Case Studies
M-HAS was installed at a site near Devon on the 10th of September 2019. Vibration levels on the generator, main bearing and bed-frame were monitored along with the turbines operational parameters. An increase in vibration levels...
M-HAS was installed at a site near Keighley on the 4th of September 2019. Vibration levels on the generator, main bearing and bed-frame were monitored along with the turbines operational parameters. The system detected a fault...
An increase in vibration and noise level on both the frame and main bearing accelerometers indicated a fault in the area of the wind turbine’s hub....
An increase in bedplate and shaft vibration indicated a crack on the wind turbine’s bedplate. The turbine operator was notified by M-HAS as soon as the alarm threshold had been breached. Close monitoring of these...
At a site near Hull a wind turbine was retro-fitted with M-HAS which in addition to accelerometers also monitored oil particulate and condition using Hydac’s MCS1000 measurement...
The owner of this wind turbine was looking to install a low-cost condition monitoring system which provided sufficient information to allow maintenance or repair action to be taken and major failures of key components to be avoided. Based on the owner’s requirements and the type of wind turbine to be monitored Turner Iceni opted to monitor the health of the wind turbine using vibration and in-line oil analysis.
