Rutland FM910-3

The FM910-3 incorporates the latest 3-phase alternator, taken from the Rutland 913 design which delivers a further 25% more power than the original model. It retains its basic design which has been proven time and again in the harshest of environments under critical power supply requirements, e.g. seismic monitoring In Antarctica, communications for Himalayan expeditions

The Furlmatic model has a "furling" device that tilts the turbine horizontally at right angles to the prevailing wind at windspeeds above 35mph. This protects the turbine from the forces of excessive winds and reduces stresses on the turbine and tower.

Wherever there is a site that is unattended, remote and exposed the FM910-3 can be relied on. Professional applications such as monitoring, telemetry, communications, isolated agricultural uses, navigation aids, military field applications, rural street lighting, remote homes and many more.

Furling tail design

The Furlmatic model’s “furling” device that tilts the turbine horizontally at right angles to the prevailing wind at windspeeds above 35mph (15m/s) This protects the turbine from the forces of excessive winds and reduces stresses on the turbine and tower. T

· Increased power achieved through the 3 phase alternator, 80% more power than the original model!
· Tail boom and swivel materials now in stainless steel for greater durability
· Thermostatic alternator protection now operates to slow the turbine down in prolonged high winds.
· Fixing to the tower is now a spigot that fits to an internal diameter pole of 41mm in line with the Rutland 913 and this component is distinctively blue anodised to prevent oxidisation with the pole.

It retains its basic design which has been proven time and again in the harshest of environments under critical power supply requirements eg. seismic monitoring in Antarctica, communications for Himalayan expeditions.

Product Features

· No radiated interference - complies with EEC Directive BS EN 89/336/EEC
· Available in 12V or 24V as standard Technical Features and Benefits - Efficient power conversion - Rutland Windchargers generate greater ampere hours in real wind conditions than turbines of equal and often larger diameter! This is because our unique high inertia alternator designs maintain momentum between gusts unlike other designs that stall and have to rebuild up speed. This Rutland “flywheel” action results in more free power generated into your battery. - Rutland Windchargers are the lowest cost per watt of power generated owing to our many in-house manufacturing efficiencies and volume of production for our worldwide customers More ampere hours are generated because of the Rutlands’ low wind speeds start up (of just 2.6 m/s) so power is being generated in the most typical wind speeds as well as being powerful in the strong winds - Automatic ‘furling’ tail fin directs turbine out of wind above 16 m/s for gale protection - Our low friction 3 phase alternators give a smooth and silent output - Computer designed efficient aerofoil blades. - The fine profile blades have a positive one-way-only fit that have been tested to withstand a loading with a safety factor 10 times the turbine’s maximum rpm. - EEC directive 89/336/EEC compliance ensures no radiated interference - Automatic thermostat protection in prolonged gales - Modern, durable materials for excellent reliability and product longevity, typically more than 10 years

Batteries
We recommend deep cycle lead acid batteries, sealed or non-sealed. Contact us for details of the current range.

Cable
Cable thickness depends on the overall length used between the windcharger and regulator/battery. For distances up to 20m a cable thickness of 2.5mm is recommended. The regulator should always be positioned within a 1.5m cable run from the battery to minimise voltage losses and ensure accuracy of voltage regulation

Rutland 913 and Furlmatic 910-3 Windcharger

The Rutland 913 may be used for temporary installation on land, for example on touring caravans, rv’s or summer season installed static caravans. For permanent installations the Rutland Furlmatic 910-3 model is recommended.
The FM910-3 may be used for permanent or temporary installation on land. It is not suitable for use on unstable platforms, eg floating buoys as the furling mechanism is affected by rolling motion. Stable platforms eg, oil rigs, are suitable.

The Rutland 910 series Land Tower Kit and Rigging Kit provides a 6m total height tower supplied in 3 sections with joiners. A pole ground-spike is supplied and 4 anchors for the 8guy ropes, turnbuckles, etc are also supplied. This tower pivots for easy installation and lowering and is for permanent installation! A tower can be constructed using a pole of minimum height 6m with an internal diameter of 41mm. Guy ropes or supports should always be used to ensure the tower is rigid. The final height of the turbine should be determined by the site and is discussed in the installation manuals provided.

Supplied as:
