Its glad announce that ‘Kay Arr Engineering Services’ is now implementing ‘CONDITION MONITORING’ – A health analyse with solution for Gear box and Wind Turbines in association with M/s SKF INDIA LTD as a Technical partner

Objective:
To obtain the exact condition of:

• Internals such as Gears, Pinions etc.,
• Bearings
• Casing
• Noise level
• Temperature level
• Vibration level  
• Oil level
• Oil condition
• Oil / V’seals

Introduction:
Condition based maintenance - an approach which being followed for years as successfully as well as effectively in other industry sectors is now also being increasingly adopted in the Wind Energy sector.
Condition-based monitoring is an essential and optimum means of protecting this investment in regenerative energy and ensuring maximum availability of wind turbines for generation. Implementing such a concept requires a new strategic orientation in the maintenance and repair of Gear boxes in order to reduce the cost potentials.
In addition to the routine maintenance, the condition monitoring includes

• Visual inspection
• Audible inspection

 

Features:

• Preferred / convenient time of frequency for monitoring
• No additional stoppage time of WTG
• Parameters measurement by using latest technology instruments
• Reliable mode of reports on observation with suggestions by priority levels
• Reliable Support on rectification / remedy for the observations

 

Advantages:

• Problem / failure identification at an early stage
• Cost reduction since the rectification at early stage of failure
• Less stoppage time of WTG as preventive maintenance
• Supports on Insurance claims to increase the claim ratio
• Avoid the extension of damages / failures at relevant parts
• Avoid Energy generation loss as reducing the stoppage hours
• Retains the efficiency of gear box
• Retains the condition of internals as well as bearings
