In the June issue of the journal “Pumpen-Aktuell” the DSgear-set®and the project at PCK are presented. For the whole article please open the following link: DSgear-set regelt Drehzahl bei PCK
SET’s electro-mechanical differential gear points the way ahead for the entire wind sector. In the interim this technology, DSgear-set, is also meeting with great interest in industry.
In the 4th quarter of 2014 Sulzer Pumps GmbH awarded SET GmbH a contract to install its electro-mechanical differential gear system (DSgear-set®) at the PCK refinery in Schwedt (Germany). By the 2nd quarter of 2015 the DSgear-set® will replace the existing direct drive system in order to meet future challenges in terms of sustainability and life cycle costs (LCC). SET’s electro-mechanical differential gear emerged as the best technology ahead of the competition in view of its speed variability range, efficiency, and robustness.
The DSgear-set® has to provide a rated power of 4,080 kW for a boiler feed-water pump, which is essential for the refinery processes at the site. In this flagship project the operating companies expect the DSgear-set® to ensure high cost savings, maximum reliability and Efficiency.Due to the excellent cooperation between the companies involved, follow-up projects are planned.
From 26-28 Sep, SET GmbH was at Hamburg Exhibition! The appearance of SET together with AVL was a great success and was very well received by the visitors. Talking to costumer our team consisting of Peter Prebio, Maximilian Hehenberger and Markus Waldner was able to emphasize the benefits of DSgen-set® and engineering expertise of SET (together with AVL).
Above all, the introduction of the new product “torque ramp-down unit” has found a very positive response from all those who operate or offer DFIG equipment. This new technology, which can be used as an inexpensive and highly efficient load shedding device, led to some new and interesting business contacts.
We wish to thank all our visitors for their interest and all partners for the excellent collaboration, looking forward to the next presentations in 2015.
