We are not longer offering this turbine as Fortis Wind Energy, our supplier, is currently redeveloping it

For remote locations that just need some electricity there is the Espada. The Espada is the smallest wind turbine in our range. It is most often used for local battery charging.

Generator Type

The generator is a synchronous, 3 phase permanent magnet one. It comes in different voltages, so you can connect 12Vdc, 24 Vdc or grid connect single phase.

Delays

Delivery time: between 2 and 4 months.
In order to optimize your system and production, each installation is specific and therefore equipment need to be ordered case by case.
Installation time: 1 or 2 days depending on the size of the mast.
Civil works need to be done a month before for the concrete to cure.

Masts

Standard masts are either Guyed wire mast or Free standing pole 6 to 12 meters.

Batteries

In a stand alone system, the battery pack that we recommend is a Rolls acid 24V 400 Ah

Inverters

The Passaat comes with a SMA Windyboy inverter if connected to the grid or a Victron Phoenix 24/600 one in a stand alone system.

Safety system

Safety system by hinged vane which will gradually turn the rotor out of the wind and a short circuit system for the generator.

Power Curve

The power curve gives you the instantaneous power across a range of wind speeds.
