<strong>Voith</strong> <strong>Turbo</strong> hydrodynamic <strong>drives</strong> are in service in <strong>the</strong> <strong>oil</strong>, <strong>gas</strong> <strong>and</strong> petrochemical<br />

industry under <strong>the</strong> toughest conditions around <strong>the</strong> world.<br />

These <strong>drives</strong> are installed at facilities from production to transportation<br />

to processing. On offshore plat<strong>for</strong>ms, natural <strong>gas</strong> pipelines, crude<br />

<strong>oil</strong> <strong>and</strong> liquid pipelines, refineries, petrochemical plants <strong>and</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

industrial facilities, in <strong>the</strong> desert, or in arctic environments – <strong>Voith</strong><br />

<strong>drives</strong> are running 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. These environments<br />

require equipment that can operate economically <strong>and</strong> with maximum<br />

reliability inspite of <strong>the</strong> difficult operating conditions.<br />

Efficient <strong>and</strong> reliable <strong>drives</strong> <strong>for</strong> controlling pumps<br />

<strong>and</strong> compressors are a necessity <strong>for</strong> reduced<br />

operating costs, increased profitability <strong>and</strong>, above<br />

all, a smooth production process. <strong>Variable</strong>-<strong>speed</strong><br />

<strong>drives</strong> by <strong>Voith</strong> <strong>Turbo</strong> deliver <strong>the</strong> highest possible<br />

reliability, availability <strong>and</strong> efficiency. This per<strong>for</strong>mance<br />

is <strong>the</strong> result of <strong>the</strong> companies’ continuous<br />

research <strong>and</strong> development.<br />

Powers of 100 to 50 000 kW <strong>and</strong> <strong>speed</strong>s of 100 to<br />

20 000 rpm can be transmitted with <strong>Voith</strong> hydrodynamic<br />

variable-<strong>speed</strong> <strong>drives</strong>.<br />

Advantages provided<br />

by <strong>the</strong> hydrodynamic <strong>drives</strong><br />

■ Reliability of 99.9 %*<br />

■ Availability of 99.8 %*<br />

■ Highest efficiency<br />

■ Optimum price/per<strong>for</strong>mance ratio<br />

■ Application in explosive <strong>and</strong> dusty environments<br />

at extreme temperatures<br />

■ Very long trouble-free operating periods (MTBF)<br />

■ Compact <strong>and</strong> robust design<br />

■ Easy maintenance<br />

■ Excellent control accuracy <strong>and</strong> high control<br />

dynamics<br />

■ Vibration damping<br />

■ Integrated lube <strong>oil</strong> system supplying lube <strong>oil</strong> to<br />

<strong>the</strong> driver <strong>and</strong> driven machine<br />

■ Availability of spare parts guaranteed <strong>for</strong> many<br />

years<br />
