PSI Repair Services to Showcase Its Extensive Product Upgrade
Capabilities at the AWEA WINDPOWER 2014 Conference & Exhibition
LIVONIA, Mich., April 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- PSI Repair Services,
Inc., a subsidiary of Phillips Service Industries and leading
independent service provider (ISP) to the wind energy industry, will
showcase its extensive product upgrade capabilities to wind farm
operations and maintenance (O&M) professionals at the AWEA WINDPOWER
2014 Conference & Exhibition.
This flexible, cost-effective engineering service involves enhancing
legacy components with newer, more reliable technology to improve
performance and extend the component's life. The most common product
upgrade service performed at PSI is printed circuit boards. In certain
scenarios, PSI engineers provide new replacement circuit boards with
enhanced technology. Two other popular product upgrades are the GE
1.5MW S Series XantrexT Matrix Inverter and the Clipper 2.5MW Xantrex
Inverter. These convenient drop-in replacement solutions allow wind
farms to supplement their shrinking inventory with more dependable,
longer-lasting products, all while keeping their turbines online. In
addition, PSI provides comprehensive remanufacturing services for
unsalvageable, obsolete components.
"Thanks to innovative engineering services like product upgrades, PSI
actively supports all the largest wind farms in the United States,"
said Mike Fitzpatrick, General Manager of PSI Repair Services, Inc.
"No other ISP in the wind energy market offers more cost-saving
solutions than PSI."
PSI Repair Services offers component repair and engineering services
for GE, Vestas, Siemens and Clipper wind turbines. PSI covers the
critical electronic, hydraulic and precision mechanical components
that drive the turbines' pitch and yaw systems and down-tower
electronics. Commonly repaired components include printed circuit
boards, pitch drive systems, inverters, IGBTs, PLCs, VRCC units,
AEBIs, proportional valves, hydraulic pumps, pitch and yaw motors,
encoders, slip rings, transducers, and more. PSI uses the latest
diagnostic tools to detect failures down to the microchip level.
The WINDPOWER 2014 Conference & Exhibition takes place May 5-8 at the
Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, NV. PSI Repair Services
will be exhibiting in Booth 3170. For more information about the
