A passive yaw sliding bearing with a robust yet simple design that guarantees optimum performance throughout the life of the turbine. As few components are needed, this bearing is reliable and virtually maintenance free, so there’s less need for outages or downtime. Brake torque is applied continuously and the system slides on the yaw bearing, so you don’t need an additional brake disc. The brake torque is mainly dependent on surface pressure and friction coefficient, so variations can be built in during the design process

• Fully closed passive brake system
• Special epoxy resin pads
• Min / Max working temperature -40°C / + 60°C
