Retrofit efficient protection: Helahook for cables and pipes
Products for wind turbines
Reduce maintenance on existing wind farms. With the robust Helahook, we have developed a reliable cable protection sleeve that is extremely easy to retrofit. Thanks to its outstanding elasticity, it is ideal for bends and different diameters. Installation is a breeze, and service technicians can reopen Helahook at any time.
Ready faster, on the grid sooner: with T- and X-Series cable ties
Products for wind turbines
Time is money, especially where installation is concerned. Based on our core competency, the T- and X-Series are amongst the most economic cable tie solutions. Thanks to universal deployment within the nacelle and binding with our precision tensioning tools (such as the EVO7), it is possible to install the ties in a highly streamlined manner. The unique shape simplifies the looping process and enables speedy working. Furthermore, the durability of the material helps to cut maintenance costs.
Specially recommended for offshore wind turbines: SA47-HT heat shrinkable tubing
Products for wind turbines
Where temperature fluctuations and humidity put a strain on materials, HellermannTyton is on hand to safeguard your cable systems with innovative countermeasures. Our SA47-HT heat shrinkable tubing has a special thermoplastic adhesive liner with a high melting point. As a result, the SA47-HT not only offers corrosion protection, but also snuggles around your cables to provide a stable and watertight sheath. The result is exceptional moisture protection. The SA47 heat shrinkable tubing range offers such excellent corrosion protection that it even meets the exacting demands of the automotive industry – another good reason to incorporate them into your wind turbine.
Heavy duty parts for wind turbines: HellermannTyton thinks ahead where others struggle
Products for wind turbines
Heavy cabling requires unique solutions. Our heavy duty parts, such as specially developed heavy duty mounts for cable ties, can be incorporated into existing screw connections. As a result, it is easy to lay cables in a way that is appropriate for the turbine or make use of existing bolts, especially when it is necessary to guarantee a particular load-bearing capacity. Originally developed for heavy construction machinery and designed to hold cables, pipes, and pressure tubes in place under extreme conditions, our heavy duty parts are perfect for wind turbines on account of their unique properties.
Speed matters. Powerful printing with the TT4030
Products for wind turbines
Print straight onto shrinkable tubes and quickly and easily fill in labels: the TT4030 thermal-transfer printer from HellermannTyton can handle even large print volumes quickly and reliably. Its robust and compact design makes it perfect for universal use.
TagPrint Pro labelling software
Products for wind turbines
The right software for your identification systems gives you independence and makes it possible to produce professional labels in a speedy fashion. TagPrint Pro will boost your performance even further and can even be used to create complete identification signs and cable laminator. Even marking shrinkable tubing is a piece of cake for TagPrint Pro. Labelling with 1204 type labels eliminates the costly use of materials associated with the standard but expensive aluminium plates. The matt, sliver-coloured 1204 labels are perfect for the production of special type labels for flat and level surfaces, such as on device housing and switch cabinets. Thanks to the wide selection of formats, you retain a great deal of flexibility in terms of labelling and can create individual solutions at any time. The adhesive used by HellermannTyton is ideal for critical surfaces such as paints and plastics. The enormous temperature stability of up to +150 °C makes these labels suitable for a vast array of applications.
Development expertise that stems from passion
Products for wind turbines
The story of the PMB5 paste adhesive mount is a prime example of the restlessness of our engineers and developers, who have no intention of settling for the status quo. Originally, the mount comprised four components. Every time, a metal base plate, a separator and a cable socket had to be elaborately held together with a screw. Paste adhesive was then applied at the point of installation. This lengthy installation process was a bugbear for our developers and, a short while later, the first designs for the PMB5 were submitted. This was followed by plenty of tinkering and testing. The solution from HellermannTyton: a single component made from special high-strength plastic that is quick to install, light as a feather and corrosion-proof. Why settle for three components that give you one benefit when you can have one component that gives you three? That’s how we think here at HellermannTyton. And there’s no denying that we’re quite proud of the result.
