The “OF WIND” system measures real-time deformation of the blades, mast, nacelles, torsion and stress of the rotor shaft, and other structural elements.

SYSTEM POSITIONING

• On the blades;
• Along pylons;
• In the nacelles;
• On the rotor axis;
• On the internal elements of the wind turbine.

PROPERTIES

• Monitoring of deformations, vibrations and temperature of the elements of the structure;
• Verification of blade settling;
• Tensional and torsional measurements on the rotor and its axis;
• No obstacles during routine maintenance of the wind turbine.

NTSG has developed a mathematical model for the interpretation of the measurements made by the “OF Wing” system and the calculation of engineering quantities derived from them. The model is implemented in the proprietary software “Edgegateway” which acquires the above measurements in real time, uses them to derive other engineering quantities described in the Properties section and manages alarm systems for users.

CABLES

The “OF CABLE” system measures the deformation of a cable and monitors the behaviour of the substructures connected to the cable: pylons, towers, anchoring and support elements. The main application is related to electrical distribution for cables such as medium and high power cables, guard ropes, undersea cables, etc.

SYSTEM POSITIONING

• Inside the cable;
• Along the cable.

PROPERTIES

• Monitoring of cable deformation and tension;
• Monitoring of cable temperature;
• Identification of the presence, position and extent of piles of ice, snow or other elements that may deform the cable;
• Monitoring of deformations of the substructures supporting the cable;
• Monitoring of deformations and temperature of cable anchoring elements.
