9. OPERATION
9.1 Safety
instructions
Ó
Do not run your
Superwind
unless you have confirmed that no persons can touch
the spinning rotor.
Ó
Do not run your
Superwind
without an electrical load. (e.g. no load connected at
all or battery fully charged without charge regulator connected).
9.2
RUN and STOP
RUN
(autonomous
operation) – making power
when there is wind or
waiting for wind to start).
STOP
(Shut-down)
The
Superwind
turbine is designed for unattended automatic operation (autonomous
use) in all weather conditions. Nevertheless, there might be situations when you would
like to stop it. For that purpose, the use of a stop switch is recommended. See Section
6.3.6 on Page 26
For wiring, see Section 6.3.1 on page 20
In RUN-position, the wind generator supplies power to the battery and to the appliances
connected to it when there is sufficient wind power.
By manually turning the safety switch to the STOP-position, the wind generator will be
disconnected from the battery and the generator output wires will be short-circuited
simultaneously. The generator short circuit also prevents the rotor from turning at
operational speeds.
In very high wind conditions the rotor may not stop completely, but
will continue running at very low revolutions and will still be
disconnected from the battery completely.
Never try to stop the spinning rotor by hand. Even slowed
down by the stop switch, the slowly running rotor can cause
serious injuries.
If there is no stop switch wired, the only way to slow down
your
Superwind
is to disconnect the generator from the
battery and then connect the generator leads to each other.
(Short Circuit Section 7.1 on Page 27) Be extremely careful
to avoid short- circuiting the battery by mistake.
