Abstract (en)

[origin: DE102008032625B3] The device has an immersion component (1) comprising a transverse centering device (9) and a gripping device (10). The transverse centering device laterally centers the immersion component relative to a turbine generator unit (2) by supporting at a supporting structure (4). The gripping device comprises movable clamping elements for detachably securing the turbine generator unit. The transverse centering device comprises movable enclosure elements arranged for enclosing a part of the supporting structure. An independent claim is also included for a method for lifting a turbine-generator unit of an underwater power plant from a supporting structure.
