aeocon

The
aeocon converter for grid-connection of small wind
turbines is available since August 2009 in two different
versions with 3.6 and 4.6 kW. The patent pending
allrounder combines the grid-connection of the turbines
with its operation control.
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.
