Wind Turbine Southwest Windpower Whisper 200
200 kwh/mo (in 12mph average winds)
10 ft (3m) diameter
80sq ft (7.3 sq/m) swept area
 Formerly
the Whisper H80, the Whisper 200 has been updated for 2005 with new features
and added flexibility for your renewable energy system. Now, any Whisper 200
can have its voltage changed, 12-48V DC, within a few minutes in the field.
The Whisper 200 is designed to operate in a site with low to medium speed averages
of 8 mph, 3.6 m/s, and greater. The 200 provides 200+ kWh per month, 3.4 kWh
per day, in a 12 mph average wind. The Whisper 200 does produce more noise than
itâs 100 counterpart, but it does produce almost twice the power. Click

In addition to its patented smooth acting side furling
design, the Whisper 200 has a number of new features that make it idea for any
new or existing photovotaic system.
- A new four bearing spindle for a smoother operation
and longer life
- An upgraded Yaw shaft that more efficiently delivers
current to your batteries
- New bronze bushing and larger diameter furling pin for
smoother furling action
- New castings that allow easy access to the stator for
changing voltage
 Included
with every whisper is our new Whisper Controller. Unlike many of our competitors,
the Whisper controller includes a diversion load to ensure quiet safe operation
of your wind turbine when the batteries are charged.
 It
installs in minutes and it protects both your wind turbine and battery. The
Whisper controller fits easily inside your battery room. Add the optional LCD
display and you will instantly receive real time data on the performance of
your Whisper 200. The display can be mounted on the controller or a 1000 (300
meters) away letting you know what is happening. You can even add an anemometer
to your controller and now you can measure wind speed and compare it to the
output to make sure you are getting the most from your Whisper 200.
The Whisper 200 is designed for even the novice. The Whisper
can be installed in just a few hours with no welding, no concrete or cranes.
Our engineers designed the work out of installing wind turbines. Now wind is
as easy to use as photovoltaics.
Why small wind? Solar and wind resources often compliment
each other. Generally when it is sunny it is calm and when it is cloudy it is
windy. This complimentary effect is even greater during seasonal changes. During
the winter and spring when the sun is at its least exposure, the wind is at
it highest. A Whisper 200 during these periods is essential to keep your batteries
charged and your lights on.
Exclusive to the Whisper, the side-furling Angle-Governor
protects the turbine in high winds by turning the alternator and blades out
of the wind, reducing turbine exposure. Unlike other wind turbines that lose
as much as 80% of their output when furled, the Angle-Governor allows the Whisper
to achieve maximum output in any wind.
