Commonly used fiber optic interfaces for wind turbine equipment

Home / Commonly used fiber optic interfaces for wind turbine equipment

The main current applications of industrial fiber optic components in wind turbine systems include: ● Power electronic gate drivers for rectifiers and inverters ● Control and communication boards ● Turbine control units ● Condition monitoring systems ● Wind farm networking. VarioConnect splice boxes combine proven technology with the specific requirements of the wind power industry - for reliable. Fibre optic rotary joints are replacing electrical slip rings, promising to eliminate one of wind power's most persistent maintenance nightmares. The global wind industry is fiercely battling reliability issues to keep wind turbines turning. Fiber optics (FO) technology is probably best known for use in high-speed, high-bandwidth telecommunication applications.

Fiber Optics for Wind Turbines

The characteristics and reliability benefits of FO components—receivers, transmitters, transceivers and cable—are applicable in wind farms and wind turbines, as well as overall wind farm and wind park
