6. Before the connection between the wind turbine flange and the tower flange, please connect the three leads of the wind turbine to the three leads of the tower accordingly.

When using the hinge method, every pair of wires should be no less than 30mm in length and be wrapped with Acetate cloth tape for three layers, then sheathed with a spun glass paint tube. With this method, connect the three pairs of wires (attention: the joint of the wires can’t bear the weight of the tower leads directly, so wires 100mm downward from the joint should be wrapped with adhesive tape and then stuffed into the steel pipe.

After that, wind turbine flange and tower flange can be connected.

7. Before hoisting the wind turbines, the end (which should be connected to the controller) of the tower lead should be cut away the insulating layer for 10mm or so. Then screw the three exposed leads (shot circuit) together.

8. During the installation, it is prohibited to revolve the rotor blades roughly (the ends of wind turbine leads or the tower leads are short-circuited at this moment). Only after all the installation and the examination is finished and the security of the erection crew is guaranteed, it is allowed to dismantle short-circuited leads and then connect with the controller and battery before running.

Attention:

  • The battery should be connected to the controller before the wind turbine is connected.
  • If the above-stated instructions are not followed when assembling and installing the wind turbines, we are sorry that any problem or failure resulting is not to be covered by warranty.

Part 4. The Wind Turbine Installation Steps 

Note: It is prohibited to assemble and install wind turbines on rainy days.

1. The insulated current transmission wires: transmission lines are built in the iron pipe tower. The upper end is led out through the center bore of the wind turbine flange, while the bottom end is led out from the pipe opening which is 30cm away from the ground. The section from the opening to the point which is 60cm beneath ground should be protected by iron pipes whose O.D should be 17mm to 21mm. The underground paths of the transmission lines to the controller can made arrayed and covered with iron pipe or a plastic pipe.

2. The installation sequence of the wind turbines can follow the steps as illustrated in figure3.

2- 1. Place the steel bracket on the ground; block up the flange joint to 1.3m.

2-2. Align the wind turbine flange to the tower flange. Cut away the insulating layer of current transmission wire end ( which is to be connected with the controller) for 10mm, then short circuit the exposed copper wires( screwed together).

2-3. After the flange bolt (9) is mounted with the flat washer ( 10), plug it in the correspondent holes of the wind turbine flange with the bolt’s head up, then through tower flange holes. Set the bolt into the flat washer, the spring washer, and then use a spanner to tighten the nut with the flange bolts. Similarly, plug other bolts, flat washer, and spring washer.

Screw tight all nuts, please refer to Table 2, about the potency dimension needed to tighten them.

3. Align the 2 holes in the blade(6) with 2 holes in the groove of the hub (5), align accurately, then put stainless steel bolt(13) from blade to groove through the holes, then screw lock nut(14)( Attention: lock nut is one-time use, screw tight, do not screw loose, otherwise it will be out of use), installation of other blades follow the same operation, please refer to Table 2 on force dimension of installation.

4. First put the bigger end of the lock nut into a hexagonal hole centered in the hub, then onto the threaded shaft of the generator, press the nut with the left hand while rotating the wheel clockwise with the right. Push the nut, then use the lengthening hex wrench to assist with the right-handed rotation of the wheel. Finally lock the nut (Attention: nut can only push forward, withdrawal is prohibited.) Please refer to Table 2 on Force Dimension of the installation.

5. Clasp fairing (8) with wheel hub (5), align the three notches with blades, and clasp the cone of fairing to get notches to the seam of the wheel hub.

6. The lifting of the wind turbines and tower should be proceeded with the presence of skilled slingers and the security should be guaranteed. The tower’s stance should be executed on the basis of the relevant requirement of permanent construction.

7. After the installation of the tower and lightning protection is finished, use 500V meggar to measure insulating resistance between transmission lines and earth (earth wire can act as ground) in the case of not losing the short-circuited leads of transmission lines, measurement should not be less than 5MΏ, otherwise, the insulating layer may be crushed, damaged or moistened. It should be dealt with immediately.

Part 6. Maintenance and Precautions 

  • The wind generators often work at poor environments, thus please make sure to check regularly with your sight and hearing; check whether the tower is swaying or whether the cable is loose (using a telescope is also a good idea).
  • Timely inspection should be made after a heavy storm. If there is any problem, please put down the tower slowly for maintenance. Regarding the wind turbines for streetlights, there should be an electrician climbing the pole to check if there is any problem when wind turbines have been short-circuited and security protection measures prepared.
  • The free maintenance batteries should be kept externally clear.
  • Do not disassemble the equipment by yourself. Please contact the sales department when the equipment is out of order.
