OptiSlip
The V47-660 kW turbine features the unique generator
principle OptiSlip, which allows both the rotor and the
generator to vary their RPM by up to 10% to cope with
violent gusts of wind. In addition to reducing the load
on various parts of the turbine, the OptiSlip system also
ensures an appreciably better power quality.
Lightning protection
The V47-660 kW turbine is equipped with Vestas Lightning Protection, to protect the entire turbine from the
tips of the blades to the foundation.
Flexible blades
Proven Performance
We spend many months testing and documenting the
performance of the Vestas turbines. When we are finally
satisfied, we run one last check by allowing an independent organisation to verify the results. This is standard
practice at Vestas a procedure we call Proven Performance. It is our guarantee that your Vestas turbine meets
the very highest requirements for energy production,
availability factor, power quality and sound levels.

OptiSlip allows the revolution speeds of both the rotor and the generator to
vary by approx. 10%. This reduces both unwanted fluctuations in the
grid supply and the loads on the vital parts of the construction.
