The
Ampair 600 DC is used worldwide for its reliability in
extreme remote-site conditions. The 24 and 48V
regulators provide a wide range of performance data -
essential for monitoring.
Exceptional
performance in both low and high winds with PowerFurltm
pitch
control technology allowing continued operation in high
winds. Quiet operation due to the rigid blade design
which prevents vibration and noise associated with ‘floppy’
blades. The Ampair’s legendary marine grade
build quality and four decades of continual innovation
ensures the Ampair 600 durability.
The Ampair 600 is the latest micro wind turbine from
Ampair. It has a 1.7m diameter blade optimized
for low and medium speed winds and incorporates the
PowerFurl™ system which slows the
turbine down in high winds, reducing noise and
mounting system loads. It is available in two
versions depending on whether the need is for high
capacity 24 or 48 V battery charging or for 230V
grid connection. It can be used on land or on
larger vessels and is built to full marine grade
specifications.
Battery
charge
The
Ampair 600 24v and 48v version is designed for
charging high capacity 24/48V DC
battery systems and must be installed in
conjunction with the VW-50 regulator which includes
the regulator; the dump load; rectifier;
fuses; and heatsinks.
Grid
connect
The
Ampair 600-230 is designed for connecting to 230V
50Hz grid systems. It is ordinarily connected
on the client's side of the electrical utility
supply meter and is ideally connected into
the consumer unit (or fuse box). Electricity
generated by the wind turbine is then used in
preference to that supplied by the utility. If
more electricity is required by the client then
extra supply comes from the utility, and if more is
generated than is consumed on site then the surplus
is exported to the utility grid. The Ampair 600-230 must
be installed in conjunction with the Ampair
interconnect set which includes a G83 grid tie sine
wave inverter; stop switches; overloads;
power conditioning; and isolation.
Mounting
options
The Ampair 600 system includes a range of mounting
systems for land and marine use. The only marine
mount that we recommend is the stern mount kit
co-developed by Ampair and Scanstrut. On land the
same stern mount can be used and we also offer a
wide range of other
