Air 40 Turbine
The proven choice for remote energy
AIR 40 is the premier micro-wind turbine for land-based applications. It operates efficiently across a wide-range of wind speeds, providing energy for telecom, water pumping, lighting, SCADA, off-grid homes, or other low energy demand battery charging applications. The AIR 40 is ideal for pairing with solar to offset seasonal variation, delivering more consistent energy.
- Advanced microprocessor technology for superior performance and high wind protection without mechanical braking
Blades designed for quieter operation, durability and optimum energy capture in most wind speeds.
Lightweight design is simple and easy-to-install; integrated controller for plug-and-play operation
Pair with solar PV for redundant energy production year-round
Produces 40 kWh of energy per month generating energy in a wide range of wind speeds
DESCRIPTION
The all-new Air 40. Quieter, more efficient, and precision engineered to deliver more energy at lower wind speeds than any other wind generator in its class. Air Breeze is the next generation of Air turbines with more than 100,000 units sold in 120 countries, the world’s most popular small wind turbine.
The AIR 40 uses a new microprocessor based technology that results in an increase in performance, battery charging capability, and reliability. Additionally, “flutter” noise from the machine has been reduced.
The controller allows for peak-power tracking of the wind by optimizing the alternator’s output on all points of the cubic curve and efficiently delivers the energy to the battery. The turbine’s smart controller allows it to actually control blade rotation speed thus eliminating the buzzing noise commonly found with most small wind turbines.
