AIQ Detect for Wind Turbines

Maximum Availability and Safety for Your Wind Turbines

In modern wind turbines, the reliability of the drive systems is crucial. Our Flender wind couplings are equipped with an innovative torque limiter that ensures the system remains protected, even under extreme conditions. However, to guarantee optimal performance, continuous monitoring of the drivetrain is essential.

Predictive Monitoring with AIQ Detect

AIQ Detect for Torque Limiters is an intelligent monitoring system specifically designed for wind turbines. It accurately measures the angle that the torque limiter slips, ensuring you are always informed about the condition of your coupling. With a configurable maximum allowed slip angle, AIQ Detect continuously monitors and alerts you when the critical value is reached.

Your Benefits at a Glance

Detection of Overload Events:
The system detects and logs overload events, such as Low Voltage Ride Through (LVRT), allowing you to respond immediately and minimize damage.

Event Analysis:
The recording of slip angles and speeds enables detailed analysis of events after they occur, helping to quickly identify the cause of malfunctions.

Continuous Monitoring:
Ongoing monitoring of the slip angle, rotational speed, and slip ensures a high level of operational safety.

Planned Maintenance:
AIQ Detect tracks the total slip angle, allowing you to plan maintenance precisely and avoid costly, unexpected downtime.

Cost-Effective and Widely Applicable:
With its affordable solution, monitoring is no longer limited to prototype turbines but can be implemented across entire wind farms—especially valuable in regions with low grid stability.

How Does AIQ Detect for Torque limiter Work?

AIQ Detect uses highly sensitive sensors to continuously measure the slip angle of the coupling. If the allowed slip angle is exceeded, an alarm is automatically triggered, enabling immediate action. The collected data on slip angles and rotational speeds is stored for later analysis, allowing you to assess the condition of your equipment at any time.
