 Rutland FM 910-3 'Furlmatic' Land-based Windcharger

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.

Balance of System Components

  • NEW : HRSi voltage controller (for the 913 & 910-3) and which now allows up to 160W of solar PV panels in a single, easy-to-install device. Note: solar panels must be fitted with diodes.
  •  
  • Has PWM (pulse width modulation) to prevent battery overcharge. As peak voltages are reached the HRSi tapers the input charge from the wind and solar chargers, gradually reducing input to float stage level in the batteries. This feature gradually reduces the speed of the turbine to an eventual ''idle'' thus extending the working life of the windcharger. As the battery discharges the wind turbine responds by increasing speed to deliver more power. Solar power is also tapered in the same way.
  • LED indicators keep the user informed about battery charging levels and charging status.
  • Manual shutdown switch allows the user to stop the wind and solar chargers from delivering power to the battery if required.
  • Automatic voltage detection 12 or 24V. Note : batteries must be connected first for auto-detection.
  • Built-in charge fuse protects the wiring circuit in the event of accidental reverse polarity connection.

 Use with Rutland 503, 913 or FM-910-3 Windchargers.

- Incorporates regulator and selectable LCD display.
- Charge splitter for 2 battery banks.
- Solar panel input up to 100W (Schottky diode required)
- Prevent battery overcharge.
- Fit between the Windcharger / solar and battery.
- All models are diode protected to allow charging from other sources to the same battery.


Other System Components:

* Batteries - We recommend deep cycle lead acid batteries, sealed or non-sealed, of a minimum capacity of 75AH @ 12V / 24V


* Cable - Cable thickness depends on the overall length used between the wind generator, regulator and battery. For distances up to 20m a cable thickness of 2.5mm is recommended. The regulator should always be sited within 1.5m of the battery to minimise voltage losses and ensure accuracy of battery regulation.


* Mounting pole for land based systems -the 910-3 can be installed on land using a 6m length of 61mm outside diameter tube. The mounting pole can be fixed into the ground or on pivot type base. A minimum height of 6m and of 4 guy wires is recommended. More details are given in the installation manual.
