OPC Server for IEC 61400-25 – OPC UA Server for IEC 61400-25
What exactly is IEC 61400-25 OPC Server?
IEC 61400-25 OPC Server and IEC 61400-25 OPC UA Server are software applications that enable communication between IEC 61400-25-compliant industrial automation systems and wind turbines.
How does it work?
IEC 61400-25 is a standard for the design, testing, and operation of wind turbines. It was created by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and is utilized extensively in the wind energy industry. The OPC Server works as a conduit between the wind turbine and the automation system, enabling real-time data exchange. OPC UA (Unified Architecture) is the most recent version of OPC, which provides a more secure and adaptable method of intersystem communication.
The IEC 61400-25 OPC Server and IEC 61400-25 OPC UA Server connect to the wind turbine via a protocol, such as Modbus or Profibus, and expose the data to the automation system via OPC or OPC UA. This grants the automation system access to information like turbine status, performance data, and warnings.
What issues does it solve?
By utilizing OPC or OPC UA, the IEC 61400-25 OPC Server and IEC 61400-25 OPC UA Server are able to address a number of challenges that arise when attempting to connect disparate systems. These consist of:
Lack of system uniformity can make connecting them difficult or impossible. Difficulties in gaining access to real-time data can cause delays and inefficiency in the automation process. The systems’ lack of protection makes them susceptible to cyber-attacks.
OPC and OPC UA provide a common language for systems to communicate, enabling the secure and real-time exchange of data. This enhances the automation process’s efficacy and safety.
IEC 61400-25 OPC Server and IEC 61400-25 OPC UA Server is, in short, software that enables the communication between IEC 61400-25-compliant wind turbines and Automation systems. They employ OPC and OPC UA to deliver secure, real-time data transfer between disparate systems via OPC and OPC UA. It solves the concerns of Industrial Automation standards, real-time data access, and security.
Use Cases
Real-time monitoring and control of wind turbine performance The IEC 61400-25 OPC Server and IEC 61400-25 OPC UA Server can be used to monitor and control the performance of IEC 61400-25-compliant wind turbines. This enables operators to immediately detect and resolve any issues that develop, hence increasing overall efficiency and decreasing downtime.
Wind turbines can be integrated with SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems using the IEC 61400-25 OPC Server and IEC 61400-25 OPC UA Server. This improves total visibility and control by enabling operators to monitor and control several wind turbines from a central place.
The IEC 61400-25 OPC Server and IEC 61400-25 OPC UA Server can be utilized to collect performance data from wind turbines and feed it into predictive maintenance systems. This enables operators to spot potential faults prior to their occurrence, saving downtime and extending the wind turbine’s lifespan.
