A SYSTEM FOR PROTECTING A LEADING EDGE ON A WIND TURBINE ROTOR BLADE, A VACUUM SHEET FOR USE IN THE SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR, IN SITU, PROTECTING A PART OF A LEADING EDGE OF A WIND TURBINE ROTOR BLADE
A SYSTEM FOR PROTECTING A LEADING EDGE ON A WIND TURBINE ROTOR BLADE, A VACUUM SHEET FOR USE IN THE SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR, IN SITU, PROTECTING A PART OF A LEADING EDGE OF A WIND TURBINE ROTOR BLADE
The invention relates to a system for protecting a leading edge on a wind turbine rotor blade, a vacuum sheet for use in the system and a method for, in situ, protecting a part of a leading edge of a wind turbine rotor blade. The system comprises a protective cover sheet to be arranged on a part of a leading edge of a wind turbine rotor blade. The protective cover sheet has a pressure-sensitive adhesive material for adhesively bonding the protective coversheet to the part of the rotor blade. The system further comprises a vacuum sheet having a textured bottom surface and a sealing element arranged at a peripheral circumference and suitable for being connected to a vacuum pump and for being arranged to the protective cover sheet in a full covering and overlapping manner where the sealing element engages the surface of the rotor blade. The protective cover sheet is hereby arranged in a sealed chamber between the rotor blade and the vacuum sheet, and the vacuum system creates a vacuum inside the sealed chamber which forces the textured bottom surface against the protective cover sheet, which activated the pressure-sensitive adhesive material.
