Generators for wind turbines

Standard slip ring generator series
for doubly-fed concept
from 1.5-3.6 MW
Featuring a new innovative slip ring unit (SRU) series

ABBs well proven standard DF product family
expands with the main stream to the 3 MW turbine class.
New low maintenance SRU design reliability from leading manufacturer

Modular component structure with both air or water cooling
Customer specific modifications to fit in most turbines used today
Proven rotor design for overspeeds and converter voltage stresses
The doubly-fed (DF) generator concept
The DF generator is a wound rotor asynchronous machine,
with the rotor windings connected to a small converter via
slip-rings and brushes. The generator feeds power both from
the directly connected stator (approx. 2/3 of Pn) and the
rotor (approx. 1/3 of Pn). The converter enables control of the

generator speed, power and power factor, thus giving a wider
speed range for production and providing the ability to feed
reactive power to support the grid.
