Hamburg, 26 April 2018. The Nordex Group is extending its Delta4000 product
series introduced in autumn 2017 to include a turbine especially designed
for strong-wind sites: the N133/4.8.
The rotor blade from the proven N131 turbine has been integrated into the
Delta4000 series for the N133/4.8. By combining this rotor blade with the
hub and nacelle of the N149/4.0-4.5, also from the Delta4000 product series,
it was possible to increase the rotor diameter to 133 metres. The Nordex
Group has also raised the maximum output to 4.8 MW in order to make optimal
use of high wind speeds, resulting in an additional yield of up to 39 per
cent for the N133/4.8 compared to the previous N100/3300 model, also
optimised for strong-wind sites. With this turbine, the Group sets new
standards in the strong-wind segment for both rotor diameter and maximum
output.
The technical innovations embodied in the Delta4000 series' first turbine,
the N149/4.0-4.5, such as an improved service concept, a mobile crane
solution and a more efficient electrical system, are also integral to the
new N133/4.8, resulting in a significant drop in cost of energy.
As with the N149/4.0-4.5, the sound power level of the N133/4.8 is
particularly low. Equipped with serrations, the N133/4.8 turbine's sound
level is limited to just 106 dB(A) when under full power, and this can be
reduced as required, depending on location, to 98 dB(A) by using numerous
different operating modes. The fully flexible control system can even be
adapted for special cases such as public holidays or certain times of the
day.
Hub heights of 78, 83 and 110 metres ensure that any strict height
restrictions can be complied with. This means that even under complex site
conditions and with height restrictions of 145 metres the N133/4.8 can be
operated efficiently and safely.
The N133/4.8 is particularly suitable for regions with strong winds in
north-west Europe, such as Great Britain and Norway, as well as for sites
with high wind speeds in Turkey, Australia and Central and South America.
The start of series production of the N133/4.8 is scheduled for 2019.
The Nordex Group - a profile
The Group has installed more than 23 GW of wind energy capacity in over 25
markets and in 2017 generated revenues of EUR 3.1 billion. The company
currently employs a workforce of approx. 5,000. The joint manufacturing
capacity includes factories in Germany, Spain, Brazil, the United States and
India. The product portfolio is focused on onshore turbines in the 1.5 to
4.8 MW class, which are tailor-made for the market requirements in countries
with limited space and regions with limited grid capacity.
