With the rapid growth of renewable energy, wind power, solar farms, and energy storage systems now rely heavily on oil-based fluids for lubrication, cooling, and electrical insulation. These systems often operate in harsh environments, including high altitudes, deserts, and offshore areas, where equipment performance is critical and failures are costly.
In wind turbines, for example, gearbox lubricating oil must maintain stable viscosity and thermal properties to protect moving parts from wear. In photovoltaic inverter stations and battery storage systems, heat dissipation and insulation depend on specialized cooling oils or dielectric fluids.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, PUSH offers the following equipment:
Monitors oil flow properties to detect degradation in lubricants.
Ensures that thermal fluids and coolants remain within safe flammability limits.
Evaluates long-term chemical stability of oils under high temperature.
Important for systems operating in cold climates, where fluidity at low temperatures is critical.
The benefits of push detection equipment in renewable resource systems include:
Our instruments are compatible with both traditional and new generation fluid types used in modern renewable energy systems, making them an important part of any O&M strategy.
