Air Condensers Gear Units

Optimized drive solutions for air cooled condensers

The steam circulates through a heat exchanger which is cooled by the air flowing round it. The accumulated condensate is collected and re-used in the power plant process. FLENDER gear units are specially designed for condensing turbines in power plants. The fan is directly mounted on the two-stage helical gear unit which absorbs the reactive forces of the rotor via a reinforced output bearing arrangement. The gear units are optimized for both fixed and variable speeds and are characterized by high operational reliability.
