6 FAQs about [Wind turbine generator grounding carbon brush]

Which grounding brushes should be used for turbine-generators?

For turbine-generators we suggest the following as a rough guideline for grounding brushes: Large, narrow shaft-grounding brushes for use inside the frames of turbomachines in process industries, such as air and gas compressors, turbines, pumps, and motors subject to electrostatic-, electromagnetic-, or ground fault-induced stray currents.

Are Helwig carbon brushes good for wind turbines?

With lightning strikes being a major concern for wind turbines, Helwig Carbon offers brushes and brush holders that meet the rigorous demands of lightning protection. Our brush grades perform well in electrical surges and are not prone to wear. Low resistivity ensures that electrical currents are directed away from crucial components.

What are carbon brushes & brush holder systems for generators & pitch systems?

Our carbon brushes and brush holder systems for generators and pitch systems support turbine and generator manufacturers in the onshore and offshore sectors in achieving their goals. Carbon brushes from Schunk perfect the power transmission of slip rings of doubly-fed asynchronous generators (DFIG).

What are carbon brushes used for?

In both onshore and offshore areas, giant wind farms are springing up. Carbon brushes are very important functional components of wind energy generators. They are used as electrical contacts for power transmission. Our expertise in materials and applications makes us a sought-after partner in the wind energy industry.

Which brush & holder is best for a wind turbine?

industry-leading brush & holder knowledge. With lightning strikes being a major concern for wind turbines, Helwig Carbon offers brushes and brush holders that meet the rigorous demands of lightning protection. Our brush grades perform well in electrical surges and are not prone to wear.

Why should you use a grounding brush holder?

High frequency and parasitic shaft currents can severely damage gear components and bearings. Our grounding brushes reliably divert capacitive currents from the shaft, minimizing repair efforts and downtime of the wind turbine. Grounding brush holders are the perfect complement to our grounding brushes.
