WINDPLUS-320

WIND TURBINE GEAR OIL

Product Description

WINDPLUS is an advanced fully synthetic wind turbine gear oil which  offers exceptional lubrication performance, even under severe operating conditions. The innovative formulation is developed to protect your wind turbine gears and bearings by minimizing wear, protecting against micro-pitting, maintaining effective fluidity at extremes of low temperature and minimizing foam formation. WINDPLUS offers the potential to significantly extend service intervals when compared to conventional mineral industrial gear oils and has been developed to reduce bearing surface stresses.


Benefits

·      Long oil life–Maintenance saving- WINDPLUS is designed with an innovative additive technology blended in a new generation, very high performance metallocene Poly-Alpha-Olefin (mPAO) base fluid that delivers an outstanding resistance to degradation throughout the maintenance interval. It will defend against deposit formation to prolong oil and gearbox life.  


Excellent wear & corrosion protectionWINDPLUS provides high levels of load carrying  capacity,  high  micro-pitting  performance  and scuffing resistance in a wide range of operating temperatures, even under low speed / high torque loading conditions. These features provide significant benefits to promote long term gear and bearing life. 


Enhanced system efficiency - WINDPLUS is developed to maintain and enhance the efficiency of wind turbine gearboxes through improved low temperature fluidity, rapid air release, resistance to foam formation, and excellent water separation properties


·    Cleanliness- High levels of fluid cleanliness is maintained throughout manufacture, offering the levels required by stringent leading Wind Turbine and gearbox Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM). WINDPLUS exceeds the requirements of relevant filtration equipment manufacturers for the wind turbine industry
