Remove the AC cables from the controller to perform the measurements. If the measurements are out-of-range, go to next step. If the measurement values are correct, you might have a damaged controller. Please contact Silentwind.

2.2 At the wind generator AC wires Measure here Measure directly in the Silentwind wind generator wires. The values are described at 1.5 table. If the measurements are in range, it means that the extension cables are faulty and should be repaired/replaced.

3.3.2. Unscrew the 3 screws on the front plate (please be careful not to damage the front face paint). The front face should go out easily. 3.3.3. Unscrew the wires that are connected to the PCB and perform the measurements (you don’t need to completely remove the windings).
3. How to remove the wind generator windings Remove the 3 front face screws. Be careful not to chip the front face paint. The front face can be easily removed. Unscrew the three marked screws and the font face set can be removed from the body. Troubleshooting_Low_Power_v28_03_2019 Download section at: https://www.silentwindgenerator.com/en/download/...

Removing the rotor, it’s not difficult but it can be a bit tricky. Please be careful not to harm yourself neither the equipment. To remove the rotor, you can press the axis against a table to go half way then pull it out completely. The windings are usually sold with the front face but if you pretend to completely remove the stator, you must use a rubber hammer and hit the front face to be able to release it.
4. How to clean the Slip Ring To be able to clean the Slip Ring, please read the previous chapter How to remove the wind generator winding to disassemble the front face. To remove the Slip Ring, you must first remove the PCB. Disconnect the three AC wires, unscrew the three screws (A) and disconnect them from the PCB.

Remove the marked Slip Ring screws. The Brushes have a compression spring. Please be careful when removing the Brushes. You don’t need to remove the other two screws to perform the Slip Ring cleaning. The Slip Ring Exploded view.

CLEAN HERE! First, clean the marked contacts with a clean cloth (see the above drawing). If the surfaces are not clean enough, use the cloth with a bit of Alcohol. Using Isopropyl Alcohol (Isopropanol) is more efficient but the standard Ethyl Alcohol 96% can also be used. The last resort will be using a high grit sand paper (600 grit up).

To assemble the Slip Ring, do it in reverse order. 1-2-3 After assembling the Slip ring and before assembling it on the wind generator body, please confirm the wire resistance with the multimeter. Measure from 1 to 1, 2 to 2 and 3 to 3, it should act like a short-cut and it should not have any resistance. If you are measuring 2 Ω...
