Is the SM6000 still supported since Samsung shifted its business focus?
Absolutely. The technology was fully integrated into Hanwha Power Systems. The global support network and spare parts supply remain some of the best in the industry
Through its Inlet Guide Vanes (IGV) and advanced blow-off control, the SM6000 offers a wide turndown range, maintaining high efficiency even at partial loads.
Compared to a new unit, a refurbished SM6000 offers 40% lower CAPEX while maintaining near-original efficiency, typically seeing payback within 12–18 months through energy savings.
