Remanufactured heatsinks that reduce cost, cut lead times and keep turbines turning

Stop replacing Enercon inverters (heatsinks) unnecessarily

We remanufacture Enercon inverter assemblies including heatsinks, power modules and associated electronics using engineering-led inspection, rebuild and electrical validation processes. 

Our remanufacturing process includes detailed inspection of IGBT modules, heatsink degradation and associated power electronics to identify thermal fatigue, PCB damage and component-level failures. Assemblies are stripped, cleaned and rebuilt using restored thermal interface materials, conformal coating repair and electrical validation procedures including VCE and leakage current testing, helping operators extend inverter reliability, reduce converter downtime and manage obsolescence across ageing turbine fleets.

Benefits of choosing remanufacture

Cut replacement cost

Reduce the need for full Enercon inverter replacement through component-level remanufacture of heatsinks, IGBT modules and associated power electronics. Engineering-led rebuild and electrical validation processes help extend asset life while lowering operational expenditure.

Avoid scrapping full sets after single failures

Targeted inspection and repair allows failed converter assemblies and degraded heatsinks to be restored rather than discarded. By addressing thermal fatigue, PCB damage and other component-specific issues, operators can recover critical inverter systems and reduce unnecessary waste.

Faster turnaround than new supply

Remanufacture can help reduce downtime compared to sourcing new or obsolete inverter assemblies. Through in-house inspection, rebuild and testing capabilities at our Lochgilphead facility, we support faster return to service and improved electrical availability across ageing turbine fleets.

What we do

We inspect, repair and rebuild Enercon inverter heatsinks at our Lochgilphead facility. Engineering-led remanufacture designed to return units to service, not scrap.

Our process includes assessment of heatsink degradation, thermal fatigue and associated power electronics, alongside cleaning, rebuild and electrical validation procedures. By restoring critical inverter assemblies through component-level remanufacture, we help operators reduce converter downtime, manage obsolescence and extend the operational life of ageing turbine systems.

Our Enercon inverter remanufacture process

Inspect

Identify root cause and assess inverter condition using engineering-led diagnostics, visual inspection and electrical validation processes. Components including heatsinks, IGBT modules and associated power electronics are evaluated for thermal fatigue, degradation and component-level failure.  

                                                                                  

Repair

Address identified defects through targeted repair and restoration processes including heatsink refurbishment, PCB cleaning, conformal coating repair and thermal interface material replacement to support Enercon inverter reliability and lifecycle extension. Power modules, cooling surfaces and associated electronics are repaired and prepared for rebuild.                                                                           

Rebuild

Reassemble inverter assemblies using validated components, controlled rebuild procedures and traceable engineering processes designed to restore operational performance and reduce unnecessary replacement.

Retest

Verify electrical performance through validation and functional testing before return to service, helping operators improve electrical availability, reduce converter downtime and maintain confidence in ageing turbine systems.
