Key words are open technology, independence, simplicity, flexibility and nearly unlimited possibilities for expansion. Orbital designed various specific modules, focusing onto a standard PLC with integrated Profibus interface for communicating with the applied modules. This controller, an integration of standard components with new developed wind turbine specific control modules, can be installed in any standard wind turbine without an appreciable re-design of the existing hardware concept of the nacelle- and bottom construction. The small size design of the IEC modules also permit retrofit applications. To achieve independence, the Orbital designed high-integrated wind turbine specific control modules can at any time be replaced by commercial standard modules. There is no longer a demand for placing all control units traditionally in the control cabinet, the IEC Profibus opens the possibility to place control at any location where control is suitable, e.g. both in the bottom cabinet and in the nacelle. Traditional multi cabling from bottom to top can be replaced by ProfiBus, a 2-wired RS485 based communication line or on request, fiber optics. This saves cobber and expenses. The wind turbine control algorithms are no longer a secret of the provider. By using the PLC related open programming language now the customer at any time has the freedom to create his own software and adjust or modify the entire control philosophy – without entering a proceeding technical dialogue with the manufacturer of the hardware. To improve the functionality and performance of the wind turbine, easily additional control modules can be integrated into the existing system and implemented into the software.
