Remote Monitoring and Control Systems

Alternative power generation sources such as solar, hydro and wind energy have emerged to be a reliable and cost effective alternative to conventional energy. This is particularly true in remote areas, where public grid is not available and producing energy OFF GRID is the only possible solution.
These systems provide power to stand alone devices such as wifi station, telemetry, SCADA system, off shore platform, telecom towers and many others.

Monitoring these OFF GRID systems and all their functionalities has become critical in order to guarantee the system up time and to reduce the operational expenditure. This goal requires reliable and efficient remote monitoring and control solutions.
WindKinetic™ Wind Systems remote monitoring system addresses this challenge and provides a comprehensive solution.

The renewable energy remote monitoring and control system allows a detailed and precise information about any off grid system based on renewable energy.

The system will allow a proactive approach to site service and maintenance, helping to determine issues before they rise and turn into system downtime.

Standard System functions:

• Real-time monitoring of several electrical and environmental data
• Historical records on web server
• 8x 20A relay. Programmable based on thresholds to be set on single monitored parameters (for example used to start a diesel genset when battery voltage is too low). Same relay can be activated remotely trough our web server
• Up to 10 alarms can be programmed based on thresholds to be set on single monitored parameters (i.e. for low battery, high temp etc); alarm will be sent by SMS or email
• DIN rail enclosure
• Communication trough RJ45 to site internet connection or via GSM,GPRS transmission
• Web server with 99.9% uptime guaranteed
• Web server account with multiple site with geographical localization
• Fully customizable dashboard and relay/alarm programming
• Smartphone app monitoring.

Standard monitored parameters in real time:

• Wind Speed
• Wind Direction
• Solar Irradiation
• External temperature
• External humidity
• Battery temperature
• Battery voltage
• Wind turbine Voltage
• Wind Turbine amps to battery
• Wind turbine power to battery (calculated)
• Wind turbine RPMs
• Solar Panels voltage
• Solar Panels Amps
• Solar Panel power to battery (calculated)
• Amps to load
• Power to load (calculated)
• Battery remaining autonomy (calculated based on battery voltage, battery bank capacity and lastweek average load)

All the above parameter are monitored in real time and will register an hystorical plot

Standard statistics monitored:

• Average wind production (monthly)
• Average solar production (monthly)
• Average load (monthly)

Standard relay usage:

• Gen set start up
• Fuel cells start up
• Wind turbine emergency park
• Telecom device reboot
• Any programmable.

The system can be customized to meet customer’s project specific needs.
