Financia Benefits Exampe: Wind Turbine Gearbox As wind turbines become arger and more compex, the power produced from them increases but so can the maintenance costs. There have been many we pubicised faiure events which have been very costy to the owners, manufacturers and to the genera perception of wind as a renewabe energy source. One such event was the faiure of a 30 2MW turbines instaed at Scroby sands in the UK. A faiures occurred within one year of instaation. Using data provided from a gearbox manufacturer, the tota cost of removing, overhauing and reinstaing a gear box can be up to 450,000*. This can be due to the turbines inaccessibiity, crane renta, man hours used and oss of earnings on the turbine. If sensor equipment detects a potentiay serious probem before it becomes too advanced and the repair coud happen without the need for a crane then the repair bi coud be a fraction of this cost. If a sensor detected oi contamination such as water in the oi or oxidation which coud ead to a serious faiure then the turbine coud be saved by just repacing the oi this coud be a 450,000 saving. * Data taken from the industria gearbox ife cyce and the tota cost of ownership by Gary Bis Hansen Transmissions BGA Gears 2006 Seminar

Oi Condition Sensors The Oi Condition Sensor goes beyond the norma protection systems; it monitors the root cause of ubricant and machine faiure. It puts you in contro. You know exacty when to change the oi based on condition, not on historica schedues. Today s ubricants are better quaity than ever before. Sticking to od service schedues is expensive and extending oi service ife isn t guesswork. Whist ubricants perform better, you know they are sti at risk from changing operating and environmenta conditions. That s why your oi anaysis service incudes an oi condition feedback. It heps you detect when your oi may no onger be fit for service, possiby even pinpointing a contaminant or machine faut as the cause. The Oi Condition Sensor goes beyond the norma hand-hed fied go/no-go units to offer permanent mounting.

Moisture Sensors The Moisture sensor goes beyond the norma water screening tests to te you exacty how dry your oi is. You know that the more severe the moisture ingression probem, the greater the potentia risk. You can ensure that your oi is aways beow the saturation point before free and emusified water starts to form. And take immediate action on the first indication of change. You probaby aready know that free and emusified water cause probems. But, did you know that water can increase the oxidation rate of your ubricant by more than ten times? That s why your oi anaysis service incudes a water-screening test. But were you aware that bearings coud ose 75% of their potentia service ife due to water before the oi even begins to start to ook coudy? Even in its dissoved state the water is at work, attacking the base stock, the additive package, and the machine. Pus, water can carry organisms with it that coud disabe your critica hydrauic systems. Providing a % Reative Humidity (RH) and temperature vaues, now you can monitor rea-time, the Moisture sensor can be mounted within any ubrication system on any type of machine. Moisture sensors need not be in the fuid to be effective and are aso of use in the headspace of a piece of machinery.
