Application of Magnetostrictive Sensor in Float Pendulum Wave
Working principle
Due to the waves keep on moving, floats are directly transmitted to the hydraulic cylinder. Their moving trajectory is similar to the action of a hydraulic pump. The hydraulic oil driving the motor to be a power generator. In order to optimize the energy production, the position and the speed of the hydraulic cylinder must be measured, the data is used to controlling the closed-loop, optimizing the equipment and improving the efficiency of power generation.
Stop working: While the wind is strong, the Hydraulic cylinder inside with magnetostrictive dispalcement sensor will fold the floats up to protect the power station.
To select a best sensor:
Magnetostrictive dispalcement sensor: In order to have a longer service life under such a harsh environment, Soway magnetostrictive dispalcement sensor use in a special rubber housing,which can endure the effects of the sunlight and the seawater corrosion while maintaining flexibility, and provide 100% protection for the electronic parts.
The main advantage :
• can measure the location and the speed at one time.
• has a reliable performance in harsh environment.
•noncontact measurment with a long service life.
