Removing Leaks from Pitch-Bearing Seals
Challenge
To prevent pitch-bearing seals from leaking grease and damaging the bearings, prevent water ingress and avoiding cleanup and maintenance costs.
Solution
A static seal was converted to an improved rotary seal design, with upgraded material and design features.
Result
Six-month testing proved the seal to be virtually flawless. The retrofit saved the turbine OEM $15 million per year.
