“The eologix system is uncomplicated and easy to install. The technology is simple but of good quality and does a very good job. The system reacts quickly and very precisely. An additional positive effect was the good project cooperation with eologix the support was very good.“

Ing. Fotios Chitzios l Technical Operation Manager STAWAG Energie GmbH, Germany

“We have chosen the eologix sensor system because it measures directly on the rotor blade and therefore ice detection is faster and more accurate than with other comparable systems.“

Daniel Nagel l Technical Operations Manager GLS Beteiligungs AG

“Technically, it is an exciting product, as eologix is the only supplier that measures directly on the blade surface and can thus determine the icing condition. The more accurate and sensitive the ice detection system is, the higher the optimization potential of the individual plants is.”

Christian Herwig l Project Manager Renewable Energies Mainova AG, Germany

“[…] eologix would have stopped the turbine approximately 2.5 times less than the VBS.” (Vibration-Based Systems)

“[…] the eologix system was most often the first IDS to detect the presence of light icing, it would have been the last to stop the turbine.”

“The eologix system works perfectly and provides the best information about the condition of the blade in case of ice formation. When it comes to which system is reliable, I would definitely fully recommend the eologix system – I would choose time and again the eologix solution.”

“In short: we are very satisfied with eologix.”

Robert Lotter | Managing director Viktor Kaplan Muerz GmbH

Each company has to decide for itself whether to measure based on vibrations or directly on the rotor blade surface. However, it is nice that eologix carries out a precise measurement and also measures the thickness of the ice layer accurately.
