |
|
ROEMHELD has improved the performance of its modular locking system Rotorlock for the inspection and maintenance of wind power stations. With a transverse force absorption of up to 7,500 kN, the systems reliably and safely lock rotors with a maximum capacity of 7 MW. Customer-specific variants with higher values are also possible. Due to their design and special coating, they are maintenance-free and corrosion-free through the entire service life of onshore and offshore stations.
The core of Rotorlock is a double-action, hydraulically or electromechanically driven pin that quickly and reliably locks the rotor disc. Non-contact position monitoring transmits the end positions "rotor disc locked" and "rotor released" to the system control and hence provides for extra safety for the operator.
At present, great interest for the locking system developed by ROEMHELD is shown by the offshore industry. Adverse weather conditions, temperatures between -30 degrees and +70 degrees and air with a high salt content are easily managed by Rotorlock. All components meet the corrosion protection requirements for offshore stations with a surface coating pursuant to ...
