WINDCARRIER
Guaranteed efficient energy yield.
The operating principle of the WindCarrier.
The Wind Carrier of GILDEMEISTER energy solutions is a new generation of small wind power plants at the leading edge of technology. With a nominal power rating of 10 kW it offers efficient energy yield with its gearless drive principle, low noise operation and ease of maintenance. Utilise the power of the wind to generate clean power.
Fast up to speed.
With intelligent sensor technology the control system initiates start-up from wind speeds of more than 3.5 m/s. The system is only switched off again when wind speeds consistently remain below 3 m/s. This means constant energy yield from 3,5 m/s upwards and a buffer for wind speed fluctuations of 0.5 m/s, so that frequent switching on and off of the system is avoided. This results in a constant energy yield.

Direct information regarding performance data.
With WebApp on a smart phone you can retrieve all performance data as well as current wind speed at any time. Production data of your system is recorded and the annual yield is calculated automatically. This tool keeps you constantly informed.
The WindCarrier can handle every situation under all weather conditions.
The first generator brake reduces system speed step-wise from wind speeds of more than 16 m/s. The second 3-fold aerodynamic brake creates a short circuit in case of failure of the control system or if the power grid is faulty.
