Project Introduction
Location: China
Project Name: Windfarm SCADA System in China
Products Deployed: IES-2042FX-SS
Project Requirement
- Low power consumption
- Redundant power protection
- Rugged industrial design
- Resilience to temperature variations
ORing deployed 54 IES-2042FX-SS Ethernet switches across four redundant rings protected by O-Ring technology. Rings A and B each connected 13 turbines and one control unit, while Rings C and D each connected 12 turbines and one control unit. This arrangement linked all 50 turbines to the control center.
Each turbine used one IES-2042FX-SS switch, a Beckhoff PLC for data collection, and a Beckhoff industrial PC for monitoring. Four additional switches at the control center connected the four rings. Two IBM servers stored the monitoring data: one handled Rings A and B, while the other handled Rings C and D.
