WEG’s new WD10 generators translate exactly into performance, extended lifetime, reduced cost and low maintenance rates.
The most expensive square footage in the world can be found on Oil and Gas platforms and vessels. In environments where space is a luxury item, nothing could be better than to create a product that meets all needs and is compact.
WEG’s new WD10 generators translate exactly into performance, extended lifetime, reduced cost and low maintenance rates. All these features make the WD10 the most suitable solution for platforms, vessels and other applications in the naval segment.
They also represent a reduction of 37% in size compared to air-water heat exchanger (IC81W) generators.
Since the WD10 is cooled by water, the emission of heat into the environment is minimum and the noise level is very much reduced when compared to the air-cooled machines. This system removes the heat generated by the electrical machine with the circulation of water inside the frame.
The WD10 generators are qualified for the ABS, Lloyd’s Register, DNV and BV certifications, among others. They are recommended for all environments, even under the most aggressive conditions.
