EK100 – How Does It Work?
EnerKíte’s First-of-a-Kind system EK100, an innovative airborne wind energy system, harnesses high-altitude winds to generate electricity. The system benefits from the integration of Andivi sensors, ensuring precise monitoring of environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity, for optimal performance.
The system uses a kite that follows a figure eight flight pattern to pull cables, which drive drums connected to a generator, converting wind energy into electricity efficiently. The EK100 wing features a lightweight carbon fiber structure, ensuring durability and performance even in low-wind conditions. It operates automatically and can be remotely monitored, making it particularly suitable for off-grid locations.
Modbus Outdoor Combination Sensor for Relative Humidity and Temperature
The Temperature Humidity Sensor ANDARFT/R-MD/S measures relative humidity and temperature in outdoor areas, meeting high standards for sensitive locations.
The main advantage of the Modbus Outdoor Combination Sensor for Relative Humidity and Temperature (ANDARFT/R-MD/S) is its long-term stability. This feature ensures consistent, reliable performance over time, reducing maintenance efforts and costs. The sensor’s robust IP65 protection makes it ideal for outdoor use in various weather conditions, offering both durability and accuracy in monitoring environmental conditions.
For EnerKíte, which relies on environmental data to optimize energy systems, having sensors that provide reliable, low-maintenance performance aligns with their need for cost-efficient, durable solutions in the long run. This combination of reliability, efficiency, and minimal maintenance makes the sensor a valuable asset as EnerKíte integrates it into its systems for precise monitoring and control.
Boosting Efficiency with the Modbus Protocol
The Temperature Humidity Sensor ANDARFT/R-MD/S uses the Modbus communication protocol, which allows seamless integration with the EnerKíte system.
When paired with the EnerKíte EK100, the sensor provides continuous temperature and humidity data that helps optimize operations. The Modbus protocol ensures reliable communication between the sensor and the platform, enabling efficient data exchange and system control.
In summary, combining the ANDARFT/R-MD/S sensor with the EnerKíte EK100 enhances system efficiency, performance, and energy management through seamless data integration and remote monitoring.
