Ampair 48Volt 600Watt Marine Wind Turbine - Ampair 600-24

 

The Ampair 600 is the latest micro wind turbine from Ampair. Built on the same platform as the renowned Ampair 100 and the newer Ampair 300 it has a 1.7m diameter blade optimised for low and medium speed winds. It incorporates the PowerFurl™ system first seen in the Ampair 300 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 like all Ampair products, is built to full marine grade specifications.

 

Note: An external rectifier/regulator is required and is not included with this item

 

Battery charge

 

The Ampair 600-24/48 is designed for charging high capacity 24/48V DC battery systems and must be installed in conjunction with the 600-TS regulator which includes the regulator; the dump load; rectifier; fuses; and heat sinks. Loads can be either 24 or 48 V DC equipment or a stand-alone sine wave inverter can be used to power 115V or 230V AC equipment.

 

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 mountings:

 

  • Steel unguyed masts of 8m and 10m in height with options for hinged or unhinged access; and for flange mounted or rooted foundations.
  • Wooden unguyed 10m and 13m telegraph poles and conversion kits.
  • Guyed steel masts from 12m.
  • Non penetrating flat roof mounts of 5m height.
  • Various mounts suitable for fixing on to suitable vertical structures.
