Affordable Solar offers a range of wind power products including the Whisper 100/200 12-48V charge controller. This is a shunt type charge controller that is SCR based. The Whisper 100/200 wind charge controller comes with diversion load that helps the turbine to operate silently without noise during battery charging. The charge controller protects both the battery and wind turbine.
The Whisper 100/200 charge controller is well fitted into the battery enclosure. The wind charge controller comes with an optional LCD and anemometer, which facilitates atmospheric wind speed measurement and comparison with controller output.
When the optional LCD is configured with the Whisper 100/200 12-48V charge controller, it becomes capable of displaying real time data on wind generator performance. The LCD can be affixed on the top of the controller, or be placed at a maximum distance of 1000 feet. The LCD that is mounted away from the charge controller facilitates remote monitoring of the turbine.
The Whisper 100/200 12-48V charge controller offered by Affordable Solar provides shunt isolation for the battery or the wind turbine at the time of regulation. The controller is equipped with a diversion powered fan that ensures quiet operations. The block connectors of the wind charge controller allow easy access of the wind turbine and battery. The Whisper 100/200 12-48V charge controller is compatible with all types of programmable inverters. The dimensions of the wind charge controller are 27 x 14 x 9 inches, while its weight is 10 pounds.
