BLADES: The AIR's blades are
made of carbon fiber reinforced composite that twists as the turbine reaches its rated
output. This twisting effect changes the shape of the blade, causing it to go into stall
mode. This limits the RPM of the alternator, preventing damage in high winds.
ALTERNATOR: The AIR's
alternator is optimized to match as close as possible the energy available in the wind. It
is constructed with Neodymium Iron Boron permanent magnets and is brushless for superior
performance and maintenance-free operation.
REGULATION & CONTROL ELECTRONICS:
The electronics performs several functions to assure maximum output and safety for the
user. The control electronics maintains a load on the alternator at all times to make sure
that the turbine never over speeds, regardless of the condition of the battery. As the
battery is charged, the sophisticated regulator periodically checks the line, correcting
for voltage loss and monitoring charge rate. Once the battery has reached its optimum
charge level the regulator shuts the current off, preventing the battery from being
overcharged while maintaining a load on the alternator at all times to prevent over
speeding.
