Description: Patriot-WZ 12V AC 1600W Wind Turbine Kit with WindZilla For Land or Marine Use Product designed in Canada The WZ model is Specifically designed for: GreenergyStar's WindZilla PMA installed into the Patriot. Introduction Over the last few decades renewable energy has started to gain its ground. Of all the different kinds of alternative energy sources available, the use of wind power has been growing steadily. Home owners have since adpoted to DIY wind projects. However, the task of building a wind turbine from ground up is no easy task. Most DIY wind turbines availalbe in the market today have a lot of mechanical flaws and are not visually attractive. Not only does the unsightly turbine attracts much complains, but flaws that were never addressed will result in frequent maintenance and headaches, which eventually leads to abandonment / cancelation of the project. Since there are a lot of room for imporovment, we have designed a new wind turbine - the Patriot to bring things up to par. To name a few, Anti vibration system to increase power efficiency. More details / features will be available below: Exploded View Generator Specification: Voltage 3Phase 12 VAC Permanent Magnet Rare Earth Neodymium magnets Moisture /Corrosion Resistance Yes, sealed exterior, ball bearing, coated rotor Shaft Daimeter 17mm RPM at 12V 300RPM Body Material Aluminium Alloy & Steel Rotor Diameter 12cm (4.75 inches) Length 11cm (4.5 inches) Weight 2.88kg (6.47 lbs) Mount 6 Slots for bolts Cable Length approx. 18cm (7inch) Rotation Bi-directional, recommend clockwise The above battery charging power curve is obtained from charging a 12V 88Ah battery bank with our SolarWind Hybrid Charge Controller. (not included in this listing) What is the difference in an Patriot Wind Turbine? GreenergyStar's Patriot Wind Turbine is the most mechanically advanced generator in the market today. It features many upgrades that solves performance issues that our competitors struggle with. It is designed to work with other GreenergyStar branded products such as the SolarWind Hybrid RX charge controller and grid tie inverters to better utilize the renewable energy generated. The following list will summarize its major features: I. Exceptional Body Design Built-in Tower Adapter with Anti Vibration & Fictionless Rotation System With Dual Bearing - Dual Metal ball bearing to prevent vertical vibration - Yaw shaft diameter: 40mm - 3cm of stabilizing distance with 2 bearings - No vibration = Increase in efficiency - Reduction in noise output - One piece design Yaw body provides more stability Without Tower Adapter / Bearing - When there is no tower adapter, it makes installation harder than it has to be -Without bearing, metal connection / joints will grind on each other and wear out - Plays will get larger and turbine will vibrate during operation Tilt Angle Pros - Compensates thrust forces from incoming wind - 5 degree Tilt Angle ensures the blades will never hit the tower during strong wind II. Blades, Hub Blade Features - Color: Black - With 62" swept area when mounted on a 5.5" Hub - Incorporates highly efficient, true airfoil - Quiet performance with minimal vibration - Manufactured using a precision injection molding process that produces blades of exceptional consistency - Made with new thermoplastic to increase durability - Smoother and more durable than any blades you can find in the market - Adjustable blade degree with included degree adjusters / shims (see picture below) - High resistance to bending (over 150 degrees) What is Nylon 6.6? Nylon is a man made product. On the man made side, you will see primarily three types of thermoplastic. These are polyester, polypropylene, and nylon. Of the three types, nylon is by far the better choice. Nylon is extremely versatile in its applications. It is highly resistant to abrasion and has excellent resilience. Within nylon, there are two groups: nylon 6 and nylon 6.6. Nylon 6.6 is the premium thermoplastic. It is the thermoplastic that is most often specified by professional architects and designers because it provides the flexural strength, low-temperature toughness, UV Resistance and is the most resilient. Nylon 6.6 performs well in many applications such as wind turbine blades, automotive parts, and other fields that get a lot of wear and tear. Nylon 6.6 has additional molecules that give extra strength and the resilience compared to nylon 6. If you still have no idea what Nylon 6.6 is, do a search on google. Adjustable blade degree with included degree adjusters (Shims) Increase/decrease blade angle by installing degree adjuster under the blades "+" on the right side = Increase angle = More Torque, Less Speed "-" on the right side = Decrease angle = Less Torque, More Speed Specification Material Nylon 6.6 + Carbon Fiber (<20%) Length 29 inches Width (base) 6 inches Mounting 6mm bolts Weight (per blade) 340g, 12oz Hub Features Hub Specifications: Material Aluminum (with coating) Diameter 140mm Capacity 3-6 Blades Compatibility Air-X, 403, 303 Shaft Diameter for 17mm shaft Disc Thickness 23mm Weight 0.30kg III.

Rotating blades present the most serious mechanical hazard. The blades may be moving at velocities over 275 miles per hour (440 km/hr). At this speed, the tip of a blade is nearly invisible and can cause serious injury. Under no circumstances should you install the turbine where a person could come in contact with moving rotor blades. The installer of these blades is solely responsible for the use or misuse of these blades.
