Marlec's largest turbine, the 1803 is designed to generate energy for the small domestic market, telemetry stations or assisting larger projects helping with lighting or heating. The 1803 is a furling generator which tilts horizontally to protect itself from being damaged in very strong winds. rutland 1803 power output curveThe graph below shows the typical power produced (in Watts) for the Rutland 1803 at different wind speeds. The 1803 generates 36 Watts at 5m/s and has a maximum output of 750 Watts at high wind speeds.  Blade diameter is an important thing to look at when comparing turbines, since it affects how much power can be captured from the wind. This turbine has a blade diameter of 1.87 metres. How windy? If you are thinking of buying a Rutland 1803, we'd advise measuring your wind resource first. Not just because we sell anemometers but it means you will have a much better idea of how much power you might generate.costthe basic turbine kit costs £1595 including VAT, however the guyed tower needed to support the turbine may cost up to a extra £400.
