Increasing the efficiency of wind turbines with Ultrasonic 2D Compact Plus

Göttingen, 11. December 2023, Adolf Thies GmbH & Co. KG - Thies CLIMA presents the Ultrasonic 2D Compact Plus, an advanced anemometer that provides crucial data for optimizing wind turbines. The anemometer's point-to-point measurement method enables precise measurements of horizontal wind speed, wind direction, acoustic-virtual temperature and optional air pressure. In addition, the Ultrasonic Compact 2D Plus optimizes pitch and yaw control to further improve wind turbine performance and efficiency.

The advanced technology of the Ultrasonic 2D Compact Plus includes:

• Improved ice resistance: the anemometer ensures reliability even in icy conditions and meets the MIL-STD 810G standard.

• Smart ultrasonic level: Trouble-free operation thanks to adaptive ultrasound during strong thunderstorms, continuous signal performance and dynamic plausibility value adjustment during turbulence.

• Interface: Seamless connectivity and control through PROFINET for efficient communication with other systems. The integrated web server and Ethernet TCP/IP enable easy integration, access and remote monitoring and management via a web interface. Remote troubleshooting and upgrades are also possible via REST API.

• Advanced self-diagnostics: Predictive maintenance of the anemometer optimizes performance and minimizes downtime.

• Improved EMC compatibility

Thies CLIMA sets a new level of efficiency for wind turbines with the Ultrasonic 2D Compact Plus. The innovative technology enables precise control and monitoring to maximize turbine performance.
