The S300 wind turbine has a rated power of 300 watts for the 12V version and 400 watts for the 24V version.
The S300 wind turbine starts to turn and produce electricity at a wind speed of 5.8 knots (3 m/s). It reaches its full capacity at a speed of 27 knots (14 m/s)with a power output of 300W.
The blades are equipped with a deflection system to ensure quiet operation, and a silent block system is also provided to suppress vibrations.
In order to withstand all conditions, the wind turbine is equipped with an overspeed control which means that, beyond 40 knots, the wind turbine will automatically brake. The braking of the wind turbine is done by electromagnetism.
Particularly light (6.5kg), the body of the wind turbine is designed in magnalium (aluminum alloy specially studied to resist corrosion). On the other hand the wind turbine is covered with an epoxy paint.
This wind turbine is delivered with an external regulator which offers the double advantage of not having any electronic part in the body of the wind turbine (better reliability) and to limit the constraints of section of cable from the wind turbine (three-phase current).
