 2.1 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

• Before you begin installing, read this entire owner’s manual. Identify and
note your model wind turbine where it appears in this manual. Following
the instruction and recommendations in this manual will help assure safe
and enjoyable use of your new renewable energy system. Please take the
time to read through this manual prior to assembly.
Place this instruction manual in a safe place for reference.

2. GENERAL
•

• Wait until a calm day to install or perform maintenance on your Turbine

with activation of brake.
• Listen to your Turbine, if you hear any mechanical noise, maintenance
may be required, please contact your Turbine dealer.
• After installation re-adjust and tighten the screws and bolts.
• Adhere to proper grounding techniques as established by the National
Electrical Code.
• Your Wind Turbine must be installed in accordance with this manual
and local and national building code. Incorrect installation may void
your warranty.
• Wind Turbine blades spin at a potentially dangerous speed, this must be
respected. Never approach a Turbine in motion.
• Note wire size prior to wiring. Any under sizing of wire can be poten-
tially dangerous.
• Check the manual brake periodically.
• Check the battery health periodically. The low battery voltage and im-
proper connection can cause over-spin issues.

tion functions, this device has high efficiency and no-load losses. The ver-

5. CONTROLLER
sion of the controller will significantly increase the life and sustainability of
all the component of the system.
• The special features and product information are listed below:
• Use of solid-state components.
• Manual brake function.
• Increasing the life of the controller. Microprocessor controlled charge
with integrated voltage and current limiting.
• Dump-load is included. Modern Load dissipation system in three steps

• Storage location: Dry, frost-free
• OPERATION:

5. CONTROLLER
• Ambient temperature: -25 to +40°C.
• Place of use: Max. SWTS Class III acc. to EN 61400-2.

Our wind turbine systems can only be used as a ' Small Wind Turbine System'(SWTS)
to generate power in accordance with EN 61400-2. Our products can be used for low
voltage generation purposes; voltage can be maximised to 75V with a TESUP Charge
Controller . Our wind turbines should operate with a charge controller at all times. We
are constantly improving our technology ; our latest wind turbines can generate more
than 100 volts during high winds, some products even at 10 m/s wind speed.

The TESUP Charge Controller can adjust and limit the output voltage level between 0
to 75 volts. If the inverter option is selected using the button on the TESUP charge
controller, there is no maximum voltage limitation. Stickers warning of electrical danger
are on our products. We do not take any responsibility for health risks associated with
the use of electricity.

The Company (TESUP) is not responsible for modifications and external damages that
may inhibit voltage generation. While we take utmost care to ensure that product
descriptions, pictures, information and prices are correct, we do not accept any liability
for any inaccuracies, errors or omissions. We do not accept any liability for any
inaccuracies for incorrect usage of TESUP products.

We do not take any responsibility for installation and modifications mistakes for the
products which are delivered disassembled. Colours may differ slightly from those
shown on the website due to limitations of internet, software and computer hardware
technologies. In line with our policy of continuous product improvement, TESUP
reserves the right to change, vary or make different the product specification without
prior notification.
