Customer review
“At one of our LM6000PD sites in the harbour area of Antwerp Belgium, the starting system was converted to accommodate a TDI starter clutch.”
The Customer is convinced it will ensure trouble free operation for at least 25K OH and avoid catastrophic failures as experienced with the current ones.
Thanks to a thorough preparation and communication between all parties involved, all components and
test procedures where at hand, resulting in a successful modification, no surprises occurred.
The clutch successfully performed as expected during test start/base load and observed parameters within normal limits.
The customer has converted a total of eleven LM6000 gas turbines to a TDI Clutch
