Description
Schunk Wind Turbine Shaft Grounding Brushes and Modules
Schunk shaft grounding brushes and carbon-fibre-based systems divert capacitive shaft currents through a controlled grounding path. They are selected for the generator and shaft arrangement to help limit electrical damage to bearings and connected drivetrain components.
Technical specifications and selection
| Manufacturer / brand | Schunk Carbon Technology |
|---|---|
| Product family | Wind generator shaft grounding brushes and modules |
| Primary function | Diversion of capacitive shaft currents |
| Material options | Carbon brush materials or carbon-fibre-based systems |
| High-frequency duty | Custom modules available for high-frequency current diversion |
| Application environment | Onshore and offshore wind generators, to selected configuration |
| Mechanical selection | Shaft diameter, contact surface, mounting space and grounding connection |
| Electrical selection | Measured current spectrum and required grounding performance |

Applications and selection
For generator repair businesses and turbine maintenance teams addressing shaft-current problems. These grounding components perform a different duty from brushes transferring generator power or slip rings carrying pitch-control signals. Selection should follow electrical measurements and inspection of the existing installation.
Information for your quotation
Provide generator make and model, shaft diameter, photographs and drawings of the grounding arrangement, available mounting space and measured shaft-current information. Identify whether individual replacement brushes or a complete module is needed.
The quotation defines the selected configuration, included items and order quantity.
