Mount 1.5 inch schedule 80 pipe / 1.9 inch OD approx 40 mm
Direct Grid Connect 240 V AC 220/240 V AC 15 amp breaker recommended for the AC connection
Rotor Diameter  6' 3"  (75")  Swept Area: 30 Square Feet
Rotor Material Stainless steel hub with 1/8" thick Aluminum blades
Rated Output 1800 watts at 30 mph "real world"
Instantaneous Wind-speed Max rated output by industry standard  5.0 kW - aka - I. L. S. rating or B* S*
Start-up speed  7.5 mph Grid connection @ 7.5 and maintains to 5 mph, with usable power before other systems connect. (most are 12 mph)
Performance Range Provide maximum possible production in common winds of 7.5 to 17 mph, Which increases monthly Kwh production.
Max Wind Speed Electronic braking applied at max power of 2100 Watts, (or) at 33 to 37 mph wind density dependant.
   
Safety Brake can be applied and maintained for extended periods of time through input controller.
This unit produces voltages up to 750 volts AC and care must be used if exposed wires are present.
Features Low start up speed due to low cogging and resistive torque design.
Gearless direct drive low rpm generator
High standard, quality components for use in harsh and extreme environment for wind turbines.
High efficiency and tuned for max production in common wind speeds (not to be confused with full output)
Excellent heat dissipation due to the winding running on the outside edge of the Aluminium alloy outer frame
Low mechanical resistance energy loss
Generator is designed using specially selected material and treated to resist corrosion and oxidation.
Designed for reliable long operational lifetime under long-term full output.
Designed with 15 to 20 years of operation in mind.
Brush-less Design (no more changing brushes every couple of years)
Quieter than most other grid connect system on the market.
AC output from the unit connects to grid module in your home.  (No electronics in the head to fail.)
Electronic braking and dump to load in event of grid failure, high wind events, storms, etc.
