In terms of weight, height and width, all of its components comply with most local and international limits for standard transportation. All transportable components weigh less than 70 tonnes. Your foundation costs are also lowered with the V112-3.0 MW® due to its improved load control. Additionally, the grid support capabilities of the new power system help minimise substation cost and provide greater flexibility to meet future requirements. Easy serviceability The V112-3.0 MW®’s new nacelle is ergonomically designed and maximises the available internal space by integrating the power converter into the nacelle floor. This extra space makes it easier for maintenance crews to gain access – reducing the time spent on service and, therefore, maximising uptime. The automatic lubrication of the yaw system, main bearing and generator delivers the triple benefit of increased reliability, reduced maintenance time and less frequent servicing. Combined, these factors save you money and maximise your returns on the wind energy produced on all onshore sites. The V112-3.0 MW® can be put into place and maintained using tools and equipment that are standard within the installation and servicing industries – minimising ongoing maintenance costs. Innovative CoolerTop® The CoolerTop® installed on the V112-3.0 MW® uses the wind’s own energy to generate the cooling required rather than consuming energy generated elsewhere. The fact that the CoolerTop® has no moving parts means that it requires little maintenance, shaving costs once more. In addition, the absence of any electrical components ensures that the cooling system makes minimal noise while simultaneously reducing the turbine’s own energy consumption. Finally, the CoolerTop® provides sufficient cooling at altitudes of up to 2,000 m for the turbine to remain operational under the right conditions. This makes the V112-3.0 MW® an ideal choice for those locations high above sea level that were once deemed unsuitable.2012-05-16T13:21:27+02:00http://nozebra.ipapercms.dk/Vestas/Communication/Productbrochure/V11230MW/V11230MWUK1/?Page=9http://nozebra.ipapercms.dk/Vestas/Communication/Productbrochure/V11230MW/V11230MWUK1/?Page=9CoolerTop® – Operation up to 2,000 m with derating under specific conditions – No power consumption for fans – Minimal noise emission from cooling system permanent magnet generator and full scale converter – Simple and effective power system with high efficiency and excellent fault ride through capabilities – PM generator designed by Vestas – Reduced maintenance cost – Highly adaptable for future requirements – HCCBA bearings (High Capacity Bearing) Drive train – Based on proven geared technology – Integrated rotor lock system to improve maintainability pitch system – Design based on V90-3.0 MW® – Double feeding pump system ensuring redundancy and reliability – Solutions for safe work in hub integrated in design blade – Design based on our 44 m blades – 55% larger swept area over V90-3.0 MW® – Large root diameter (Φ2.6 m) ensures blade bearing longevity – Lightning receptors and internal grounding cable integrated – Robust aerodynamic profile less sensitive to airborne contamination yaw system – Design based on V90-3.0 MW® and V90-2.0 MW® – 8 yaw gears – Robust plain bearing with built-in friction (grease lubricated)2012-05-16T13:21:27+02:00http://nozebra.ipapercms.dk/Vestas/Communication/Productbrochure/V11230MW/V11230MWUK1/?Page=10http://nozebra.ipapercms.dk/Vestas/Communication/Productbrochure/V11230MW/V11230MWUK1/?Page=10The passion and experience to secure your wind energy investment 46,000+ The V112-3.0 MW® advances the already proven technology powering over 46,000 installed Vestas turbines worldwide – more than any other supplier.2012-05-16T13:21:27+02:00http://nozebra.ipapercms.dk/Vestas/Communication/Productbrochure/V11230MW/V11230MWUK1/?Page=11http://nozebra.ipapercms.dk/Vestas/Communication/Productbrochure/V11230MW/V11230MWUK1/?Page=11Life testing The Vestas Test Centre has the unique ability to test complete nacelles using e.g. Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT). This rigorous testing of new components ensures the reliability of the V112-3.0 MW® platform. proven technology from the company that proved it Since 1999, Vestas has installed over 2,400 V90-3.0 MW® turbines and more than 9,700 2 MW turbines globally. These workhorses form the basis of the mighty V112-3.0 MW®, which incorporates their thoroughly tested technologies – including the pitch, yaw and control systems, and the drive train concepts. This heritage makes the V112-3.0 MW® your low-risk choice. The V112-3.0 MW® is based upon the proven technologies that underpin the 46,000+ Vestas turbines installed around the world. Using the best features from across the range, as well as some of the industry’s most stringently tested components and systems, this turbine’s reliable design minimises downtime – helping to give you the best possible return on your investment. Reliable and robust product The Vestas Test Centre is unrivalled in the wind industry. We test most of the nacelle components using Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT) to ensure reliability. For critical components, HALT identifies potential failure modes and mechanisms. Specialised test rigs ensure strength and robustness for the gearbox, generator, yaw and pitch system, lubrication system and accumulators. Our qualitycontrol system ensures that each component is produced to design specifications and performs at site. We also employ a Six Sigma philosophy and have identified critical manufacturing processes (both in-house and for suppliers). We systematically monitor measurement trends that are critical to quality, locating defects before they occur.2012-05-16T13:21:27+02:00http://nozebra.ipapercms.dk/Vestas/Communication/Productbrochure/V11230MW/V11230MWUK1/?Page=12http://nozebra.ipapercms.dk/Vestas/Communication/Productbrochure/V11230MW/V11230MWUK1/?Page=12Uninterrupted control of wind energy production, at your service Vestas Online® business All Vestas wind turbines benefit from Vestas Online® Business, the latest Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system for modern wind power plants. This flexible system includes an extensive range of monitoring and management functions to control your wind power plant in the same way as a conventional power plant. Vestas Online® Business enables you to optimise production levels, monitor performance, and produce detailed, tailored reports from anywhere in the world. The system’s power plant controller provides active and reactive power regulation, power ramping and voltage control. Surveillance, maintenance and service Operating a large wind power plant calls for efficient management strategies to ensure uninterrupted power production and to control operational expenses. Vestas provides 24/7 monitoring, performance reporting and predictive maintenance systems to improve turbine performance and availability. Predicting faults in advance is essential to this effort, helping to avoid costly emergency repairs and unscheduled interruptions to energy production. The optional Vestas Condition Monitoring System (CMS) assesses the status of the V112-3.0 MW® turbines by analysing vibration signals. For example, by measuring the vibration of the drive train, it can detect faults at an early stage and monitor the progress of any damage. This information allows the service organisation to perform required maintenance before the component fails, reducing repair costs and production loss. Additionally, our Active Output Management® (AOM) concept provides detailed plans for service and maintenance, online monitoring, optimisation and troubleshooting. It is even possible to get a full availability guarantee, under which we compensate you if the turbine fails to meet agreed availability targets. Vestas turbines include a range of additional features that give you the control you need to maximise your production and ensure a high return on your investment. Thanks to our superior operations and maintenance capabilities, we also provide a level of service unparalleled in the industry.2012-05-16T13:21:27+02:00http://nozebra.ipapercms.dk/Vestas/Communication/Productbrochure/V11230MW/V11230MWUK1/?Page=13http://nozebra.ipapercms.dk/Vestas/Communication/Productbrochure/V11230MW/V11230MWUK1/?Page=13Vestas Online® This SCADA system turns a group of wind turbines into a wind power plant.
