IPS provides technical field services, repair, and replacement for large and extra-large AC & DC generators for industrial and commercial applications. We also service and repair emergency standby generator systems.
Learn more about our specific generator capabilities below:
IPS specializes in keeping wind turbine generator work up-tower, to minimize crane costs and downtime. This predictive and preventive maintenance includes:
Our field service technicians handle all types of repairs, including slip rings, bearings, and precision machining inside the nacelle, plus:
The IPS wind turbine generator rewind solves the problem of specific failure modes. WindGuard withstands the high-voltage transients and high-duty cycles wind power requires.
The ability to maintain flexibility with zero thermal aging during rapid thermal cycling makes WindGuard the most robust engineered insulation system in wind power.
IPS field service technicians work closely with our engineers on generator troubleshooting and analysis, scheduled maintenance, and replacement. We test, repair, and provide on-site B-stage rewinds for stators too large to fit in a 14-foot VPI tank.
Our electrical tests include:
IPS veteran field service technicians and electrical engineers also complete detailed and documented visual inspections of generators.
In addition to on-site stator and rotor rewinds, we provide complete generator disassembly and repair. We also repair and replace bearings, shafts, and exciters.
HydroCoil™ is our premium, B-stage, resin-rich stator coil for hydro generator rewinds up to 15 kV and 50 MW. IPS and hydro utility engineers collaborated on its development.
This B-stage hard coil maximizes stator winding reliability and exceeds IEEE 1553-2002 and IEEE 1147-2005 hydro industry testing and rehabilitation standards.
We service, repair, and rewind large turbine generators in North America and around the world. IPS technicians and engineers complete prime power turbine work for steam, diesel, natural gas, and biogas turbines.
Our rotor testing and diagnostics guide our root cause reporting and engineering recommendations. IPS recommends regular rotor testing to increase uptime and avoid unscheduled outages.
Rotor tests include:
IPS stator tests include:
We repair and overhaul large turbine generator rotors, stators, and exciters. IPS also redesigns and retrofits these generators, increasing insulation class or redesigning for higher kW output.
When blueprints are unavailable, we disassemble old generators, reverse engineer, then design, manufacture and install new components.
IPS Power Systems provides critical power solutions for industrial, commercial, and municipal customers. As a one-stop power partner, IPS repairs and maintains all OEM generators from 5 kW to 4,000 kW.
IPS Power Systems also provides routine service for generators from other dealers. IPS, through TAW, has been the Florida distributor of KOHLER® Power Systems’ high-quality products since 1986.
IPS sells KOHLER® exclusively, providing installation, commissioning, service, and repair for every type of generator:
IPS is an authorized warranty repair facility for KOHLER®. IPS Power Systems also sells and services automatic transfer switches, generator controls, paralleling switchgear systems, and tanks & enclosures.
IPS Power Systems offers a range of flexible PM plans. IPS’s field service technicians have KOHLER®, EGSA, and OEM certifications, and service all brands and models of emergency standby generators.
We also provide turnkey installation and rigging, with emergency response teams and rental generators configured for your requirements. The IPS North American network gives us the scale and resources to handle any emergency or planned outage project.
We provide complete power system analysis, with recommendations to improve system reliability. Your facility power level requirements may change over time, along with local codes and regulations.
We can help you maintain adequate, reliable standby power and legal compliance.
Trained, certified crews with the tools and resources you need. Service, repair, or replacement for electric motors and generators, rotating equipment, and power distribution.
