9.1 Safety instructions
Do not operate the Superwind 350/48V until first verifying that personnel cannot
touch or come in contact with the rotor.
Do not operate the Superwind 350/48V unless it is properly connected to an electrical
load. Examples of improper operation include running the generator with no load
connected or when connected to a fully charged battery in a system without a charge
regulator and power resistor installed.
9.2 RUN and STOP
While the Superwind 350/48V is designed for autonomous, unattended operation in
all weather conditions, there will be situations where you would like to stop it (extreme
weather, maintenance, repairs, etc). As such, installation of the provided stop switch is
mandatory for all installations.
In the RUN-position the wind generator supplies power to the battery and consumers
connected. Placing the switch into the STOP-position simultaneously disconnects the
wind generator from the battery and short-circuits the generator leads, shutting down
the rotor. In very high wind conditions the rotor may continue to rotate, although at
very low revolutions.
Never try to stop a spinning rotor by hand. Even when slowed down by the stop
switch, a slowly running rotor can cause serious injuries.
9.3 Power control
As described earlier in Section 4.3b
the Superwind 350/48V is
equipped with a unique
aerodynamic feathering rotor
control system. This over speed
control helps ensure constant
electrical output at high wind
speeds, adding to the unit’s
autonomous operation and
safety.
