Windcon 3.0 Features CAN-bus Interconnectivity

Windcon 3.0 features CAN-bus interconnectivity
A SKF UK product story Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Mar 30, 2009SKF has launched Windcon 3.0, the third-generation version of its wind turbine condition monitoring system.

SKF Windcon 3.0 is designed to enable wind farms to extend turbine maintenance intervals, manage resources more effectively, and avoid downtime.

The new Windcon system features CAN-bus interconnectivity to a number of systems typically found in modern wind turbines, such as centralised lubrication, blade monitoring, and gearbox oil condition systems.

These elements can be remotely monitored at any maintenance centre with internet access, using SKF Webcon software.

Using vibration sensors mounted on a turbine's main shaft bearings, drive train gearbox, and generator, SKF Windcon 3.0 collects, analyses, and compiles a range of operating data that can be configured to suit a wind farm's specific requirements.

The collected data enables root cause failure analysis to eliminate recurring failures and keep costs down.

A brochure is available to accompany the solution, which explains the functionality of the Windcon 3.0 system in detail and includes information on SKF's Windlub automatic lubrication solution.

Additionally, SKF has launched an engineering consultancy service for wind farms, which helps ensure new turbines are able to deliver optimum productivity and reliability, and provides support with troubleshooting a range of design-related problems.
