eologix:safe is reliable \u2013 full recommendation<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

\n

When the wind turbine was installed, a further ice detection system was officially required in addition to the power curve based system. A recommendation from another company made it clear that the eologix system, which measures directly on the rotor blade surface, has clear advantages over a nacelle-based system:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • the eologix:safe system offers more reliability<\/li>\n
  • the measurement is performed directly
    \non the rotor blade surface<\/li>\n
  • Accurate measurement – the system is only switched off in the event of safety-relevant icing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

    eologix:safe was the right choice for us \u2013 Clear recommendation<\/h3><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]By law, there is an obligation for the wind turbine on the Ploeckenpass to stop the wind turbine in case of safety-relevant ice accumulation. In the course of the new construction of this plant, a turnkey solution and an eologix:safe ice detection system was purchased. The installation and commissioning by eologix went smoothly – the necessary sensors were already installed on the ground and the mounting of the base station followed as the system was erected.<\/p>\n

    \u201eThe eologix system works perfectly and provides the best information about the condition of the blade in case of ice formation. When it comes to which system is reliable, I would definitely fully recommend the eologix system – I would choose time and again the eologix solution.\u201c<\/strong>, says Mr. Ing. Gerold Katzer, Head of the AAE Power Plant Park & Energy Management\u00a0 and main responsible for the purchase decision.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”24″][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1649682943265{background-color: #f4f4f4 !important;}”][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1672755919912{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

The system is reliable and measures the surface temperature and ice accurately at the appropriate points.<\/p>\n

    The process after the purchase was really very simple. As AAE, we decided on the turnkey system and everything else was handled by the manufacturer and eologix to our complete satisfaction.<\/p>\n
