Even a small system will “slow the meter down”, reducing your monthly electric bill while paying for itself at the same time. A larger system may ”turn the meter backwards”, so that excess power is sold back to the utility. In any case, producing your own green power is not only satisfying, but can protect you during a power failure as well. The Air Industrial is a wind turbine capable of resisting the harsh environments that generally accompany mountaintop repeater sites and off shore platforms. Southwest Windpower's engineers spent two years in research with companies such as Chevron, Texaco and Cellular One to design a product capable of reliability producing power for remote sites. Combining wind and photovoltaics in hybrid systems are quickly becoming the standard in renewable energy installations. This is due to seasonal fluctuations of both wind and solar energy resources that make it an ideal combination. Maintenance-free performance, easy installation, and high output make AIR Industrial ideal for virtually any remote battery charging application. Installations range from Alaska to Antarctica.

Whether you need just a few watt-hours per day or a lot more, we have a product for your needs. You can save thousands of dollars per year of generator run time with the installation of just one wind turbine on your site. Best yet, an AIR Industrial can be installed in just a few hours with no additional tower! How Can Small Wind Turbine Help Me? If your remote site uses a battery bank of any voltage configuration and is charged by a generator, PV panels or both; and you have a 9mph (4.5 m/s) wind resource or better, then a small wind system will work. Using an existing communications tower, you can install and AIR Industrial off the side using available hardware and connect the turbine directly to your batteries. It is that simple. Every time the wind blows, it reduces the run time on your gas generator saving you hundreds or even thousands of dollars per year in fuel costs. Need something larger?

The advancement of technology through satellite communications and lower power consumption of ground based systems has made monitoring sites practical. Likewise, small wind technology has also progressed. Today’s small wind turbines are very low cost, high output, reliable and easy to install. The United States to the Dutch government, Greenpeace, NASA , United States Geological Society and NOAA are just a few of the organizations that use thousands of AIR and Whisper wind turbines for monitoring sites around the world. Can Small Wind Work For You? Small wind systems are extremely effective for providing small amounts of power for monitoring sites. Southwest Windpower’s turbines are easy to transport and install and can be used on a variety of structures. If you have a wind resource greater than 8mph (4 m/s) and your area is free from obstacles then a wind generator will likely be a good match. It is that easy! An important reason to have a wind turbine in your system is the seasonal variations of your solar and wind resources. A hybrid system that uses both solar photovoltaic panels and a wind turbine will make the perfect compliment that provides minimal interruptions in power. Depending on your energy consumption and wind speed, the chart below will help you decide which turbine best fits your needs.

Rather than the traditional mechanical windmill, wind/solar electric systems can provide water at any time. Is a Wind/Electric Water Pumping System Right Fou You? Southwest Windpower/Grundfos wind electric water pumping systems are excellent for replacement of mechanical wind systems or new installations. The proven reliability of the system along with world wide service and sales offices make this technology the right choice. There are a number of models available for various outputs and well (bore hole) depths.   Grundfos Water Pumps The complete SQFlex pump range consists of 7 different pump sizes: 4 centrifugal and 3 helical rotor pumps. All pumps are fitted with the same size motor which, together with the new sizing tools, makes system sizing simple.   Model Pump Type 3 SQF-2 Helical Rotor 6 SQF-2 Helical Rotor 11 SQF-2 Helical Rotor 25 SQF-3 Centrifugal 25 SQF-6 Centrifugal 40 SQF-3 Centrifugal 75 SQF-3 Centrifugal   CU 200 A user-friendly interface box that maintains two-way communication with the pump and monitors the operating conditions. Built-in diagnostics indicate faults and dry-running, display operating status power consumption and level switch input.   IO 101 A very simple and easy-to-use system and with cable interface. Controlled by a manual on/off switch. IO 101 Acts as interface for powering back-up supplies, providing automatic change-over. For instance when changing from generator to solar energy, the solar panels automatically power the system as soon as the fuel tank runs dry.   Level Switch Save energy as you save water. With a level switch inside the storage tank connected to the CU 200 control unit, the pump knows when the tank is full and shuts itself off.   200 WIND TURBINE Produces high voltage DC output to power the SQFlex pump at maximum efficiency. It can be used in combination with GF43 Solar Module. Startup wind speed of only 7MPH and peak output of 900W, make the 200 Turbine an excellent choice in a wide variety of locations.   GF43 SOLAR MODULE Specifically designed to power the SQFlex system, the GF43 produces a high DC voltage of 140VDC, reducing losses through cables and providing peak efficiency for the SQFlex pump. Each GF43 is capable of producing 43 watts of peak power and is designed to be connected in parallel with other GF43's. This allows the SQFlex system to be optimized to your location & water requirements.
