Clean energy and vibration monitoring technology: Normandy Control Group's commitment
The importance of renewable energies
On World Clean Energy Day, as the energy transition becomes a global priority, renewable energies play a central role in reducing carbon footprints. Among them, hydropower stands out as a reliable and sustainable source, at the forefront of clean energy production.
In this context, hydraulic infrastructures such as dams play a decisive role. However, to guarantee their efficiency and safety, it is essential to have advanced technologies capable of monitoring, protecting and optimizing their performance.
Normandy Control Group's expertise
Normandy Control Group is proud to make its contribution to this booming sector. As a specialist in speed control and protection for rotating thermal machines, we offer state-of-the-art equipment to ensure plant reliability.
Our solutions include Meggitt vibration monitoring equipment, such as :
- The RPV rack, an advanced system for accurate, centralized monitoring of vibration parameters.
- SE120 sensors, designed to accurately detect and measure critical vibrations in order to anticipate potential failures.
These technologies have already been implemented in key infrastructures, notably for the equipment of hydraulic turbines in dams in France.
Why vibration monitoring is essential
Hydraulic turbines are at the heart of hydraulic power generation systems. Their continuous, intensive operation can generate considerable mechanical stress. Effective vibration monitoring enables :
- Early detection of anomalies, avoiding costly breakdowns and service interruptions.
- Optimize performance, by adjusting parameters to improve equipment efficiency.
- Extend plant life, reducing long-term maintenance costs.
A commitment to the future
By actively participating in the development of innovative technical solutions, Normandy Control Group confirms its commitment to a sustainable future. Renewable energies, and in particular hydropower, are at the heart of our priorities to contribute to a successful energy transition.
We remain committed to supporting our customers by offering reliable, high-performance solutions that meet today’s ecological challenges.
