Reliability & Safety

SAFETY

  • Base Level: Regenerative braking slows the turbine rotor down while still harvesting energy.
  • Second Level: Electronic control system activates mechanical brake.
  • Third Level: Quad pneumatic, fail-safe mechanical brakes deploy, bringing the turbine to rest in as little as 10 seconds.

DATA INPUT &
MANAGEMENT

  • Integrated microprocessor with multiple sensor inputs: wind speed, power, voltages, currents and phase, rpm, vibration and temperature alerts.
  • LCD display in control box. Can output to local PC or be monitored remotely via the internet.
  • Remote Monitoring: Allows remote monitoring of the wind turbine in order for Ryse to ensure the turbine is operating at its peak performance.

CONSTRUCTION &
MAINTENANCE

  • Limited plant requirement for installation.
  • Majority of major components at ground level, simplifying installation, operation and maintenance.
  • Environmentally friendly screw pile foundation instead of a concrete foundation.
  • Screw pile foundation offeres quick relocation and re-deployment.
  • Ryse service contract available.
