Achieving this goal doesn't just require a technically innovative and resilient invention. The system also needs to successfully pass testing at an official type test centre and ensure that the operator's wind energy investment is well-protected. This is why Deutsche Windtechnik decided from the very beginning to divide the complex requirements of an ADLS into three areas of expertise:
- Airspace monitoring and aircraft detection
- Transmission, reception and processing of ADLS signals
- Infrared and night-time marking combined with intelligent communication and data storage
In cooperation with f.u.n.k.e. Avionics GmbH, we have developed a transponder-based ADLS solution that combines the three areas of expertise described above into one comprehensive system. Alternatively, it can also selectively perform the individual tasks of airspace monitoring, controlling existing interfaces at the wind farm or using existing third-party systems (ADLS light).
What synergies can we leverage to optimise your ADLS costs?
As a rule of thumb, Deutsche Windtechnik's ADLS can be installed on any type of wind turbine. Thanks to its modular design, it can be installed in connection with any turbine technology, and this enables synergies beyond the operator's own wind farm.
Even if retrofitting an ADLS is basically an additional financial burden for the wind farm from a cost perspective, those costs can be significantly reduced through synergies and customised solutions. In order to make the best use of this potential, we work closely together with you as the operator or operations manager to develop a comprehensive, cost-optimised ADLS concept. In addition to the technical implementation of the ADLS, the concept also covers approval-related aspects, and this ensures a quick and smooth approval process.
We are on our way – you too?
Deutsche Windtechnik is the single point of contact for the operator during the implementation of the ADLS. The overall implementation process is actually not a trivial matter. It is better if one competent partner is responsible for many area so that there are no unpleasant surprises during implementation and installation on site. Our customer management takes responsibility for the entire contract term. Your system is continuously monitored and cared for from our control centre. If any fault occurs, our 107 service stations in Germany ensure fast response times and professional processing. We are well-positioned to carry out ADLS retrofits and are already in the process of planning many wind farms.
