175
Whisper,
a name with more than 10 years of experience in the field, has been
re-engineered and launched under the Southwest Windpower family of wind
turbines.
The Whisper has an all-new look featuring a cast aluminum frame and
smooth, quiet operation of the patented "angle-governor"
furling design. |
 |
The
most powerful wind turbine in Southwest Windpower's lineup
 |
The
3000-watt rated turbine will deliver in excess of 500 KWH per month in a
12 mph wind. This machine has a 14-foot (4.26m) rotor diameter providing
175 sq. ft. of swept area. The 175 has been redesigned, incorporating a
stronger, larger yaw shaft, new blade stabilizer straps and a third
spindle bearing for increased reliability.
The 175 features a handlaid fiberglass and foam core blade for smooth,
high efficiency operation and low wind start-up. It also incorporates
the patented "angle governor" design for quiet operation in
high winds. The 175 is an excellent machine for village power projects,
farms, ranches, back-up power and remote homes with large energy
demands. |
