Icing Measurements

 

IceEyes – Heated Cameras For Harsh Environments

The IceEye heated camera system is used for complete surveillance and monitoring in harsh environments. The versitile two camera system can be used for an array of appli-cations including but not limited to: ice detection on power lines, validation of measu-rements and as live web cameras for on-demand image capturing. The heated camera system is capable of taking high resolution pictures in remote places during extreme weather conditions. The two cameras provide the possibility for multiple views with different lenses.

 

LoadTroll – Tension Measuring Tool with Wireless Communication

The LoadTroll is a contained load measurement device used to remotely measure tension in a line. The system consists of tension recorders, an internal datalogger, wireless transmitters, long-life battery supply and a ground station unit. It can be used for load monitoring on power lines, bridges and other structures sensitive to high loads. The Loadtroll is easy to install and has battery life of ten years. The communication system provides data to a server in near real-time to provide the client with critical data on demand.

IceTroll – Ice Density Measurement Tool

The IceTroll icing sensor is a device used to measure ice accumulation for various purposes. It can be used for load monitoring on power lines, bridges and other structures sensitive to ice loads. It can also be used to measure ice accumulation on wind turbines, to improve the accuracy of the de-icing system and to provide valuable information regarding the risk for ice throw.

IceTroll is designed according to the ISO:12494 specification “Atmospheric icing of structures”. It can measure icing loads from 0-100 kg/m on a standard cylinder. The IceTroll is patented by Kjeller Vindteknikk.
