Sustainable Braking
Active cooling for wind turbine brake systems
Page last modified
May 10 2023
The patented Ogab® Sustainable Braking system prevents critical wind turbine failures due to fires and significantly reduces maintenance costs and operational downtime. Its innovative active cooling technology prevents heat escalation in the braking system to increase safety levels and reliability whilst extending the lifespan of system components.
Pro/con
Increased safety
Reduced maintenance and operational downtime
Extended component lifespan
A significantly greater ROI
The cooling technology was tested on an existing brake system, thus not achieving its full potential
Specification
Areas of Application
Wind turbine braking systems.
Capabilities
Offering optimised braking temperatures to ensure maximum efficiency, a reduction in degradation of parts and need for maintenance.
Safety
Significantly reduces risk of turbine fires, through controlling the temperature of the operating environment.
Maintanence
Little to no maintenance required due to no moving parts and light weight yet highly durable components.
Management
A system that requires no ongoing management due to its one time installation set-up.
