Home & Marine Wind Turbine Air Breeze 160 Watt

The 160W (watt) Air Breeze Home / Marine Wind Turbine is for use in areas of lower wind speed.

This product is available for special order only. We recommend the Leading Edge LE-300.

It is based on the hugely successful Air-X wind turbines, but has been fitted with adapted electronics and high sensitivity blades to operate at wind speeds as low as 6mph. The Air-X wind turbine is available in the standard cast aluminium finish (grey metal) or in a white marine specification (white powder coated to improve protection from salt-water and the elements).

Unlike most other small wind turbines, the Air-Breeze uses new microprocessor based technology that results in increased performance, improved battery charging capability, greater reliability and the reduction of 'flutter' noise from the machine. Many wind turbines suffer from 'flutter' noise, which is caused when the blades exceed their maximum spin rate. The Air Breeze automatically monitors wind speed and electronically slows the blades to prevent them from going into 'flutter', whilst maintaining the highest possible power output.

The Air-Breeze includes it's own integral battery charge controller, so all you need is a battery / bank of batteries and your system is ready to go. The integrated Air Breeze charge controller is a fully functioning MPPT controller, which means that it periodically reads the battery voltage and compares it to the voltage setting, only adding power if the necessary. When the battery is fully charged, the Air Breeze will slow to a 'silent spin' mode, restarting automatically when it is necessary to start charging the battery again. We recommend using a battery bank of at least 200Ah at 12V.
