SGen-2000P generator series

Global Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (GVPI) wound stator cores

The SGen-2000P implements technology featuring the latest verified design with more than 1,700 GVPI stators in operation across all operating ranges and a fleet-leading water-cooled GVPI stator with over 151,000 hours of operation and more than 3,320 start/stop cycles with no indication of thermal-mechanical stress-related issues. Without the application of hydrogen, the SGen-2000P series offers you the added benefit of unstaffed operation, e.g. for synchronous condenser applications.

Global Vaccuum Pressure Impregnation (GVPI) stator cores

Our patented MICALASTIC® insulation system using GVPI is highly resistant to mechanical and thermal stresses while featuring excellent electrical properties.

Pressurized-air rotor cooling

Our patent-pending load-dependent air pressurization system enables rotor cooling during flexible operating conditions.

Service and maintenance

The SGen-2000P generator series was designed for simplified service and maintenance. Along with eliminating hydrogen-related generator auxiliaries, various service-friendly design solutions have been implemented. Its components have been tried and tested over decades of operation, achieving a reliability rate of more than 99.9%. To minimize downtime, the maintenance intervals have been aligned with those of the prime mover and now allow for longer intervals between servicing than ever before. The rotor is designed for lifetime operation without removal for service.

Short construction and commissioning times

Our generators arrive on site almost fully assembled with the rotor installed – a design feature that simplifies the installation process. Our certified engineers have extensive experience in commissioning and help you to achieve faster start-up times and smooth operation.
The SGen-2000P is designed for easy access. The many manholes installed allow for the majority of maintenance to be completed requiring very little generator disassembly.

Condition-based maintenance

Besides standard inspection scopes and intervals, you also have the option of implementing a condition-based maintenance plan using customized installed instrumentation, component analytics, and a remaining life counter for better predictions. Based on advanced data analytics performed by experts in our network of power diagnostics centers, we can advise you on a maintenance schedule according to your specific operation conditions and needs.

State-of-the-art manufacturing

Our reliable and robust generator is the result of our manufacturing and engineering design teams working in close collaboration throughout its development. By applying the latest digital technologies, our manufacturing facilities stepped up to create a world-class product for you with excellent lead times.

Manufacturing excellence

Our SGen-2000P generator design focuses on the strengths of our manufacturing facilities using tried-and-tested manufacturing processes and newly co-developed processes to efficiently build generators for you.

Manufacturing technology

Our manufacturing facilities implement as many automated processes as possible, resulting in a high ratio of repetition in the construction of our generators. Automated processes are key to building high-quality, robust generators that operate reliably for you.

Hydrogen eliminated

Our SGen-2000P series combines two proven technologies in one innovative concept. The generator operates with air up to 560 MVA and features variable pressurization with water-cooled stator windings. This enables the flexible operation demanded by today's evolving electrical grids. By eliminating hydrogen gas auxiliary systems, the SGen-2000P series' operating and maintenance costs are lower than those of traditional hydrogen-cooled products in this output class.

Water-cooled Global Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (GVPI) stator

Directly water-cooled stator bars protect against thermal-mechanical stress-related issues that are challenging for indirectly cooled coils in a highly cyclic environment.

Hydrogen systems eliminated

The SGen-2000P eliminates all hydrogen-related systems – seal oil, hydrogen and inert gas systems – maintaining only a pressurized air skid and a stator water system. Thereby, the hazardous system requirements that applied to the use of hydrogen are avoided – another huge benefit for our customers.
