The wind blows more strongly at higher altitudes. That is why wind turbines have grown ever taller. The blade tips of today’s biggest now reach up a dizzying 260 metres, the height of the Transamerica building in San Francisco. Many dream of capturing stronger winds even higher up than that, but building taller turbine masts and constructing blades able to withstand the terrifying ...
Sea-Lix is excited to announce the arrival of brand new ranges of turbine-driven monitoring platforms. Our new POGMI range is available for pipe-sizes from DN80 to DN200, either flanged or for mounting with saddle-clamp. ...
