2020 wind buyers guide Small Wind Certification Council The Small Wind Certification Council (ICC-SWCC), an independent ISO/ IEC 17065 accredited certification body, certifies wind turbines that meet or exceed the requirements of specified standards. Designed to promote consumer confidence and mainstream acceptance of small and medium wind technology, ICC-SWCC certification standardizes North American reporting turbine energy and sound performance. ICC-SWCC certification also helps manufacturers to demonstrate compliance with certification requirements from numerous federal, state, and local incentive programs to qualify for rebates and tax credits. www.smallwindcertification.org WindGuard North America, Inc. WindGuard’s testing laboratory offers power performance measurements according to all established technical stand- ards (for example IEC 61400-12-1). In addition, WindGuard has developed other methods to verify the power perfor- mance of wind turbines, implementing both ground-based and nacelle LiDAR technology. With the experience from hundreds of tests on turbine types from 30 kW to 7.6 MW, they are a reliable partner for verifying warranted power curves as well as prototype testing. WindGuard is committed to providing extensive scientific, technical, and operational services, which are unbiased and manufacturer-independent for onshore and offshore wind projects. www.windguard.com Tools AcraDyne AcraDyne’s Gen IV Critical Bolting Platform is an advanced bolting/tool system. HT Series tools from AcraDyne are electric, high-torque bolting tools that provide accuracy, speed, and safety. The iEC controller/tool system measures traceable, dynamic torque directly at the square drive. The built-in transducer ensures accurate torque values. Combined with AcraDyne’s Dual-Lever HT Nutrunners, the Gen IV platform provides an additional level of safety to protect the tool operator. AcraDyne’s HT tools deliver high speeds in torque ranges 50 – 17,000Nm. The ergonomic, robust design includes five handle configurations. These tools are designed and made in the USA. www.aimco-global.com Atlas Copco Atlas Copco offers products and solutions that increase productivity - the right solutions for all hydraulic torque, electric torque, pneumatic torque, manual torque, and hydraulic tension applications.
