AIR-X The latest evolution in small wind turbines. The AIR-X builds upon what made AIR the world's #1 selling small wind turbine with new technology previously found only in today's state-of-the-art mega-watt-class wind turbines. IF YOU LIVE NEAR THE OCEAN YOU MAY WANT THE AirX MARINE ► The AirX Land usually ships within 1-2 days and customer can expect within 7 -14 days
NEW 48 vdc AirX LAND UNIT ABOVE ▲▲ All of these features are primarily found within the
body of the turbine. The new microprocessor based speed control results in
increased performance, improved battery charging capability and the reduction of
“flutter” noise from the machine. The controller allows for peak-power tracking
of the wind by optimizing the alternator's output on all points of the cubic
curve and then efficiently delivers the energy to the battery. The turbine’s
smart controller allows it to actually control blade rotation speed thus
eliminating the buzzing noise commonly found with the AIR 403 and 303 in high
winds. Furthermore, a new series of carbon-reinforced blades with a modified
pitch angle further increases
The Benefit: Quieter and neighbor friendly operation. Improved battery charging: Previous AIR designs required 300-400 amp hour battery banks so the trickle charge of the wind turbine could be adequately absorbed. The AIR-X’s charge controller periodically stops charging, reads the battery voltage, compares it to the voltage setting and if the battery is charged, it completely shuts off all current going to the battery. This function is performed within a few milliseconds. The closer the battery is to reaching its full state of charge, the more often the AIR-X’s circuit repeats this action. This means any size battery bank from 25 to 25,000 amp hours or higher can be charged safely. When the battery has reached its charged state, the AIR-X will slow to an almost complete stop. Only when the battery has dropped below its voltage set point will it startup and resume charging. The Benefit: Extended battery life, no overcharging. Lower stress design: AIR-X limits power on the input side of the electronics by controlling the torque from the blades. The power no longer has to be dissipated by the electronics resulting in lower stress on the circuit, bearings and other materials. Furthermore, stress on wind turbines occurs primarily in high winds. Under these conditions, the electronic stall design reduces the blade speed to 600 rpm, thereby significantly reducing turbine and tower loading while still producing power. The Benefit: Greater confidence in turbine operation in high wind conditions without manually operating the stop switch. Note: A manual stop switch control is an available option for the AIR-X. Design changes are primarily found within the body of the
turbine:New microprocessor-based controller. New "wave washer" combined with
looser bearing-to-body tolerances are incorporated into the face bearing set.
This results in lower compression on the bearing/race, with quieter running and
lower startup speed. It also lowers stress on the bearings and shaft when
subject to twisting forces during normal operation. New series of carbon
reinforced blades. More robust tower clamp and yaw assembly for stronger and
more secure tower mounting.
