AMTEK RENEWABLE ENERGY SERIES
5 KW VERTICAL AXIS
WIND TURBINE
Convert wind into electrical energy
more efficiently and reliably thanks to
AMTEK’s innovatively-designed wind turbine.
The AMTEK Vertical Axis Wind Turbine is today’s most viable
and resilient renewable-energy solution across varied conditions
and applications.
• Reliably captures maximum horsepower from directional winds at 360 degrees.
• Incorporates a Magnetic-Direct-Drive [MDD] with high-power magnets in the flywheel’s blade to more effectively capture and direct electrical fields.
• Operates with only one moving part, a high-quality oil-lubricating immersed double bearing. This makes the VAWT easy to transport, install and maintain with minimal mechanical expertise, as well as contributing to its extended life.
• Remarkably durable in severe weather conditions such as high winds, extreme temperatures, and varied precipitation.
• Operates with minimum vibration, electro-mechanical emissions, and lower ambient noise. Thus it is possible for the VAWT to share space with communication towers, control systems, and the like without signal interference.
• Starts generating electricity at a wind speed as low as 3 m. / sec.
