Protection solutions for the tower of wind power plants
The tower is the largest, art of a wind power plant. It can weigh up to several hundred tons. It holds the nacelle and the rotors of the wind turbine. The height of the tower depends on its location. At locations with strong winds – for example, on the coast – a lower height is sufficient compared to locations with high terrain roughness such as forests.
Particularly robust and durable electrical installation solutions are required here, regardless of whether it is a steel tower, a concrete tower or a hybrid wind turbine tower. This is because the cable support systems, such as cable ducts or cable ladders, are used along the entire length of the wind turbine tower. OBO offers special solutions for the safe installation of power and data cables in wind turbine towers.
Reliably protect the wind turbine tower with OBO
- Reliable cable ladder and vertical ladder systems, such as the extremely resilient LCIS welded cable ladder. It is suitable for vertical routing of all kinds of cables according to DIN EN 61537
- Hold-down clamps for stable fastening of the cable ladders
- Profile and mounting rails for the safe routing of cables
- Bridging cable made of flexible, insulated copper wire as an accessory for safe external lightning protection
- The clamp clips are characterised by great support, stability and safety, and can thus withstand heavy cable weights as well as vibrations inside the tower without any problems.
- The weather-proof PYROWRAP cable bandage® wet made of flexible fabric with fire protection coating reliably prevents fire spreading via the routed power and data cables
