windtest grevenbroich expands its range of FRT measurement services

The new MV-FRT tester is housed in a compact 40-foot ISO container and enables flexible and standard-compliant testing of generation units such as wind turbines, combustion engines, storage systems and photovoltaic inverters. windtest grevenbroich is now one of the few providers that can flexibly and reliably test generation units of various power classes, even over 20 MW.

Grid faults such as undervoltage and overvoltage (UVRT/OVRT), vector jumps and multi-dips can be simulated efficiently – without the need for complex conversions. Thanks to extensive improvements such as doubled switching elements, increased impedance and an optimized architecture, the fourth generation of the mobile test system meets the highest requirements for complex network environments. Tests are carried out in accordance with FGW TR3, IEC 61400-21-1, among others, and phase-related switching, which is so important for manufacturers and simulation, is also possible.

The new MV-FRT tester also combines state-of-the-art technology with comprehensive safety functions: Equipped with protective devices, an emergency stop chain, door monitoring, video monitoring, temperature sensors and a thermal imaging camera, it guarantees maximum safety during testing and ensures that all processes remain traceable and controlled.

The new test system was developed and implemented in close cooperation with the test equipment manufacturer EESYST and Managing Director Rainer Klosse, who has been a reliable partner of windtest grevenbroich for many years. With this expansion, windtest grevenbroich is strengthening its role as an independent measurement service provider and supporting manufacturers, grid operators and project developers in the safe integration of modern generation units into the electricity grids of tomorrow.
