// Generator mounts are designed to support wind turbine generators. In order to compensate for production tolerances, most of our generator mounts can be vertically adjusted. All mounts have an end stop in order to safely transmit the tension load in the event of a short circuit.

Generator Mounts

Fields of application

Machine mounts are used for the elastic mounting of free-standing generators and other machinery.

ESM's machine mounts insulate the structure-borne noise generated and damp the vibrations of the generator and machine frame.

These mounts are used not only for generators, but also for other machines such as oil pumps, emergency power units and stationary diesel engines.

Depending on the type of bearing, the integrated height adjustment enables the generator to be levelled by up to 13 mm. All mounts are also equipped with a stop in order to safely transmit the tensile stress occurring in the event of a short circuit.

ESM generator mounts are of course designed to meet the requirements of the relevant system type. To protect them against corrosion, the metal components can be galvanized, hot dip galvanized or made out of stainless steel.

Newly developed horizontal adjustment

ESM generator mounts are now available with integrated horizontal adjustment in addition to vertical adjustment.

Horizontal adjustment is performed by means of an Allen screw accessible from either outside or inside.

Vertical adjustment is carried out using an Allen key from above through the hole in the generator foot.

The generator is fixed to the generator mount by a M24 screw. Horizontal adjustment is possible over a range of ± 5 mm.

The height of the generator mount is adjustable throughout a range of 132-142mm. Other heights are available upon request.

 

Examples

Integrated horizontal and vertical adjustment
2 MW wind turbine
Thanks to its particularly flat design, the generator mount can be installed in even the most restricted spaces, enabling height adjustment of 13 mm.

Generator mounts with a robust and compact design are particularly suitable for installation in very restricted spaces, enabling a height adjustment of 10 mm.

The particularly robust machine mount can transmit large forces in the vertical thrust and tension direction as well as horizontally.
