Loading... Please wait...The AIR 40 -24 from Southwest Wind power uses technology previously avaliable only in large Megawatt systems to provide increase performance and reduce flutter noise. The built in microprocessor controller provides peak power wind tracking to optimize the gernartors output and more efficient battery charging. Carbon reinforced blades using a modified pitch angle further help to maximize power production. This is a fantastic generator for cabins, sailboats, battery charging, water pumping and science projects. This generator is configured for a 24 volt battery system.
AIR 40 is the best choice to provide energy for off-grid homes, water pumping, lighting, telecom and anywhere you need electricity and have wind. AIR 40’s optimized electronic controls deliver energy quietly and efficiently. Extensive third party testing and certification shows more consistent output than the competition. AIR 40 is part of the latest generation of AIR products—the world’s best-selling wind turbines—with more than 135,000 units sold in more than 120 countries.
We recommend AIR 40 for small battery-charging applications: remote homes, telecom, industry, lighting and more. The AIR 40 is an ideal wind turbine for hybrid systems with solar to offset those cloudy or wintery periods. Not for use in marine environments. AIR 40 is built and backed by the worldwide leader in small wind.
