Ampair 6000 wind turbine
115 / 230 / 240 V grid connection or 48 V battery charging
 
Ampair Ž 6000 wind turbine
In creating the design for the Ampair 6000 we went back to the drawing board with the brief to create a low cost and virtually maintenance free turbine that could provide more than enough energy to power the average home or small holding and maximize revenue from feed in tariff's now offered by many countries. Another key requirement in the brief was the need for each Ampair 6000 turbine to ‘talk’. As a result, each Ampair 6000 includes a web communications package directly linked over standard GPRS mobile phone networks to the myAmpair™ internet server for remote monitoring of turbine performance and status.

Ampair 600 wind turbine
24 or 48 V battery charging or 230 V grid connection
 
Ampair 600 wind turbine
The Ampair 600 is the latest micro wind turbine from Ampair. Built on the same platform as the renowned Ampair 100 and the newer Ampair 300 it has a 1.7m diameter blade optimized for low and medium speed winds. It incorporates the PowerFurl™ system first seen in the Ampair 300 which slows the turbine down in high winds, reducing noise and mounting system loads. It is available in two versions depending on whether the need is for high capacity 24 or 48 V battery charging or for 230V grid connection. It can be used on land or on larger vessels and, like all Ampair products, is built to full marine grade specifications.

heliPods™ HP 1600/2000
The Ampair range of heliPods™ are designed to be used where access is difficult. They can be trailered, heli-lifted or forklifted into position. The pods are designed to fit within the standard international shipping pallet footprint of 1200mm x 1200mm to reduce the cost of international shipping.
 
heliPods™ HP 1600/2000
• Sturdy wind down legs for easy levelling on slopes of up to 15°
• Heli liftable - pod weight is kept low to facilitate lower cost helicopter rental.
• Easy to deploy fold-out 780W PV array - folds flat for transport.
• Ampair 600 wind turbines supplied on rapid deploy masts.
• Pallet size (1200mm x 1200mm) for shipping on conventional freight.
• Sealed AGM batteries avoids 'hazardous substance' freight issues.
• Can be deployed in and out of optional trailer.
• Integral fuel cell back up option.
• External diesel back up option.
 
trailerPods™ - TR 1600/2000/4000
Ampair’s TR range of trailerPods™ are effectively the same system as the heliPods™ but have one key difference, the ZephIRŽ unit is housed inside the trailerPod™.
 
trailerPods™ - TR 1600/2000/4000
• 2 x Ampair 600 Watt turbines as standard.
• Electric winches for raising and lowering turbine masts.
• 800 or 1600 Watts of PV options, all on rapid deploy frames.
• Twin roof hatches, one for Lidar & met mast,second for man access.
• High ground clearance off road trailer rated up to 3500kg.
• Hydraulic platform for rapid deployment of ZephIRŽ through roof aperture.
• Optional internal fuel cell back up system.
• Optional internal diesel back up system.
 
Offshore Platform
In the offshore environment the Ampair packaged power system comes into its own. With the huge costs of site access a ‘fit and forget’ power supply is even more desirable.
 
Offshore Platform
Ampair provide an offshore version of the heliPod™ system that has removable battery trays and fixed legs. The removable battery trays allow the pods to be lifted and positioned safely by the platforms davit cranes, which are typically rated to only
300kg. The pods are stackable and can be stacked by engineers or by the crane accordingly.
We also offer custom ZephIRŽ housings which stack on top of the pods to contain the ZephIRŽ and its washer liquid tank. Ampair can also manufacture a bespoke 'crows nest' solution to incorporate all of your equipment that can be mounted onto offshore structures.

To maximise generation capability from this environment, turbines are a must. Ampair supplies its Ampair 600 turbines with platform mount kits for this purpose.

• Stackable pallet sized pods.
• Battery trays easily removed for lifting on low capacity davit cranes.
• Custom enclosure for ZephIRŽ & screen washers.
• Sturdy marine grade powder coated and alochromed aluminium construction.
• Ampair 600 turbines supplied on platform mount poles.
• Diesel or fuel cell emergency back up option.

 
High load containerised hybrid units
Ampair have been making bespoke power supplies for remote power applications for nearly 40 years. Whether it be a mobile workshop, refuge or laboratory, we are highly experienced in designing and fitting out containers to meet our customers’ requirements.
 
High load containerised hybrid units
Ampair also manufacture bespoke larger power systems with power ratings up to 1kW continuous and 6kW sustained for intermittent loads. These are housed in standard 20’ or 40’ shipping containers fitted with up to ten electrically raised Ampair 600 wind turbines and up to 6kw of solar panels on a tilt out frame. The units can also be configured as diesel hybrid systems for higher continuous outputs. These systems can also be configured with internal office/workshop or site accommodation to meet your needs.

• Easily shippable as standard shipping container.
• Marine grade construction.
• Optional diesel hybrid system for higher loads.
• Optional integral workshop/ office/accommodation.
• DC, AC single or three phase available.
