SCAIME has become one of the world leaders in the field of
measurement, with its technological mastery and powerful
products. The company offers now a solution of fibre optic
measuring systems with strain gauges, temperature sensors
and optoelectronic data acquisition units developed from
Bragg grating technology.
These fibre optic sensors have a set of features that open up new
horizons, they are completely insensitive to electromagnetic
interference, lightning in particular. They are intrinsically very
robust with a high fatigue resistance and can be used in severe
climate conditions (humidity, salt, cold, heat). The wiring is
reduced as up to twelve gauges can be placed in series on a
single optical line with no limit to length.
The system offered by SCAIME measures the stresses on the
blades as well as on the mast and the foundations and offers
numerous analysis options. The calculation models can be
parametrised according to the characteristics of the structure
to be monitored and had been designed in cooperation with
turbine manufacturers in order to adapted the model to the
different types of turbine. Our solution can also been installed
in areas where there is a risk of ice formation. And finally,
thanks to its properties, this technology enables simple and
easy compensation of any thermal drift, thus avoiding the need
for any corrections.
