Wind turbines operate in some of the harshest environments — from freezing cold to scorching heat, often exposed to constant mechanical stress, vibration, and weather-related wear. To keep these critical machines performing at their best, regular fluid change services are essential. Fluids such as oils, hydraulic liquids, and coolants degrade over time due to temperature extremes, moisture ingress, particulate contamination, and natural aging processes. Failure to properly maintain fluid systems can result in major mechanical failures, costly repairs, and unnecessary downtime.
Our specialized Wind Turbine Fluid Change Services are designed to proactively protect your turbines, maintain efficiency, and extend the life of key components — all while ensuring full compliance with manufacturer warranties and industry standards.
Gearbox Oil Change and Filtration Services
- The Gearbox is one of the most critical and costly components in a turbine.
- We perform complete gear oil changes, including:
- Draining used oil safely and in an environmentally responsible manner.
- Flushing the gearbox (if specified) to remove residual contaminants.
- Filtering and testing the new oil prior to installation to ensure purity.
- Refilling with OEM-approved synthetic or mineral oils.
Hydraulic Fluid Replacement and System Flushing
- Pitch and brake systems in turbines depend heavily on the quality of hydraulic fluids.
- Our services include:
- Full system drainage and removal of degraded hydraulic fluids.
- Replacement of hydraulic filters to ensure system cleanliness.
- Flushing hydraulic circuits if contamination or moisture is detected.
- Refilling with high-performance, specification-matched hydraulic fluids.
- Goal: Ensure responsive pitch control, reliable braking, and safe turbine shutdowns, even in extreme conditions.
Cooling System Fluid Exchange
- Turbines often use specialized cooling systems to manage the heat generated by converters, transformers, and nacelle electronics.
- We offer:
- Complete coolant removal and system flushing.
- Inspection of cooling hoses, pumps, and seals during service.
- Refilling with OEM-recommended coolants for maximum thermal performance.
- Goal: Prevent overheating, reduce electrical system failures, and maintain energy conversion efficiency.
Main Bearing and Yaw Bearing Grease Renewal
- Bearings are crucial for smooth turbine operation and require regular lubrication maintenance.
- Our team:
- Flushes old, contaminated grease from main and yaw bearings.
- Inspects for signs of abnormal wear during grease change.
- Applies fresh, OEM-specified grease using calibrated equipment.
- Goal: Reduce friction, prevent bearing failures, and protect expensive rotating equipment from premature degradation.
