CTSAnalytics

Condition monitoring for frequency converters

Why the converter is the place to watch

The frequency converter adapts fluctuating generator output to grid standards and is often the first to signal stress. CTSAnalytics observes 2,000+ converter parameters in real time and translates small drifts in temperatures, currents, voltages, or switching behavior into early, actionable insight. The impact is practical: fewer surprises, steadier output, and safer, better-planned interventions.

Operational impact you can measure

With early detection and evidence-based planning, unplanned stops fall and repair expense declines. Over time, the benefits compound – predictable maintenance windows, fewer site visits (especially offshore), and higher, more stable AEP. The result is a service model that’s proactive by design, not reactive by necessity.

What CTSAnalytics gives you

Data flows from the turbine control into your site server/SCADA. CTSAnalytics provides a monthly Activity Calendar and Alert Calendar for at-a-glance scanning; from any alert, engineers open operational plots to review the signals behind the event. A model-based anomaly detector reduces multi-signal data into readable patterns, so prioritization is fast and defensible. Integration with existing infrastructure keeps adoption straightforward.

Gateway – the data bridge for CTSAnalytics Mounted in the turbine control cabinet, the gateway collects and converts converter signals into structured data for CTSAnalytics. It streams time data, event logs, counter data, and operational parameters to your site server/SCADA for analysis and visualization.

One platform. Many ways to improve performance.

CTSAnalytics supports wind fleets across all environments by standardizing best practices, aligning teams, and making performance insights actionable and objective. Operators and service partners can monitor converter behaviour over time, validate the impact of upgrades and retrofits, and establish new baselines to detect emerging issues early.

With clear benchmarking, data-backed recommendations, and visibility into trends across mixed platforms and regions, CTSAnalytics helps reduce unnecessary site visits, minimize operational risk, and ensure interventions are efficient, targeted, and first-time-right.
