Wind Turbine
5 Blade 1.8M Blade Sets
These wind turbine blade sets are constructed to the highest
of standards, and are used at the heart of the Futurenergy 1KW upwind range. They can easily
be adapted to suit other turbines, and will produce up to 1.2kW of power in
12.5m/s winds. The blade set comes in kit form, including 5 x
high-spec blades, manufactured in black PAG material (virtually
indestructible, and don't require painting), with 2 x 5-blade hubs (black
anodised finish) and location pitch pins (21 degree root angle). Once
assembled, the complete rotor, measuring 1800mm in diameter, can be adapted
to suit many power generators, and will perform best in the 300 to 900 RPM
range. The hub is supplied with enough nuts & bolts to assemble the
complete rotor, and has 5 mounting holes, each of 6mm in diameter,
positioned in a pentagon shape at a PCD of 90mm. The main boss hole in
the hub has a diameter of 74.6mm, and care should be taken to accurately,
securely and centrally mount the completed rotor on to your intended
application.
In order to achieve the
best results from these blades, the final rotor assembly should be balanced
by the user prior to being used in any application. Neither
FuturEnergy Ltd, EnergiStar nor the blade manufacturers accept any responsibility for
any issues arising from unbalanced rotors in any application. Each
blade set will be supplied with instructions on how to perform a ‘static
balance’ of the assembled rotor, and it is the user’s responsibility to
ensure that every effort has been made to address any balancing issues prior
to using these blades.

Heavy Duty 6 Bladed Rotor
1.8m Diameter
 
These Blade Sets are made from black PAG material,
they are injection moulded with a glass impregnation, which are virtually
indestructible although I dare say if you try hard enough you might manage
it. The hub (285mm) on this set is larger and of heavier construction than
the Futurenergy version, also having capacity for either 3 or 6 blades as
required.
The 6 blade 1.8m version is ideally suitable for strong
wind sites as they will survive very high wind speeds, you will also find
they are very quiet in operation. these blades are capable of producing well
in excess of 2kW in strong winds.
