Hello windfriends,
It's again sometime I posted on this forum,
but now I have some news again.
We developed a tower system that could be set ON the ground instead of in the ground.
This is just a small system with a 2kw generator and 10 meters hight.
We start to setup three concreteblocks 160x80x80 (2 tons pcs) in a triangle.
In the center we "hang" the tower on a heavy steel plate.
The tower is equipt with a hydraulic cillinder and pump , what makes it easy to lower and rise the tower.
We use a 5kw PLC relais steering to control the generator and rectify the current.
The dumpload is activated on 230 volts and also when the RPM becomes
higher then 600 rpm (what ever comes first)
When the grid fails the dumpload is connected immediately to stop the generator.
We dump in 3phase AC setting with 1000 watts on every phase.
To go on-grid we use the Aurora Power-one 3600 inverter.
Look at my pictures.
