Wind power installations are said to be ideal candidates for the ACT20C. Wind farms are often situated in remote locations on land and at sea, so on-site maintenance isn’t always possible. The company says with the transducer, it is possible to implement more effective monitoring and observation from a distance contributing to a reduction in equipment ‘wear and tear’.
Configuration takes place through the ACT20C gateway with users gaining a complete overview of all process parameters via Ethernet. The gateway is fully operational at a wide range of temperatures opening up a world of opportunity.
