Wind Turbine Generator Monitoring

Background

Wind Turbine Generator monitoring is becoming more and more popular. Most wind turbines are deployed in a broad and remote areas for safety and environmental consideration. So, a remote monitoring solution is critically necessary.

 

Project Technical Highlights

  • Multiple interfaces like RS232, RS485, and Ethernet Ports to ensure that all the components and controllers can be connected to the same SCADA System.
  • 4G LTE network makes sure all the data transmission can be continuous.
  • Built-in SMS alerts can warn engineers when issues happen, such as DIDO triggers, etc.
  • High EMC Level requirements in a harsh environment. For example, high temperatures such as 60 degrees C when the system operates.

 

Solution

NavigateWorx NR500-P4G provides abundant interfaces for connecting the ultrasonic wind sensors, hub controller, and high voltage transformer. The system controllers are connected to a PLC and controlled by the SCADA Software in the Remote Monitoring Center via a secure tunnel. So the PLC can be visited and programmed remotely. This will save a lot on the labor cost. NR500-P4G also provides customers with a secure and trustable network for the Wind Turbine Monitoring System.
