Our latest water-/hydrogen-cooled generators benefit from proven design and technologies as well as the application of our building-block approach. They share many features with other products across our portfolio. This allows us to optimize material selection and performance to provide you with a low-cost, highly efficient, and easily maintained generator for high-power applications.
High operational flexibility
Modern grids require high operational flexibility because of the increased integration of renewable energy sources. Our design supports high ramp-up/down rates, frequent startlstops while maintaining low thermal mechanical stress in the stator windings.
MICALASTIC® insulation system
Our proven MICALASTIC® insulation system and Global Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (GVPI) technology ensure maximum electrical endurance and outstanding availability.
Your benefits:
-Insensitive to thermal cycling
-No maintenance required
-Very low mechanical stress during operation
-Non-flammable and self-extinguishing; no fire-extinguishing system needed
Proven Global Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (GVPI) and water cooling technolgy
Combining GVPI stators with water cooling enables uniform temperatures and low stress levels to enhance operational flexibility. The proven reliability is greater than 99.9% for more than 1,700 stator windings between 10 and 22 kV with an output of up to 1,300 MVA. Our fleet leader has over 150,000 operating hours and 3,320 start/stop cycles.
