Rutland 504 wind turbine 60 watt 12V

Rutland 504 wind turbine 60 watt 12V

The Rutland 504 wind turbine is ideal for charging batteries on board boats no larger than 10m in length with battery banks typically around 100Ah. While the boat is unattended the Rutland 504 will be replenishing your batteries to fully charged capacity. During longer spells on board the Rutland 504 will provide invaluable topping up so you can comfortably use the cabin lights and other low energy appliances. The Rutland 504 is so lightweight, portable and easy to handle that it is also well suited to the needs of motorhome owners. A portable land tower and rigging kit is available too. At home the Rutland 504 can be used to run a garden pump or fountain or even to provide safe low voltage lighting to a shed or garage.

Key Product Data:

* "Safety turbine" is a single injection moulding of 6 aerofoil blades protected by an outer ring.
* Produces 25w in 19 Knots
* Fine profile maximum efficiency aerofoil blades
* Produces up to 60w, nominally 5A @ 12V in 50 Knots
* Stainless steel fasteners and marine grade materials
* Turbine diameter of 500mm
* Compact turning radius of just 225mm, great for when space is at a premium
* Latest design improvements - the Rutland 503 is more reliable and efficient than ever!
* No radiated interference - complies fully with BS EN5008-1 1992
* Rated voltage: 12 v
* Weight 3.5kg
* Rated power: 60 watts

Rutland Furlmatic 1803 Wind Turbine 750W

The FM1803-2 Furlmatic Windcharger is a powerful battery charging turbine that is perfect for off-grid homes, farm buildings, telemetry stations, telecom sites, radio/TV transmitter stations, security camera systems, rural clinics, expeditions, military field applications, poultry sheds and many more situations where power is needed at isolated places.

The FM1803-2 Furlmatic can be used "stand-alone" or in conjunction with solar panels and/or a diesel generator to create your own complete power system. You can use the power at low voltage, 12V or 24V, or connect an inverter to the battery bank to deliver 230V grid type power enabling you to run many typical household appliances. The possibilities are endless, even if you have grid power an FM1803-2 can reduce your dependence on the grid and unlike grid-connect wind turbines this system ensures that if there's a power cut you will still have independent power for some essentials.
Marlec has a policy and culture of continuous improvement and so the current model is the 3rd generation of our 1.8m diameter turbine since it's launch in 1988. Improvements adopted over the lifetime have been:
Key Product Features:
Power production at 10m/s (22mph) increase from 250W to 340W, that's nearly a 40% power increase
Shape and styling have developed at each generation, the latest 3 bladed design is super smooth
Aerofoil blades that have been adapted and improved
Marlec's turbine designs are extremely efficient. They achieve energy conversion factors at around the theoretical limit across the wide range of windspeeds.
AC Power Transmission Feature
High power 3 phase AC (alternating current) is transmitted from the wind turbine to the controller and battery bank
This allows the wind turbine to be located at an optimal site or position to capture the wind whilst not compromising on power transmission losses over long distances
This further minimises the cost of transmission cables which would be more costly if DC power were transmitted over a great distance
Our own unique and purpose designed Rutland low friction, flywheel type generator is incorporated into the FM1803-2 design
This keeps the turbine spinning when other wind generators stall between gusts of wind
Overall this delivers more Ampere hours of power per day especially in low to average windspeeds
The alternator’s windings and magnets are encapsulated in glass fibre so are sealed from the elements and the harshest weather conditions
Charges at wind speeds as low as 3m/s (6-7mph) – just a gentle breeze
This means more time is spent generating power giving you a faster return on your investment
Generates 36 Watts @ 5m/s (11mph) 414 Watts @ 11m/s and up to 750 Watts peak
Automatic "furling" tail system
Activates at 15m/s (33 mph/53 kph) to automatically slow and protect the turbine in high winds
Moves the turbine at an angle to the prevailing wind, allowing the turbine to slow down, while continuing to produce power
Reduces stress on the wind generator and tower in high winds
Electronic MPC1 Controller is included with the turbine. It's key features and functions are:
It optimises turbine power output by matching power ratios with windspeed
It converts the turbine's AC power to DC, so you can locate the turbine where windflow is best – yet use the power a distance away
MPC1 Controller provides overcharge protection which shuts down the turbine when the batteries are full saving on unnecessary wear
It has a digital display of battery volts, power output and modes of operationand is available in 12 volt or 24 volt versions

1.8m diameter turbine of 3 glass re-inforced aerofoil blades
Finely balanced, aerodynamic aerofoil blades are injection moulded. This makes them lightweight, durable and very smooth running.
Our 3 blade design turbine is very quiet in operation, you will hear only a soft swishing sound when it's windy.
Our turbine blades are very efficient at converting the wind into power you can use.
Designed to mount on an 81mm internal diameter tube.
Outside diameter 91mm for top 20cm section which may then increase to a suitable larger diameter depending on the tower height and design.
All products are built and tested to the highest standards and our committment to this was demonstrated when we became the first small wind turbine manufacturer in the world to achieve ISO 9001 status over 10 years ago.

10 Meter Boat/Yacht Wind Turbine Kit Rutland 504 wind turbine 60 watt 12V (Marine Applications)


The Rutland 504 wind turbine is ideal for charging batteries on board boats no larger than 10m in length with battery banks typically around 100Ah. While the boat is unattended the Rutland 504 will be replenishing your batteries to fully charged capacity. During longer spells on board the Rutland 504 will provide invaluable topping up so you can comfortably use the cabin lights and other low energy appliances. The Rutland 504 is so lightweight, portable and easy to handle. A portable land tower and rigging kit is available on this site.

Rutland 504 Marine Mounting Kit

Marlec’s 504 Marine Mounting Kit is a 2m (6.5ft) pole kit manufactured from stainless steel and supplied in 2 x 1metre sections with joiner. Two L shaped deck fixing plates are supplied to support the pole and attach to the deck along with brackets to which guys or stays should be attached. Solid stays are recommended to provide a suitably rigid mount for the wind turbine, these are not included owing to the individual nature of the lengths required on each boat.

Want to construct a pole of your own ? A pole can be constructed for deck fixing using a continuous length of stainless steel or aluminium tube, a minimum 2 metre length is recommended. Note that the mounting tube dimensions must be 31.7mm internal diameter and no more than 38mm outer diameter. Also available from Marlec are single 1M and 500mm tube sections for you adapt to your own mounting design

Kit Includes:

1 x Rutland 504 Wind Turbine

1 x HRS503 Voltage Regulator (option for solar input, will require solar diode)

1 x 505 Marine Mounting Kit

16m x 2 core cable
