The BLADEcontrol® rotor blade monitoring system is a product which continously monitors the condition of the rotor blades to detect early signs of damage and prevent greater problems, thereby significantly extending the useful blade life.
BLADEcontrol® which is certified by the Germanischer Llyod is also known as "the airbag for wind turbines" because it prevents extrem damages and its effects such as complete rotor blade damages.
The ice detector based on BLADEcontrol® is the only system existing on the market, which measures the effect of an ice mass on the natural frequency of the blades themselves.
Through allowing the automatic recovery of the wind turbine, the ice detector is able to prevent unnecessary downtime and maximizes revenues in the winter time.
