Company Profile

Ammonit

offers high quality measurement equipment for the wind and solar industry. As a wind energy pioneer, we have been playing a leading role in the global wind measurement sector since 1989. Our product portfolio includes powerful data loggers, accurate meteorological sensors, SoDAR and LiDAR devices, as well as reliable communication and power supply systems. Additionally, we developed AmmonitOR, a web platform to monitor measurement campaigns in accordance with the MEASNET guideline.

Our measurement systems are designed to calculate energy yield forecasts, monitor wind and solar power plants as well as to analyse power curves of wind turbines. For 30 years consultants, operators and research institutes in over 100 countries have been relying on our expertise and high quality measurement systems. Our customers benefit from our growing global partner network. Thus we can provide full service packages for successful campaigns in most of the countries of the world.

In order to pool competences in the field of flow measurement and meteorological measurement technology, Ammonit Measurement GmbH and WIND-consult GmbH founded the Ammonit Wind Tunnel GmbH with headquarter in Bargeshagen near Rostock (Germany). Ammonit Wind Tunnel has been accredited by the German accreditation body (DAkkS) as independent calibration laboratory according to DIN EN ISO / IEC 17025. Ammonit Wind Tunnel is member of the MEASNET group. In its own wind tunnel the company calibrates wind speed sensors according to IEC 61400-12-1 and MEASNET for wind energy assessments.

Mission: measuring wind and solar power to the highest standards

The aim of Ammonit is to promote the global use of eco-friendly, renewable energy. For this purpose we develop sophisticated data loggers as well as monitoring software, and design complete measurement systems for wind and solar measurement. Our products and solutions meet the highest quality standards to ensure highest accuracy in the measurement. Top quality has the highest priority for us. Our quality management system is certified according to ISO 9001:2008.

30 Years Ammonit

Wind energy pioneer Ammonit has been founded in autumn of 1989 in Berlin Kreuzberg - just before the fall of the Berlin wall. Since that time Ammonit has become a reliable partner in the field of wind and solar resource assessment, wind farm and solar power plant monitoring as well as climate research. In 2008 Vincent Camier became Managing Director of Ammonit; Wolfgang Martin Borgert became head of the development department. As director production Steffi Dominikowski is responsible for manufacturing data loggers, customized steel cabinet and individual measurement solutions.

In 1989 Ammonit developed the first wind computer, designed to record accurate measurement data for wind energy applications. Right from the beginning Ammonit closely cooperates with well-known research institutes, e.g., Frauenhofer IWES and other wind professionals, e.g., DEWI, Deutsche Windguard and Cube. Thus we early have been able to develop data loggers, which have set technical standards worldwide.

Wide-ranging product portfolio

Since our business formation data loggers have been our core product – meanwhile data logger series Meteo-40 is on the market. Additionally, we developed the online platform AmmonitOR. Launched in 2010, AmmonitOR supports our data logger users to monitor and manage their measurement campaigns online. In order to respond directly to customer requirements, our development engineers work very closely with our teams in the production and sales department.

For many years Ammonit successfully cooperates with well-known manufacturers, e.g., Thies Clima, EKO, AQSystem and ZX Lidar, to offer complete measurement systems for wind and solar measurement. Our product portfolio includes a number of accurate meteorological sensors, SoDAR and LiDAR devices as well as communication and power supply solutions.

Global partner network

The Ammonit partner network is continuously growing. Today our products and solutions have been installed in more than 100 countries. Customers benefit from the regional know-how as well as fast and professional on-site service of our partners, who are for example mast manufacturers and consultants. Their services include consulting, setup of the measurement system and energy yield forecasting as well as maintenance with regard to regional, climatic and technologic circumstances.
