Grid-Tie 600 Vdc Zephyr
Zephyr combines advanced wind turbine technology with Japan's world-renowned manufacturing craftsmanship, to successfully develop the Airdolphin wind turbine — a next-generation, low-mass wind turbine which instantly adapts to changing wind conditions, from slight to stormy. The total weight of the Airdolphin is 17.5 kg (38.5 lbs). Unlike larger turbines, the Airdolphin's low mass allows it to be mounted on existing structures like remote telecommunication towers, transmission line pylons and billboards, as well as near roads, railways and airports. Even factory and urban rooftops can become cost effective locations for producing usable electrical power. The blades of each Airdolphin are created with Zephyr's patented SD blade technology (noise reduction ridges). Their designers were inspired by the feather patterns of owl wings, which allow owls to fly in silence. This technology applies a series of thin ridges to the surface of each blade, creating micro vortices to keep the airflow attached to the airfoil longer than conventional blades, thus reducing decibel count. Southwest Windpower Whisper 100/200/500
The Whisper 100 and 200 from Southwest Windpower are shipped in a 24-volt configuration, but can easily be changed to 12, 36, or 48 volts by the installer. The included controller is adjustable for use with 12-, 24-, 36- and 48-volt battery systems and the voltage can be adjusted for any battery type. The control can be set to stop the blade from spinning when the battery is fully charged, avoiding wear when power is not needed. The control has a "selectable silent mode" setting that allows the user to select any specific period to automatically turn the wind turbine on or off. Whisper 200 is also available with nominal 120V and 230V output.
An optional digital display may be added to the control to display total kilowatt hours, peak amps, and peak and average wind speed. To measure wind speed, the optional wind speed sensor must be ordered. CALL OUR SALES DEPT.

Outback Charge Controller
The FLEXmax family of charge controllers is the latest maximum power point tracking (MPPT) charge controllers from OutBack Power Systems. The innovative FLEXmax MPPT software algorithm is both continuous and active, increasing your photovoltaic array power yield up to 30% compared to non-MPPT controllers.
With active cooling and intelligent thermal management, both FLEXmax charge controllers can operate at their full maximum current rating, 60 amps or 80 amps respectively, in ambient temperatures as high as 104°F (40°C). Both controllers can be used with battery systems from 12 to 60 VDC with PV open-circuit voltage as high as 150 VDC. The controller's set points are fully adjustable to allow use with virtually any battery type, chemistry and charging profile. The OutBack FLEXmax controllers allow you to use a higher output voltage PV array with a lower voltage battery – such as charging a 12 or 24VDC battery with a 48VDC PV array. This reduces wire size and power loss from the PV array to the battery/inverter location and can maximize the performance of your PV system.
The FLEXmax 60 can be used with PV arrays up to 750 watts when charging a 12-volt battery, 1,500 watts when charging at 24 volts, and 3,000 watts when charging at 48 volts.
The FLEXmax 80 can be used with PV arrays up to 1,000 watts when charging a 12-volt battery; 2,000 watts when charging at 24 volts; and 4,000 watts when charging at 48 volts.
Both controllers come standard with a display of PV system performance that is easy to use and understand. The 4-line, 80-character backlit LCD display is also used for programming and monitoring the system's operation. They can be connected to the OutBack MATE series of system controllers and displays to allow monitoring of up to eight controllers from locations up to 300 feet away. The MATE also includes an opto-isolated RS-232 port for connection to a PC for data logging and system monitoring.

Outback Inverter
The sealed, externally fan-cooled OutBack FX is designed to survive harsh environments. The higher powered ventilated VFX version is a better choice in high ambient temperature applications or where generator-powered battery charging is an important part of system battery charging.
Each inverter/charger is a complete power conversion system – DC to AC inverter, battery charger and AC transfer switch. Additional inverter/chargers can be added at any time either in parallel (120VAC), series (120/240VAC), or even three-phase (120Y208 VAC) configurations, allowing the system to be tailored to the specific needs of the application, both at the time of installation and into the future. With the addition of an X-240 auto-transformer, multiple inverter systems can be set up to provide 120/240 VAC split-phase output with the ability to provide full power on either 120VAC leg of the system. Up to 10 inverters can be connected together to provide up to 36 kW of continuous power capacity with the use of the HUB and the MATE controller. The inverters powerful battery charger operates in five stages: BULK (constant current output), ABSORB (constant voltage output), FLOAT (reduced voltage output), SILENT (no charger output) and EQUALIZE (constant voltage regulation overcharging). Charge time in each stage is adjustable to provide control and to maximize the performance of the charger and battery system.
Each OutBack inverter has a programmable, auxiliary relay output connection (AUX) that provides 12VDC output to run 12V cooling or ventilation fans or operate an external relay to perform other functions, such as remote generator starting (two-wire), to disconnect external charging sources (such as PV), or to turn on a diversion load for voltage regulation. Note: The AUX relay is used to power the external cooling fan of the FX sealed inverters, so it is not available for other uses.
The transfer switch is rated for 60 amps. When an external source of AC power (either a generator or the utility grid) is detected at the "AC in" terminal on the inverter, the switch operates to transfer the loads to the external power source, and then activates the battery charger to re-charge the battery bank.
