Emergency Power Unit (EPU)

The Windurance Emergency Power Unit (EPU) is engineered to provide reliable and immediate blade pitch control in all situations requiring back-up power to the wind turbine blades.

One EPU is required for each blade and works in conjunction with the central pitch control unit (PCU). The EPU provides the power to a responsive electric motor.

The EPU has been engineered with the latest advances in technology to provide a long and reliable service life.

EPU Features:

  • Smart charging system extends battery service life
  • Individual battery charging and health monitoring
  • Charging and discharging from -40 to +50ºC
  • High capacity, long-life SLA batteries
  • Available with 5, 10 or 20 year ultra-capacitors
