Alternative Energy Monitoring for the Renewable Energy Industry

In solar energy applications, performance monitoring for energy output, temperature, solar irradiance, and other parameters helps identify issues and improve overall system efficiency. Monitoring is vital in wind turbine systems to check for excessive vibration, which could point to potential mechanical issues. Other renewable energy industrial applications also benefit from real-time condition monitoring.

KEYENCE provides a line of data acquisition system (DAQ) hardware for solar applications, turbine systems, and other alternative energy monitoring needs.

Why Choose Our Renewable Energy Tester DAQ?

The KEYENCE line of renewable energy data loggers offers versatile data acquisition solutions in terms of what measurement units and operating conditions they can handle.

Our data acquisition products provide multi-channel and multi-input monitoring and measurements. The multi-channel capability enables our renewable energy data loggers to record data from separate and multiple sensors or data sources simultaneously.

Unlike other alternative energy monitoring device systems with limited channel inputs, KEYENCE solutions offer simultaneous measurement through separate sensors, each connected to a different channel. The KEYENCE NR-X Series, for example, can perform multi-channel measurements using up to 576 channels.

KEYENCE DAQ systems, like alternative energy DAQ monitors, can meet the demands of sensors that concurrently send multiple inputs or signals, thanks to the multi-input capability. This makes for synchronized measurement, display, and analysis of multiple parameters like temperature, voltage, and current for applications where monitoring more than one measurement unit is required.

Our DAQ designs are made with various monitoring/inspection sites in mind. Instead of the traditional complicated hardware designs, the outline of renewable energy data loggers come in compact designs without sacrificing performance.

Key Features of Our DAQ Systems

Our renewable energy monitor DAQ comes equipped with functions and technologies suitable for solar panels, wind turbines and d other renewable energy applications.

  • High-Speed Monitoring: Our DAQ monitoring solutions ensure that data from every channel is captured, processed, and ready for quick analysis.
  • Low Latency: Minimal delay between data input and output makes KEYENCE DAQ solutions fast and responsive. Operators and managers in monitoring units can make timely decisions.
  • Integrated Signal Conditioning: Our DAQ hardware supports analog-based signals. This built-in signal processing helps take and turn raw analog measurement data from sensors into a digital format needed for data analysis.

Integrations with DAQ Monitors

The KEYENCE NR-500 Series multi-input data logger is designed to connect directly to a PC. Our proprietary software lets computer displays connect to our renewable energy data loggers via display ports, allowing operators to monitor and analyze output data visually.

Applications of DAQ in Renewable Energy

KEYENCE renewable energy DAQ monitor solutions deliver exceptional performance in different alternative energy monitoring situations. While conventional DAQ models are notoriously difficult to install and use because of their design, KEYENCE DAQ systems provide smooth and seamless integration.

The NR-X Series multi-input DAQ has a compact enclosure and a reduced wiring system. Both design features mean the NR-X Series can easily be moved around and deployed without complicated wiring work. It can be used to deliver high-level performance in on-site and off-site solar panel energy output and performance needs or in wind turbine fault detection predictive maintenance applications or for condition based monitoring.
