Turbines are comprised of subsystems working in unison to efficiently and safely produce power. ABB products are used throughout these subsystems, from the emergency stop button to the generator.
ABB’s proven products for wind turbines are designed and built to operate for long life cycles under the varied and harsh operating conditions common to turbines. ABB engineers with years of wind power experience help design the products and work with turbine manufacturers to correctly and efficiently integrate these products into turbine designs.

ABB’s motors and generators often play a critical role in the plants in which they operate.
In many cases the complete process would be brought to a halt if the motor or generator stopped working. Downtime may result in considerable costs in terms of lost production, waste and damage, so the availability of this equipment is a top priority.
We supply genuine spare parts, spare part packages and maintenance kits for all ABB motors and generators. We can also provide exchange units for wind power generators. As we are the original equipment manufacturer, you can rely on us to supply the correct part. Where technology has advanced, we may be able to provide a part that is even better than the original. We can also help you to rationalize your on-site spare part stocks.

A fully tailored service agreement gives you the best possible fit with your needs.
Our experts will help you to design the ideal agreement for you. The process starts with a free-of-charge risk analysis of all the motor and generator systems at your site. In addition, we will analyze your service requirements – carefully reviewing the condition of your equipment and its importance in your operations – and recommend the most appropriate service agreement.
Our service agreements take your competencies and resources into account and are based on the optimum way of sharing the work. In particular, when technical support or remote troubleshooting services are added to the agreement it becomes critical to have competent personnel present on-site. Based on our recommendation you can select the service elements to include in the agreement. For additional convenience, a number of service plans can be coordinated under a single agreement.
An ABB service agreement is the most efficient way to manage the total life cycle of the motors, generators and mechanical power transmission products at your plant, while minimizing production risks.

When a motor or generator needs replacing, do it the easy way - contact your local ABB representative.
Replacing existing equipment with a new ABB product is a great investment: the new unit’s superior efficiency and performance can ensure a very short payback time. Whether you select a new motor or generator from our wide range of standard items or choose a tailor made unit, we can generally optimize it to replace your existing equipment.
In most cases we will be able to adapt the electrical designs to make the replacement fully interchangeable with the original. Utilizing our know-how and experience, we can easily provide replacements for third party products.
For the plant operator this helps to minimize the downtime, required site work and risks. An added benefit of a tailor made, fully interchangeable replacement is that you may be able to keep your existing machine as a spare.
We will be pleased to help you evaluate the potential to increase production, reliability and availability as well as decrease energy and maintenance costs with a replacement product from ABB.

Replacement units for the wind industry.
There are many benefits for wind farm owners and operators in having a replacement generator rapidly available if major generator damage occurs. Ordering a replacement unit from the factory will typically mean downtime of up to 20 weeks. Such a long period of downtime will naturally cause huge production losses.
To help our customers overcome this problem, we have developed the ABB replace and recycle service. As part of the service, we have established two storage facilities for rapid generator replacement. We store several units of the largest wind power generator fleets. These are located in Denmark (50 Hz generators) and the USA (60 Hz units).
The ‘recycle’ aspect of the service means that you exchange your damaged generator for the replacement unit. We repair and refurbish the damaged generators to as-new condition and place them in storage.
Wind farms that use our replace and recycle service have generators available for rapid replacement if a production unit gets damaged. This cuts downtime and reduces production losses.
With the market’s widest service network globally, and service engineers standing by to carry out repairs on-site or in authorized workshops, we can offer different repair options to match your needs.

All equipment is subject to aging and the lifetime of components is limited. Therefore it’s important to take the right action to avoid an eventual component failure.
Hardware upgrades represent an effective way of extending the lifetime of a motor or generator. ABB’s turnkey hardware upgrade service uses the latest technology to deliver improved performance in terms of efficiency, reliability and safety.
Automatic Voltage Regulator upgrades for synchronous generators
The Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) upgrade service is designed to prevent unexpected generator downtime due to malfunctioning of the AVR, as well as providing ongoing technical support. Rather than replacing the old AVR with an identical unit, we offer upgrades with the new Unitrol AVR.
Control panel upgrades for synchronous motors
ABB has extensive experience in excitation systems for synchronous motors. ABB motor control panels (MCP) are carefully designed with reliable and high quality components to ensure high availability and reliability. Replacing old motor control equipment with a new state-of-the-art MCP is an investment in availability, reliability and functionality.
Brushless exciter upgrades for synchronous motors and generators
UNICITER® is a brushless exciter for upgrading synchronous motors and generators from conventional DC motor excitation to state-of-the-art rotating diode bridge technology. It is an ideal solution for replacing obsolete DC exciter motors. Upgrades of old DC or slip-ring excitation systems can be done on both ABB and non ABB synchronous motors and generators
Advanced services are designed to support your decision making process, helping you make choices that will maximize availability and reduce the risks associated with operating and maintaining motors and generators.
The solutions delivered not only cover management related decisions – on issues like the correct channeling of investment budgets - but also address highly technical concerns like diagnostics, prognostics, load optimization, and troubleshooting.
The solutions are oriented with life cycle management concepts so that, rather than concentrating only on the lowest cost of purchase, they focus on the lowest cost of operation over the lifetime of the asset
