Access-limited maintenance
An offshore turbine service visit costs more than the equipment it services, so change intervals are measured in years.
Energy · Industry
Filtration for wind, solar thermal, biogas and battery-material plants where maintenance access is the binding constraint.
- Gearbox oil cleanliness held
- ISO 15/13/10
- Unattended service interval
- 5 yr
- Siloxane in treated biogas
- < 5 ppm
The constraint
Fluid cleanliness for assets nobody can reach easily.
Renewable assets are frequently offshore, remote or on a tower. Maintenance intervals are dictated by access cost, so filtration must be specified for years of unattended service.
Standards we work to
- ISO 4406
- IEC 61400
- DNV-GL-ST-0361
- EN 16723
- ISO 12500
Gearbox oil cleanliness
ISO 4406 class directly determines gearbox life, and a gearbox replacement offshore is a vessel mobilisation.
Biogas contaminant load
Siloxanes, H₂S and moisture in biogas destroy engines rapidly if not removed before combustion.
Heat transfer fluid degradation
Solar thermal fluids degrade thermally and generate particulate that fouls receivers and heat exchangers.
