Description
Hydrogenerators are synchronous generators for hydroelectric power stations of all types. The company has more than 120 years of experience in this field, has supplied hydrogenerators with an output of up to 350 MVA driven by any type of turbine and, according to its own data, accounts for about 50 % of the hydrogenerator fleet installed in France. Among the historical projects is the Rance tidal power station (24 MW, commissioned in 1968): the company built 12 of the 24 capsule units, 12 generators and 6 turbines; the rotational speed of the units is 94 rpm in a sealed capsule. The current technical programme covers power from 1 to 150 MVA, from 4 to 100 poles, in horizontal or vertical versions. The generators are adapted to any station layout. Cooling is provided by internal radial uniform ventilation, which ensures low thermal and mechanical stresses and extends the service life of the equipment. As with other machines, the generators can be fitted with air or water coolers or cooled by ambient air. For small hydropower (mini hydro) the company offers a comprehensive project: integrated supply of generators, turbines and gates, automation, regulation, protection, distribution and civil works, as well as maintenance engineering: diagnostics, repair, support, modernisation with improved characteristics and training. Work is carried out on asbestos-containing machines at a certified facility. Generators are supplied with own excitation and regulation systems: digital regulators SARN-V2 (approved by EDF and CNR) and HYDRALTA NG, and brushless exciters with a rotating rectifier. The company also supports hydrogenerators throughout their life cycle, from commissioning to rehabilitation and complete reconstruction of stators and rotors. Production base: specialised plants in France (Champagne-sur-Seine, Carquefou, Étupes) and a plant in India (Vadodara); at the main site there are a 5.4 m diameter impregnation tank, 55 overhead cranes, four test platforms and four balancing stands.
