General About this translation of the original instructions 2.1.1 Revision status of the original instructions Revision date: ..................16.12.2016 Revision index: ....................... 00 2.1.2 Conditions for installing and operating the wind turbine system Please make sure that • The wind turbine system has been erected correctly by a suitably trained person.
Read manual before operating! Isolate before opening! Table 2 Mandatory signs 2.2.2 Information Note Indicates general information and recommendations. Name and address of the manufacturer Name TESUP Electronics Ltd. Address 3 Portal Way, London W3 6RT, UK tesup@tesup.co.uk Email Internet TESUP International...
• Operation outside the manufacturer’s specification • All modifications or changes to the wind turbine system without the manufacturer’s written approval! • Use of parts other than TESUP original parts. • Operation in non-approved SWTS classes. • Operation in strong winds or hurricanes.
When pressed, the wind turbine must be short- Emergency Stop Button circuited. (optional) Charge controller Generates electrical voltage (24 / 48 VDC (optional) Optionally).The TESUP charge controller. Type : i/HCC 2000 Battery (optional) Stores electrical energy (Acid, Gel) Solar panels Convert solar energy into electrical energy (optional)
Main components of the wind turbine Main components of the wind turbine Fig. 2: Component Quantity Nose Rotor blade Hub for holding the blades Generator for producing electricity Boom for wind direction flag Tail vane for turning the blades into the wind Adapter stud ∅...
Modifications or changes by the user The wind turbine system is in conformity with the European Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC provided only original TESUP components are used and subject to proper erection. The use of components from other manufacturers as well as...
Preparing to use the system Shipping As-delivered condition 7.1.1 The wind turbine system is shipped disassembled. Scope of supply 7.1.2 Refer to the contract documentation for the scope of supply. Requirements at the place of use Permissible wind class, footprint and minimum clearances 7.2.1 WARNING! Danger to life due to operation in non-approved wind classes!
Tower foundation 7.2.2 Design of the foundation for erecting the tower Fig. 4: The soil must have a sufficient load-bearing capacity. The size and structure of the foundation depend on the soil characteristics. Recommendation: Ask a qualified structural engineer for advice regarding the optimal design of the foundation.
Unpacking the components Carefully open the packaging. Check the shipment for completeness (refer to the shipping documents). Separate the packaging material and dispose of it in an environmentally responsible way. Assembling the wind turbine WARNING! Danger due to rotor imbalance! ...
All work on electrical equipment must be carried out by a qualified electrician with the power switched off! Note: To ensure proper operation, you must use an original TESUP charge controller. Connect a three-wire cable with a suitable cross-section (refer to Table 9 / Table 10) and the required length to the generator.
WARNING! Danger due to unsuitable tower constructions! Only use tested mast constructions or original TESUP masts . Choose a mast diameter <70 mm, so that the rotor blades are not pressed against the mast during a storm. Attach the wind turbine to the tower. Be careful not to damage the cable.
Unlock the emergency stop button or release the brake button on the TESUP charge controller. The brake is released. The fast-blinking red LED on the TESUP charge controller goes out. The wind turbine system supplies power. Restart after an emergency ...
Maintenance Safety precautions during maintenance work 10.1 WARNING! Risk of injury when carrying out maintenance work! Shut down the wind turbine system prior to all maintenance work. Take steps to prevent the wind turbine system from being switched on again by unauthorised persons.
Troubleshooting and diagnostics 11.1 Errors with LED Error messages are displayed on the TESUP charge controller. Refer to the separate instructions. 11.2 Errors without LED Error Possible cause Possible actions Not enough wind None Wind turbine does not start up “Stop”...
