The IceTroll sensor is designed for:
The IceTroll is a patented solution developed by Kjeller Vindteknikk.
The IceTroll sensor is a device used to measure ice accumulation for various purposes. It can be used for realtime monitoring of ice buildup, e.g. within wind farms, bridge towers, power lines, telecommunication masts etc. It can also be used to monitor ice accumulation for improved operation of de-icing system as well as assessing risks related to ice throw and ice fall from turbine blades.
IceTroll is designed according to the ISO:12494 specification “Atmospheric icing of structures” and the upcoming Eurocode part on atmospheric icing (EN 1991-1-9: “Actions due to atmospheric icing”). The sensor is one-of-a-kind on the market equipped with forced rotation ensuring cylindrical ice deposit. It can measure ice loads from 0-100 kg/m on a standard cylinder. The IceTroll is patented by Kjeller Vindteknikk.
