eGate – Smart Condition Monitoring for Wind Power Construction
Building wind turbines requires exceptional precision in managing site conditions — particularly in monitoring the strength development of concrete foundations and, at times, surrounding air quality. eGate offers a comprehensive solution specifically designed for wind power construction, providing real-time visibility into the most critical project phases.
Controlling Concrete Drying and Strength
The size and massiveness of wind turbine foundations impose special requirements for concrete drying and long-term strength:
- Wireless RH-T sensors measure the relative humidity and temperature of the concrete after pouring
- ePredict® drying calculation accurately forecasts the drying schedule, reducing buffer times and ensuring proper drying
- MPa strength calculation in real time indicates when the foundation is ready for the next phase — safely and with full documentation
- Sensors can monitor conditions even months after the pour
