μ-Sen have signed a framework agreement with Nordex AG - Remote diagnosis of Wind Turbines in Europe creates higher yield and security

Rudolstadt - μ-Sen has signed a contract with Nordex AG, Norderstedt for remote diagnosis of Wind Turbines in France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece and Turkey.

The remote service of the μ-Sen currently monitors more than 600 Wind Turbines with outputs ranging from 250 kW to 5 MW and from a variety of manufacturers. With the signing of the agreement the number of Wind Turbines monitored by µ-Sen is expected to exceed the threshold of 1000 in 2009.

"We want to strengthen our established position in the supervision of plant equipment using Condition Monitoring systems with the expansion in the business sector - remote service", said Michael Gräf, Head of the CM Service Department at μ-Sen.

In addition, the company has plans for a representative’s office in France in 2009. "This step will also show our customers in other European countries that we are keen to have a local presence", said Holger Fritsch, Approved Signatory at μ-Sen, to reinforce the significance of this undertaking.

"The challenges in Europe are demanding, and vary greatly from country to country. But with a proven Condition Monitoring system and an integrated service concept, we support manufacturers as well as operators on-site", added Dr. Steffen Biehl, Director of μ-Sen.


About the μ-Sen GmbH:
