Getting the most out of windGetting the most out of wind As an experienced partner to the wind industry, we offer optimally coordinated products and systems for the electrotechnical equipment of wind turbines. Your advantage: maximum availability and efficiency, low production and maintenance costs, time savings in engineering and commissioning, and a shortened time to market. This allows you to achieve a quick return on investment and reduce your cost of energy in the long term.
Faster time to marketWith our intelligent software solutions for virtual prototyping and virtual testing, you can develop new wind turbines more cost-effectively and quickly – until they are ready for the market. Practical tools support you in planning and facilitate and accelerate engineering. Commissioning is also faster – thanks to coordinated components and easy handling.
Maximum efficiency Our standardized components and coordinated systems can be optimally combined. This allows you to meet your specification very easily and precisely. We ensure the efficient cooperation of our components in advance through comprehensive system tests.
Maximum availability Our components and systems communicate seamlessly with each other, across all levels. This enables intelligent self-optimisation of the wind turbine and self-protection in extreme weather conditions. In addition, all system components can be continuously monitored and controlled – even remotely – in order to avert damage. Preventive maintenance can thus minimise repair-related downtimes and allow maintenance assignments to be planned in a targeted manner.
Investment security over the entire life cycle Standardised series, high connection compatibility and extensive system tests, as well as the proven industrial quality of all components, ensure a high level of investment security. As the world market leader in automation technology, we can also ensure the highest product and manufacturing quality thanks to our experience and prove it with industry-standard certificates. Should spare parts ever arise: High backward compatibility and long-term, global spare parts availability support rapid replacement and restart.
Our offer SIMATIC Wind Automation automation and turbine control systems including wind-specific software ensure efficient, automated operation of wind turbines
Industrial communication enables the control and monitoring of wind turbines and the coordination of entire wind farms. It ensures that all system components work together safely and reliably, even in harsh environmental conditions. The network components SCALANCE and RUGGEDCOM form the basis for the data networks required for this
SIMATIC WinCC OA is both a state-of-the-art SCADA solution for the optimized operational management of (multiple) wind farms and a central service portal for wind turbines (Multilevel Wind SCADA Center)
Generators for turbines with and without gearboxes ensure maximum energy yield with maximum reliability
The SIPLUS CMS Condition Monitoring System enables condition monitoring of wind turbines and preventive maintenance
The products of the SIPLUS extreme series offer extreme robustness for applications in the harshest environments
Coordinated components for rotor blade adjustment and nacelle tracking enable the implementation of intelligent pitch and yaw systems. The basis for this is formed by SIMATIC automation systems, SIRIUS switching technology and SINAMICS frequency converters
Industrial control technology of the SIRIUS family enables safe switching, protection, starting and monitoring of motors as well as communication connection via IO-Link
The products of the SENTRON family for low-voltage power distribution offer perfectly matched protection, switching, measuring and monitoring devices
The SIVACON 8PS busbar trunking systems ensure optimum energy transport. The reliable connection between the wind turbine and the power grid is made possible by the NXPLUS C Wind and 8DJH 36 medium-voltage switchgear as well as our highly efficient GEAFOL cast resin transformers and liquid-filled distribution transformers
