  • Page 17: Tower Installation

    3 Tower Installation 3.1 Siting An ideal location for wind generator is required with stable speed and direction of prevailing wind. Small changes in wind speed and direction can have a dramatic effect on power production. In general, the higher the tower, the greater the wind speed and ultimately power production are. Therefore, the site of your wind turbine should be carefully considered.
  • Page 18: Design Requirements

    WARNING: Even if installing the turbine in a less windy location, the three-phase wires must be short circuited during installation to prevent the turbine from turning. 3.2 Design Requirements The tower has a direct effect on the safety of the wind turbine. HYE offers some tower choices for HY series wind turbine. The following section provides a summary of the available towers.

    5.1.2 Wind Turbine Insensitive to Adjust Rotor Direction 1) HYE wind turbine mainly adopts tail yawing to adjust the blades direction, if it is not sensitive to adjust blades direction, reasons may be: the turbine alternator shaft is damaged, or the tower is out of plumb.
  • Page 24 5.1.3 Rotation seed Dramatically Decreases Wind turbine rotation speed dramatically decreases under heavy wind condition, which can be mainly divided into normal deceleration and abnormal deceleration: 1) Turbine normal deceleration is due to wind turbine over-speed protection, for example, dump load, electromagnetic braking and blades aerodynamic braking.
  • Page 25: System Troubleshooting

    5.2 System Troubleshooting 5.2.1 Off-grid wind and solar hybrid system 5.2.1.1 Solar Output Voltage Too Low or No Output 1) Check whether solar panel lead is short circuit, circuit break, open circuit or not. 2) Check whether solar panel is damaged or accumulated too much dust, etc. 5.2.1.2 Abnormal charging Wind turbine does not charge battery is mainly caused by: 1) Wind speed is too low to reach cut in point.
  • Page 26 5.2.2 Grid-tied Wind Turbine System 5.2.2.1 No power feed into grid 1) wind speed is too low, wind turbine still haven’t reach it’s cut-in wind speed, so no current generated in less than 2.5m/s wind speed. 2) Wind speed is too high, wind turbine output voltage reach the over-voltage point, controller short-circuit braking system protect the wind turbine and the whole system, the system will restore automatically when the wind speed decrease.

    6. Maintenance Although your high reliability of HY wind turbine has been designed to run for 15 years without any maintenance, reliability and performance will be enhanced if you periodically inspect your system. IMPORTANT: It is suggested that putting down the pole and making wind turbine short circuit before some extremely bad weather, such as typhoon, in case of some unpredictable accidents happen.
