The wind wheel

The yellow wind wheel faces the wind with an impressive 4 m diameter and generates up to 4,018 watts at 12 m/s. The braking system and grease nipples sit behind the wheel; braking is done conveniently from the foot of the tower using the hand brake.

Lattice tower & foundations

The 12 m green lattice tower carries the wind wheel safely and is positioned centrally over the well or borehole. A crane is recommended for a swift installation. Leg spacing 2,463 mm, diagonal 3,483 mm. The four legs need concrete foundations measuring 800 × 800 mm each and 1,500 mm deep; reinforcing bars and bolts are included in the scope of delivery.
