Moog Rekofa slip ring transmitter WP7171 for Suzlon S64 & S88

Wind turbines require reliable transmission of power and data signals from the nacelle to the control system for the rotary blades. Moog’s slip rings provide the performance and quality needed in demanding environments. Costly downtime is eliminated by using fiber brushes and robust mechanical components in the slip ring design.

Moog developed and patented the fiber brush technology for high reliability slip rings. The patented approach has led to hundreds of different slip ring designs for challenging applications. The unique feature of the fiber brush technology is its ability to perform in environmental and operational extremes. In addition, the fiber brush has the capability to handle high power while at the same time transferring data signals. And all this performance while maintenance free for over 100 million revolutions.
