Test
STOP switch:
If a stop switch from a previous installation is installed in the connection cable at
the AC- or DC-side ot the charge controller, it must always be removed or
secured against switching off. The activation of the stop switch while the
windgenerator is running will immediately destroy the windgenerator or the
charge controller.
Wiring:
All cables connected in line with plan? Check the polarity of all wires i
n the
screw connection poles. Is the 3-phase cable of the SILENTWIND
connected to
the charge controller? Are the cables correctly crimped and is
the strain relief
inserted?
Yaw shaft:
Is the rubber pad well placed?
Rotor blades:
Mounted in line with instructions?
Assembly hub:
Is the assembly hub fixed to the generator shaft? Is the central sc
rew nut
fastened with 30 Nm?
Connect to a 3-phase rectifier (optional) or the included charge controller. Please
read the charge controller manual for details on its installation.
Now you can go ahead!
9. Run and Stop
Switch the enclosed stop-switch or the stop-switch of the charge controller to position
“RUN”. If the wires are correctly connected to the battery (without having mixed up
the polarity) the SILENTWIND should start charging if windspeed is sufficient. You
can control this on the LCD-display of the charge controller.
10. Charging indicator
A blue LED at the bottom of the windgenerator-body shows you if the generator is
producing electrical energy. The charging-amount is shown on the display of the
charge controller.
11. Check ups
Your SILENTWIND was constructed for long term use without any maintenance.
However, simple and regular check ups ensure the necessary security.
