Gas, coal, diesel, biomass and climate protection
In the near future, fossil fuel power plants will continue to provide the electricity generation capacity needed to secure the base load. For this to be acceptable from a climate protection perspective, the environmental impact of dust and gas emissions must be reduced to a minimum. SICK assists operators with a wide range of analysis equipment.

Solar power under pressure
Solar power plants can supply entire regions with environmentally-friendly energy throughout the day. However, operators are only satisfied when the plants are running optimally – that is, with high efficiency, reliable availability and good profitability. SICK provides support with sensor technology along the entire process chain.

Smart services
Intelligent service and maintenance tasks have clear benefits. With the Monitoring Box, power plant operators can, for example, constantly monitor the condition of the measuring devices and sensors used. The associated monitoring apps warn, among other things, of contamination risks so that service can be planned early on.

Keeping the air clean
When exhaust gas is released into the air, statutory pollutant limits must be complied with. The more accurate the measurement, the safer the power plant operator, as the measurement data is forwarded online directly to the authorities. The monitoring systems from SICK have proven themselves over decades.

Generating steam
When generating steam in large combustion plants or even smaller boiler plants, sensors from SICK monitor a large number of measuring points in the plant and its immediate surroundings. Thanks to the option of linking the digital information with I/O-Link, for example, automation is also simple and intelligent.

Trends & news

Inclination sensors set new standards
Precise one- or two-dimensional inclination sensors for cost-sensitive applications are now waiting at the starting line. Thanks to the capacitive MEMS technology, the sensors are also rugged and offer maximum reliability and high measurement certainty throughout the entire measuring range, even under demanding ambient conditions.

SICK supports non-stop work
A mountain of work! Daily business for many industries – managing bulk materials non-stop. And often outside in all types of weather. To overcome these challenges, SICK also offers intelligent solutions in this area. Measurement and sensor technology from SICK monitors, controls and optimizes industrial conveyor systems in a wide range of sectors.

BREF on hold – the BREFSelector is still here
The lawsuit against the European Commission’s Industrial Emissions Directive for large combustion plants has been admitted by the European Courts of Justice. The directive and the corresponding BREF will have to be reviewed the European Commission within one calendar year and will most likely be revised. Until that time, the BREF remains in force. The database compiled by SICK, known as the BREFSelector, helps customers select the right measurement technology in compliance with the regulation.
