For special applications

Suitable for the maritime sector, but also for flat roofs of garages and houses. The off-grid LS Double Helix 0.5 Marina charges 48 V batteries with absolute silence.

The LS Double Helix 0.5 Marina was primarily developed for the maritime sector, for example to supply power to houseboats and harbor facilities. Of course, our smallest Savonius blade can also be mounted on the flat roofs of garages or houses. This off-grid turbine charges 48V batteries to close the natural gaps in photovoltaic systems, among other things.

Thanks to the Savonius principle, the four-blade turbine starts moving at a low wind speed of 3 m/s (10 km/h) and starts producing electricity (DC) silently and reliably.

Insights into the LuvSide turbine

A third roller bearing in the substructure gives this small turbine a high level of rigidity, making it exceptionally robust. The controller’s volt-step-up function ensures that electricity production can begin even at low wind speeds. In return, an integrated dump load ensures that the excess energy is reduced by more than 0.5 kW at wind speeds above 16 m/s. The 1.4 m² rotor surface is made of seawater-resistant GRP and rotates at just 20-130 rpm. The outermost point of the turbine moves at around half the speed of the wind, making the view almost meditative. This low rotational speed also means there is no danger to birds or bats.
