FAG WiPro s - Protection for Wind Turbines

Compact size, extended functionality, expert analysis and assessment of measurement results.

The FAG Wind Turbine Protection s (FAG WiPro s) ensures cost-effective online monitoring of whole wind farms - especially offshore wind turbines. The FAG WiPro s detects potential damage to machines early and reliably, thus helping to avoid unplanned shutdowns and costly secondary damage.

Thanks to its small size,it fits easily into small spaces, for example in the nacelle. The device can now be used in environmental temperatures ranging from -20 °C to +70 °C, i.e. it is suitable even for rough environments. The automatic notification function via TCP/IP, WiFi (optional), fixed line modem, radio modem or satellite modem permits efficient monitoring from anywhere in the world.

The FAG WiPro s offers the right monitoring solution for every wind farm. In combination with customized service concepts for operators of wind turbines, we offer expert analysis and assessment of the measurement results.

The certification by Germanischer Lloyd confirms the long-standing expertise of F’IS in the development of condition monitoring systems. At the same time the insurers certify the excellent qualifications of the service employees working in this area, whose knowhow in damage analysis is not only restricted to the wind energy sector, but also covers a variety of other market segments. >> Download certification

 

Applications for the FAG WiPro s:
  • Main bearings
  • Gear boxes
  • Couplings
  • Generators
  • Tower vibration

Advantages offered by the FAG WiPro s


  • Small enough to be installed in any nacelle
    The device is so small - 260 mm wide, 150 mm high and 90 mm deep – that it can be installed even in small spaces, for example in the nacelle.
  • Easy integration into wind turbine
    Thanks to TCP / IP, serial communication (WiFi, optional) and compatibility with existing firmware and software, the FAG WiPro s can be integrated into the turbine easily.
  • Flexible and easy installation in the field
    The FAG WiPro s features a standardized connection technology which permits easy installation without additional expensive cables and connectors. Thanks to its standard M12 connectors and isolation amplifiers (separate modules), the device can be installed easily and without any problems.
  • Greater operational reliability thanks to failure protection
    The FAG WiPro s features improved overvoltage protection for current, additional signals, communication and sensor defect detection, which increases its’ operational reliability.
  • Extended condition monitoring functions
    With eight measuring channels, combined with 2 additional channels (including one input that can be used as a rotor speed input), the device can monitor several measuring points at the same time and thus detect any damage at an early stage.
  • Suitable for use in offshore wind farms
    The extended operating temperature range (for environmental temperatures from -20 0C to +70 0C) and protection class IP 67 make the FAG WiPro s suitable for rough environments and, therefore, ideal for use in offshore wind farms.
