Performance

XZERES 442SR

  • One of the most efficient rotor designs tested by a third party in the small wind industry
  • Produces up to 40% more energy than its competitors of the same rating in some wind resources
  • High performance across a wide variety of conditions and capture maximum low wind speed environment
  • State of the art components with superior reliability
  • Robustness turbine design with 20+ year life expectancy
  • Simple design limits moving parts to reduce service and maintenance costs, as well as allow for easy installation

XZERES 442SR

The XZERES 442SR has the most efficient rotor design tested by a third party in the small wind industry today. Its performance has been tested and validated by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and can produce up to 40% more energy than its competitors of the same rating in some wind resources.

The XZERES 442SR is designed to generate low cost energy through efficiency, reliability, and longevity. Its simple design limits moving parts to reduce service and maintenance costs, as well as allow for easy installation.

This machine gets its name from its large swept area of 442 sq ft. Name plate capacity of a wind turbine tells one very little of its efficiency or energy production potential, whereas swept area is directly related to energy production. By focusing on performance and reliability, our systems produce the lowest lifetime cost of energy, which yields the best return on your investment.

Engineered Performance

XZERES Wind manufactures wind energy systems built from the ground up for performance, reliability and value. The XZERES 442SR is capable of generating 2,070 kWh per month at an average wind speed of 6 m/s, and features a simple design with minimal moving parts to reduce maintenance and provides for quiet operation.

A reliable, efficient source of renewable energy, the XZERES 442SR solutions cover a broad range of applications, from residential, commercial, remote energy supply, community power, island electrification, telecommunications, hybrid, and specialty solutions.

On Grid

The XZERES 442SR on grid system is designed to plug directly into the power grid. It Includes wind turbine, turbine controller, two (2) SMA -SB- 6000 (6kW) inverters, diversion load, service disconnect switch and lightning/surge protection.

Off Grid

Designed for serious off grid living as well as business applications. The system includes wind turbine, battery charge controller, diversion load, service disconnect switch and lightning/surge protection.

Marine

The XZERES 442SR-M features corrosion protection for marine coastal applications. Surface finishes, fasteners, and electrical enclosures are compliant with industry standards for marine, estuary, and coastal environments with high salinity, but are not intended for direct spray or submersion.

Turbine Diagnostics

Turbine health is important for sustained uninterrupted energy production. The XZERES Turbine Controller has an on-board diagnostics system which records performance metrics and is web enabled and Wi-Fi accessible from a home computer or handheld device.
