Real-time lightning detection. The weather tool your wind farm shouldn’t be without.

As effective as they are at generating power, your wind turbines are also giant lightning rods. To minimize turbine damage, protect your revenues and keep your crews safe, you need the best lightning detection available.

Whether at the wind farm, or monitoring remotely, MxVision WeatherSentry® Wind Energy Edition is a weather information system specially designed for wind energy operations.

The system’s Lightning Manager® provides real-time alerts when lightning is striking within a radius that you set. You can also get alerts—on-screen, by cell phone and/or email when your operations are threatened by high winds, ice or other severe weather. With advanced notice, get employees to safety, or if needed stop turbines, before dangerous weather arrives.

With the Wind Energy Edition, you’ll have the most reliable weather information available to help you maximize uptime and safety.

Also included in this system:

• Storm tracking tool shows where the severe weather is, where it’s headed over the next 30 minutes and what time it will reach locations in its path
• Archived lightning data for post-storm reporting, analysis and insurance purposes
• PrecipTimer® lets you know when rain, snow or ice will start and how long it will last
