aeocon - grid-tie converter for small wind turbines

aeocon for small wind turbines has been developed based on a concept for which SIEB & MEYER and INENSUS have applied for patent. All components required for operation have been combined in a shapely housing: rectifier, inverter and break circuit. The switchable external load resistor required during soft startup and shut down of wind turbines as well as for overvoltage protection is directly controlled by the overall intelligence of the aeocon making wind turbine and converter become one integrated system.

The controller is especially designed for small wind turbines and ensures controlled start-up and selection of the optimum operating point at different wind conditions. In that way, the best possible efficiency can be gained especially during partial load operation.

Besides control functions, the aeocon also provides different protective functions during the operation - such as controlled deceleration of the wind turbine in the case of a power failure.

The rated power of the device to be connected to a single-phase 230 V mains is specified with 3.6 or 4.6 kW. The output power is adapted to the requirements of the growing market of small wind turbines in this class.
