New grease from Klüber Lubrication reduces wind turbine bearing heat

By WPED Staff | November 25, 2019

Klüber Lubrication, a worldwide manufacturer of specialty lubricants, introduces Klübersynth BZ 68-400, a lubricant specifically designed to mitigate hot bearings in wind turbines.

Hardened residues that accumulate on generator bearings can become a nuisance and prevent efficient operation. Most situations require cleaning by hand, or the wind power turbines must be curtailed which results in costly downtime.

Klübersynth BZ 68-400 applied to a bearing.

To minimize maintenance and help wind power plants operate at maximum power output, Klübersynth BZ 68-400 frees residues while protecting bearings and providing reliable lubrication against wear and corrosion. As a result of this powerful grease, rolling bearings can be cleaned while in operation.

Klübersynth BZ 68-400 is compatible with several types of base oil, making it a versatile, high-performance solution that can be used beyond wind turbines.
