This manual will provide you with a good basic understanding of the operation and maintenance of this unit. If you have any questions regarding the operation and/or maintenance of the unit, please consult your point of purchase or contact us at: Tel:1-800-588-0590 www.naturepowerproducts.com Email:info@naturepowerproducts.
CAUTION This symbol indicates information that could result in death, severe injury, or damage to limited property if ignored. CAUTION Be aware that failure to use the product in the manner indicated by may, depending on circumstances, also have severe consequences. All of the symbols described above indicate important safety information. Obey all safety information when using this product. Safety information is indicated as shown below.
Do not pull on, excessively bend, or attempt to modify the wires/cables of the wind generator. Doing so could result in cord damage, electrocution, or fire. Never attempt to disassemble or modify the wind generator. Doing so could result in electrocution, fire, or wind generator malfunction. Due to conditions of use, this system may not continuously supply stable electrical power.

WARNING Failure to observe these safety instructions may result in a severe accident or damage to the wind generator or other parts of the system. Do not place the wind generator body upside down or inclined during installation or maintenance. Water (rain, snow) can leak inside the body joint gap and cause damage to the turbine. During installation when the body is upside down or inclined and has the possibility of getting wet, put a cover over the body.
7.Connecting the System 7-1 Before connecting The 48V model is used as a standalone system (off-grid system). A 48V battery is required for the system. The following explains how to connect the wind generator power cable (approximately 20inches[500mm] long) and provides a typical example of a wind turbine system connection. Important *Pay attention to the + and – terminals when connecting the power cable to the battery. Reverse connection will cause serious damage.
7-4 Connecting the wind generator output cable extension A total of four power cables extend from the wind generator: *Each cable is 20 inch(500mm) long. Use a compression sleeve to connect the extension cable that leads to the D.P.D.T. switch. Use electrical tape or a shrink tube to insulate the connections. Wireless Monitor (Optional) The 2 black AWG#10 (5.5mm²) power cables are-(negative) Connect both sides of the cables to the terminal of the D.P.D.T.Blade Switch. D.P.D.T.
only when the turbine is first connected to the battery (with the capacitor discharged) or at the moment the charged capacitor is short circuited by the blade switch in the “Brake” position. CAUTION This manual is intended for individuals who have the knowledge and technical skills needed to work with batteries and electrical wiring. If the wind generator is used in an inappropriate configuration or wired incorrectly, its use could cause a severe accident and damage the system, including this product.

be the same type, chemical, age and capacity (in Ah). You can connect several 48V groups in parallel to increase the battery bank capacity in Ah. However the capacity of a 48V group is the same of each single battery in series within the group (no Ah increment). Each 48V group can have different capacities. When connected in parallel the total capacity is the sum of all individual 48V group capacities.
meets it). The total tower height must be sufficient to prevent accidents with body or structures. •The tower must withstand horizontal wind pressure of 231lbf( 105kgf) (at a wind speed of 49.2m/s, 110mph,177KPH). •If unsure please consult with your local tower contractor for details. 9-3 Cable Diameter Sizes: To select the appropriate cables gauge, measure the distance between the turbine and the batteries. Make sure to include the height of the tower. Please refer to the following wire gauge chart.
•Connect the inverter and all other devices directly to the battery bank posts. Never use the same wires of the turbine to connect other DC devices (sources or loads), Each device has to be connected directly to the battery bank posts with its own wires. If the battery bank posts are so crowded with wires, try to use a junction bar on the posts. 9-5 Grounding: We recommended installing a 1 or 2 ft (30 or 60cm)long grounding jumper between the wind turbine bracket hex bolts and the mast.

The turbine (especially its tail) is yawing continuously Every time the rotor shaft begins to spin, it stops suddenly with a strong brake action Swirling air because of turbulence Change the location and/ or increase the height of the tower/mast. Same as per (1) above. Open circuit in the DC connection between the turbine and the battery bank Check for loose or open connections in the cables. Make sure the DPDT blade switch is in the ON position (neither the open nor the brake [short circuit] one).
The battery bank voltage increases easily and fast, forcing the unit to activate the controlled rpm mode and even the complete stop very often The Indicator Light status is flashing red (controlled rpm mode of operation) Normal if the battery bank is full charged and there is not/ low power consumption from the loads connected to the battery bank.
