Description
The GA-LETU-010B-48V is a versatile wind turbine perfect for a variety of applications. It was originally engineered for industrial data monitoring in extreme environments but has since become a popular choice for recreational and off-grid uses.
Applications
- Marine & Caravans: Provides a continuous trickle charge to batteries, reducing the need for “shore power” and preventing battery damage from discharge.
- Remote Power: Powers data-logging, telemetry, and other low-power electronic systems in off-grid locations where other power sources are unavailable.
- Renewable Energy Systems: Supplements solar PV panels to create a more consistent and reliable off-grid power solution, especially during low sunlight conditions.
- Street Lighting: Can be used to power LED street lights and other public lighting systems.
Features
- Silent Operation: The turbine operates without noise, making it suitable for residential, marine, and caravan use.
- Compact & Lightweight: Weighing only 9kg and with a rotor diameter of 270mm, its small size allows for easy installation in tight spaces.
- Durable & Reliable: Constructed from high-quality anodized aluminum and stainless steel, it has a design life of over 20 years with minimal maintenance. It features only one moving part and sealed bearings.
- Safe Design: The Savonious rotor design is inherently safe and will not cause injury. It automatically limits its RPM, even when running ‘off-load’ without a battery connection.
- Low Wind Performance: The turbine has a low cut-in speed of 5 m/s, using a low-inertia alternator to start generating power in light winds.
- 48V Output: Specifically designed to provide a 48V output, making it ideal for trickle charging batteries or powering low-voltage electronic devices.
