The newly developed predesigned steam turbine SST-040 is a generator drive specially
designed for the 75-300 kW power range. This favorably priced turbine features a simple,
extremely compact design, short start-up times and a high degree of operational reliability.
Turbine design
The SST-040 is a single-stage impulse turbine. The inlet steam flow is directed onto the turbine rotor blades, where
mechanical power is generated when the steam flow direction changes. The resulting impulse spins the rotor, and the
power is transferred from the turbine via the gear to the generator.
The control and operating unit with a 12-inch touch panel covers all
necessary monitoring functions.

Gear
The design of the integral gear, manufactured in our Siemens
workshop, was chosen to fit perfectly to the design of the turbine. The gear box includes the pressure-lubricated sleeve bearings and the gearwheels. Ground gearing and tooth contact
pattern adjustment during assembly guarantee extremely low
vibration levels and low noise.
Oil unit
The integrated oil supply consists of an auxiliary oil pump
with electric start-motor, a mechanically driven main oil
pump, an exchangeable duplex oil filter and air-cooled oil
cooler.
The control and protection unit covers all necessary monitoring functions. A clearly arranged 12-inch touch panel shows
all relevant data. For data transmission to an existing external
control system, the control and protection unit is equipped
with a Profibus interface.
The circuit breaker with motor drive and subvoltage release
establishes the connection with the power network.
Base frame
The SST-040 steam turbine is delivered as a pre-tested packageunit with turbine, gear, generator, oil unit, control and protection unit as well as circuit breaker, built upon a base frame. The
lightweight turbine package has a space requirement of approx.
1.5m x 2.5m x 2m (breadth x length x height) and a weight of
around 4,500 kg.
