Leading Edge Wind Turbine LE-450 Compact 450W 12V / 24V / 48V

Leading Edge Wind Turbine LE-450 Compact 450W 12V / 24V / 48V

De Leading Edge Wind Turbine LE-450 is de meest krachtige compacte windturbine met een 1m rotordiameter en ontworpen om zinvolle vermogensniveaus leveren tegen alledaagse windsnelheden van 5-8m / s (11-18mph) terwijl stoer en robuust genoeg om storm te weerstaan winden. De Leading Edge LE-450 windturbine is een rustige, krachtige en lichtgewicht 450W windturbine voor opladen van de batterij en het net gekoppelde applicaties. Volledig geoptimaliseerd voor mariene omstandigheden, de LE-450 is ideaal voor het aanvullen van de voeding aan boord van een zeilboot of een jacht en leveren energie als zonne-PV-panelen zijn niet in staat om effectief te opereren, zoals tijdens de winter of 's nachts.  Vervaardigd in het Groot-Brittannië tot een hoge standaard, de LE-450 windturbine is zeer eenvoudig te integreren met zonnepanelen op kleine schaal maken off-grid systemen voor hernieuwbare energie voor het aandrijven van beveiliging, telecommunicatie, verlichting, bewegwijzering, telemetrie en off-shore toepassingen. Verkrijgbaar in 12V, 24V en 48V voor het opladen van de batterij toepassingen de LE-450 windturbine kan ook het net worden aangesloten.

Krachtig in iedere dag wind

De LE-450 genereert hetzelfde vermogen als andere kleine windturbines met bladen tot 1,2 m lang en is daarmee de krachtigste windturbine voor zijn grootte. De turbine is ontworpen rond een uniek lage inertie axiale flux generator die Neodymium zeldzame aarde magnetische materialen gebruikt.Deze dynamo heeft nul 'cogging' waardoor de turbine te draaien in de lichtste van de wind en snel te reageren op windvlagen.

De uitstekende productie van elektriciteit komt voort uit een uitzonderlijk lage opstart windsnelheid en superieure overdracht van de macht van de wind in het dagelijks winden van 5-8m / s (11-18mph). Dit wordt bereikt met 5 bladen en door fijnafstelling de dynamo naar de juiste hoeveelheid koppel extraheren rechts RPM.

Klein en lichtgewicht

De LE-450 windturbine heeft een uniek ontworpen aluminium chassis dat niet alleen leidt tot een totale turbine gewicht van slechts 8 kg, maar garandeert responsieve reactie op windvlagen. Kleine werkbereikindicatielampjes de turbine's bij enkel 1043mm kan de turbine te worden geïnstalleerd op plaatsen waar de ruimte schaars is - op jachten, telecom torens en CCTV-stations. De wind generator is voorzien van geïntegreerde yaw sleepringen waarmee het 360 graden draaien om de veranderende richting van de wind te volgen.

Robuust en betrouwbaar

De LE-450 windturbine is ontworpen en geproduceerd om te worden net zo robuust mogelijk te geven van een voorspelde levensduur van 20 jaar - met weinig onderhoud nodig in die periode! De LE-450 overleeft destructieve harde wind door middel van een eenvoudige passieve aerodynamisch ontwerp dat turbine toerental en vermogen beperkt bij een windsnelheid van 20 m / s (45 mph).

De LE-450 windturbine is vervaardigd uit hoogwaardig aluminium legeringen en roestvrij staal dat met een laser bewerkt is geweest, CNC gefreesd, hard geanodiseerd en gepoedercoat om ervoor te zorgen dat de turbine is bestand tegen de harde gevolgen van de mariene milieus. De bevestigingen zijn vervaardigd uit roestvast staal A4, dat de zwaarste omstandigheden kunnen overleven. De Timkin lagers bevatten lage temperatuur vet voor een optimale prestatie neer te -40degC.

The LE-600 48v wind turbine is designed to charge a nominal 48v battery bank

The LE-600 48v wind turbine is designed to charged a nominal 48v battery bank. The way this works is that once the turbine begins to turn, voltage is generated as the turbine speed increases. At this stage, the turbine is off-load and has not yet 'cut-in'. When the LE-600 reaches approximately 290rpm at 3m/s (its designed cut-in speed) the turbine voltage will have increased to level of the battery voltage, in this case 48v nominal. This cut-in speed is by design as the turbine blades need to be rotating fast enough to generate lift before any load is drawn from them. As the turbine speed and voltage continues to increase with windspeed, the batteries 'hold' the turbine voltage down and the turbine instead delivers current to the batteries.

Charging batteries is very simple for the wind turbine. The batteries are effectively a resistance and current is delivered from the turbine and into the batteries following the principles of ohms law.

Using any grid-tie inverter is far more complicated as the simplicity of ohms law is not present.
Instead, the inverter has to be programmed with a MPPT curve which tells the inverter how much power to draw from the turbine judging by the turbines speed. Draw too much power to soon, and the turbine will stall. Draw too little power and the turbine will run very fast and noisily and will not generate much power. The inverter monitors the turbines output voltage and uses that as an analogy for speed. To further complicate the situation, once the turbine is 'on-load' and doing work, its output voltage is no longer proportional to the speed. Thus the MPPT curve that is programmed into the inverter is quite important!

The Windmaster 500 has a voltage range of 25-125 volts in which the MPPT can be programmed. When using a Windmaster 500 with the LE-600, the MPPT curve is programmed between 25-65v.
We have found in our testing, that a LE-600 neither a 48v or 24v are quite right for use with the Windmaster and thus we developed the GT1 variant. In a way you could describe the GT1 variant as a '30v' variant. It puts the voltage characteristics of the turbine in-line with the aerodynamic characteristics of the turbine blades and the electrical characteristics of the Windmaster 500 and the MPPT curve that is programmed into it.

Turbines of different manufacture have different aerodynamic / electrical characteristics and some use 48v turbines with the Windmaster 500. There are a lot of variables and this might be ok with other turbines, but we weren’t quite happy with that and so developed the GT1 variant.

It would be possible to use a 24v or 48v LE-600 with the Windmaster, but the performance would be sub-optimal  and in any case we have developed the GT1 variant especially for the Windmaster 500.

Kingspan Has Acquired Proven Energy Who Became Short Of Cash

Kingspan Has Acquired Proven Energy Who Became Short Of Cash



Kingspan the company renowned for there insulation and energy saving products acquired the assets of Proven Energy UK the manufacture of wind turbine equipment. The company get into trouble when their popular P35-2 model had blade issues in the US and Europe with many recalls costing the company dearly. Employing 20+ people at its Scottish plant the jobs were safe guarded by the purchase by Kingspan on the 7 October 2011.

Proven Energy's website is still running but the the livery of Kingspan and mention that the site will be up and running again soon. With many wind turbine installers familiar with the Proven Energy range of wind turbines it is a guessing game what future equipment Kingspan will release in the future. Kingspan is a very well respected brand and it is undoubted they will spend a lot of time and money on Research and development  before releasing any new products. This was the problem with Proven energy and ultimately the closure of the casket lid.

The KW3 and KW6 are the main models which Kingspan are pushing out on the market which were existing Proven Energy Models.
