The Air-X is the number one selling small wind turbine in the world. Air-X introduced an entirely new level of technology previously found only in state-of-the-art mega-watt-class wind turbines in 2001. This new microprocessor-based technology results in increased performance, improved battery charging capability, greater reliability and the reduction of “flutter” noise from the machine.
The Air-X controller optimizes the alternator’s output by allowing for peak-power tracking of the wind to efficiently deliver the energy to the battery. The smart controller on the Air-X actually allows it to control the blade rotation speed and eliminate the buzzing noises commonly associated with small wind turbines.
Here are just a few things that make the new Air-X Land superior:
More Power: Power like you’ve never seen from a battery-charging wind turbine. A new alternator, more advanced airfoil and state-of-the-art electronics enhance the Air-X’s performance by over 30%.
Quieter Operation: The Air-X Land operates quieter as a result of two significant design improvements. The new alternator spins 23% slower and our exclusive Auto-Brake™ regulator automatically slows the blades to a silent spin when the batteries are charged.
Greater Reliability: The new body design efficiently flows excess heat into the wind reducing operating temperature by 20%. The new body also doubles tip-totower clearance for reliability you can count on during storm conditions.
Much Less Sound: The aero-elastic blade design of previous Air-X modules, caused a loud fluttering noise in wind speeds in excess of 35 mph (16 m/s). The new and improved Air-X turbines have a smart controller, which allows it to actually control the blade rotation speed thus eliminating the buzzing noise commonly found with most small wind turbines. In high winds, the Air-X will continue to produce power at a reduced level until the wind decreases, at which point maximum potential output will resume.
Improved battery charging Previous Air-X designs required 300-400 amp hour battery banks so the trickle charge of the wind turbine could be adequately absorbed. The Air-X’s charge controller periodically stops charging, reads the battery voltage, compares it to the voltage setting and if the battery is charged, it completely shuts off all current going to the battery. This function is performed within a few milliseconds. The closer the battery is to reaching its full state of charge, the more often the Air-X’s circuit repeats this action. This means any size battery bank from 25 to 25,000 amp hours or higher can be charged safely. When the battery has reached its charged state, the Air-X will slow to an almost complete stop. Only when the battery has dropped below its voltage set point will it startup and resume charging.
Air-X Land: How And Where: The Air-X Land is ideal for people who need a little wind power to supply a few basic appliances such as radios, TVs and a few lights.
