Ice Detection System
World first combination of blade surface damage detection and icing events.
The Ping Monitor ice detection option is an upgrade to our standard surface damage solution.
Be alerted when light icing has started and receive 30 minute reporting and notifications of continued icing events.
Ice on turbine blades is a significant issue in some colder climates, causing damage and potentially becoming a safety hazard. This can lead to turbines being shut down for long periods and subject to dangerous ice load, resulting in revenue and energy shortages. We have developed a less costly and more effective software upgrade to our system, that continuously monitors blades to detect icing along with any change or damage, providing additional blade icing detection time compared to traditional methods.
Features
Improved analysis
The Ice Detection System uses an improved acoustic analysis to monitor the sound of wind turbine blades and detect the presence of ice on them, notifying operators through the cloud.
Improve efficiency
Early ice detection allows operators to minimise damage, improve efficiency, safety and increase energy production.
Optimised revenue
The continuous monitoring reduces costs on maintenance and unnecessary inspections, optimising wind turbines operation and revenue.
