Fiber optic assemblies for wind turbine monitoring
SEDI-ATI has developed built-in fiber optic sensors consisting in a ruggedized dielectric multi-fiber optic cable assembly. It is aimed to be placed directly inside the wind tower to offer on-line and real-time monitoring of the performance of wind turbines.
Majorconstraints
- High levels of electromagnetic interference, especially during storms and when lightning strikes,
- Widely fluctuating temperatures from -34°C to +60°C,
- Periodic wind and ice loads,
- Power fluctuations,
- Moisture,
- High vibrations,
- Small bending radius,
- Long fiber lengths.
Thechallenge
Offer vertical cabling in wind turbine towers for control and communication boards, turbine control units, condition monitoring systems and wind farm networking applications.
