Windmaster 500 Grid-Tie Inverter

The Windmaster 500 offers a simple solution when connecting an FE1048 turbine to your household mains supply. With it's light weigh and compact size, the Windmaster 500 can be installed inside existing meter cupboards, or in outbuildings, but is not suitable for use outdoors. Connection to the input of the inverter is provided by 2 dedicated DC power plugs, supplied. The output should be connected in accordance with the electrical requirements for the country of installation.

The Windmaster 500 is supplied exclusively by FutureEnergy in the UK, and comes complete with DC input plugs, PC-Link connection and Monitoring/Logging software. In low wind sites it is advisable to use only one inverter with the FE1048, since over 90% of the power produced by the turbine will lie under the 500W export power limit of the inverter. For higher wind speed sites, we would suggest using 2 inverters, connected in parallel, to handle the full power of the FE1048 turbine. No charge controller is required when using these inverters, since they can handle a much higher input voltage than the turbine can produce, even in power-cut situations.

In "Hybrid" systems (those involving both wind turbines and solar PV), use the standard Soladin 600 inverter, keeping the installation simple and very neat. We can supply the whole range of Mastervolt grid tied inverters

 

The Studer Series

The AJ series consist of pure sine wave inverters that convert the battery voltage to AC voltage for all AC devices.

• a range from 275 to 2400w (P30)
• a high and steady efficiency
• an outstanding overload capacity, thanks to the combined use of a toroidal transformer and a MOS power stage
• a digital regulation and microprocessor controlled
• an electrical supply to any kind of electrical device
• a complete internal protection of the inverter (overload, overheat, short-circuit, reverse polarity)

The AJ2400-24 converts a 24 volt battery input to 230V AC 50Hz at 94% efficiency. Capable of 2000w continuous output. 2400w for 30 minutes and 5200w surge output for 5 seconds. Microprocessor control with under-voltage, over-voltage and short-circuit output protection. Special standby circuit reduces no-load power consumption to just 0.4 watts.

The AJ series offer:

• a range from 275 to 2400VA (P30)
• high efficiency
• an outstanding overload capacity, thanks to the combined use of a toroidal transformer and a MOS power stage
• digital regulation and microprocessor controlled
• an AC electrical supply to any kind of electrical device
• a complete internal protection of the inverter (overload, over temperature, short-circuit and reverse polarity)
• an adjustable stand-by level on a large range and from a very low level (optional for AJ 275-12, 350-24 and 400-48) All the AJs in 12V and 24 V are certified according to the EC norm ECE-R 10 (E24). It is mandatory in all countries of the EU, for appliances on board of vehicles, to be E marked / certified as confirmed above

 

The Victron range available in 12v 24 48v, 200watts to 18000watts a superb Inverter with outstanding performance and efficiency.

SinusMax - Superior engineering

Developed for professional duty, the Phoenix range of inverters is suitable for the widest range of applications. The design criteria have been to produce a true sine wave inverter with optimised efficiency but without compromise in performance. Employing hybrid HF technology, the result is a top quality product with compact dimensions, light in weight and capable of supplying power, problem-free, to any load.

Extra start-up power

A unique feature of the SinusMax technology is very high start-up power. Conventional high frequency technology does not offer such extreme performance. Phoenix inverters, however, are well suited to power up difficult loads such as refrigeration compressors, electric motors and similar appliances. The 24/800model, for example, is capable of starting a typical refrigerator.

Virtually unlimited power thanks to parallel and 3-phase operation capability

Up to 6 units Phoenix 24/3000 can operate in parallel to achieve higher power output. Six 24/3000 units, for example, will provide 15 kW / 18 kVA output power. Operation in 3-phase configuration is also possible.

To transfer the load to another AC source: the automatic transfer switch

If an automatic transfer switch is required on models rated at 1200 VA or more, we recommend to use the Phoenix Multi instead. The switch is included in these products and the charger function of the Multi can be disabled. For our lower power models we recommend the use of our Filax Automatic Transfer Switch Computers and other electronic equipment will continue to operate without disruption because both the Filax and the Phoenix Multi feature a very short switchover time (less than 20 milliseconds).

Computer interface

All models rated at 1200 VA or more have a RS-485 computer interface. All you need to connect to your PC is our data link MK1b (see accessories on Datasheet). This data link takes care of galvanic isolation between the inverter and the computer, and converts from RS-485 to RS-232. Together with the VEConfigure software, which can be downloaded free of charge from our website www.victronenergy.com, all parameters of the inverters can be customised. This includes output voltage and frequency, over and under voltage settings and programming the relay. This relay can for example be used to signal several alarm conditions, or to start a generator. The inverters can also be connected to VENet, the new power control network of Victron Energy, or to other computerised monitoring and control systems.
