Optimise wind turbines, wind farms and wind projects with the only Lidar capable of measuring full turbine shear, veer and wakes.
ZX TM at a glance:
- Remotely measure the wind ahead of wind turbines from 10m to 550m+.
- Accurately and automatically detect complex flow conditions such as wakes.
- Compensate for turbine movement automatically for accurate measurements above ground level, e.g. hub height.
- See a turbine’s true potential with an independent Power Performance Measurement.
- Remove cup anemometer or Nacelle Transfer Funciton uncertainty or calibration issues.
- Application and campaign-focussed User Interface ensuring ease of data handling.
- Standard industry-accepted methodologies and measurements for: Power Curves, Nacelle Transfer Function calibration including Yaw Alignment, and Wake Detection.
- Extensive 3 year service period ensuring the lowest cost of through-life ownership.
- Suitable for installation on all major turbine platforms.
ZX TM features include:
- Lidar Control Unit (LCU) mounted in the nacelle, Lidar Optical Head (LOH) mounted on the Turbine Integration Kit (TIK) which is mounted on to the nacelle roof.
- 10 Horizontal measurement ranges and up to 13 Vertical Slices at each range – the most comprehensive measurement capability of any Lidar, delivering Rotor Equivalent Wind Speed and Slices for IEC Power Curves.
- Extensive 3 year service life as standard.
- High availability with all laser energy focussed at each measurement range, with low susceptibility to turbine blades due to short measurement integration time (50Hz).
- High Lidar directional positional accuracy on turbine essential for any set point changes relative to rotor alignment using unique patented auto-alignment technique.
- “Application mode” software helping you to define Key Performance Indicators, campaign duration and to include turbine parameters, in addition to the initial installation and easy configuration of the Lidar.
Improve the Levelised Cost of Energy of a wind farm with ZX TM by producing more energy for the same cost, reducing operating costs for the same production and increasing project value with more certain wind measurements.
