SMA Windy Boy Protection Box 600
Manufacturer Part Number: WBP-Box 600-11
The Windy Boy Protection Box can do it all: It protects the inverter from excess voltage by feeding excess voltage to a load resistor, which slows down the turbine. In addition, the Box features a three-phase rectifier. It is delivered as a turnkey unit and can be used with nearly all types of arrays by different manufacturers in various performance classes. The box is thus suited for use with wind plants as well as for other permanent magnet generators such as small water power plants and CHP systems.
Features
- Highly dynamic overvoltage protection
- Optimal start-up performance of the wind turbine
- High efficiency of the integrated rectifier
- Feeding-in even at excessive voltage
- Easy installation
- 3-phase connection
- Available in three voltage classes: 400, 500, and 600 V
Specifications
Suitable for: WB 2500, WB 3000, WB 5000A, WB 6000A
Rectifier: Integrated
Detailed Description
The grid-coupling of small wind energy plants is simpler than ever - with the Windy Boy from SMA. It converts the variable frequency voltage from wind generators into grid conforming AC voltage. Thus the energy can be used privately, excess energy fed into the mains grid and respectively remunerated. The Windy Boy works perfectly together with the Sunny Island in stand-alone grids for the electrification of remote areas.
The Windy Boys are suitable for wind generators from a wide variety of manufacturers and power classes. They guarantee an optimal power adjustment and very high energy yields.
They are also best suited for flexible and worldwide use - ensured by the robust housing, the SMA Grid Guard disconnection device, the electric separation to the grid along with an automatic 50 or 60 Hz recognition.
