Primus Air 40

Product Description:
The all-new Air 40. Quieter, more efficient, and precision engineered to deliver more energy at lower wind speeds than any other wind generator in its class. Air Breeze is the next generation of Air turbines with more than 100,000 units sold in 120 countries, the world’s most popular small wind turbine.
The AIR 40 uses a new microprocessor based technology that results in an increase in performance, battery charging capability, and reliability. Additionally, “flutter” noise from the machine has been reduced.
The controller allows for peak-power tracking of the wind by optimizing the alternator’s output on all points of the cubic curve and efficiently delivers the energy to the battery. The turbine’s smart controller allows it to actually control blade rotation speed thus eliminating the buzzing noise commonly found with most small wind turbines.
Wind‑powered generators that produce electricity, often used in hybrid solar‑wind systems.
System highlights:
- Reliability: 5-year warranty with over 150,000 units installed globally since 1995
- Up Tower Controller: Integrated controls inside the turbine regulate battery voltage
- Ease of Installation: Air is wired directly to battery bank, independent of PV controller and wiring
- Certifications: CSA approved to UL and CSA specifications (Air 30 and Air 40)
- Quiet Operation: Air 40 and Air Breeze blades are specifically designed for low sound emissions
Product Specifications:
- Energy Type: Wind
- Suitable for: Commercial
Have questions?
What information does RES need to design a remote power system?
Useful starting information includes your project location, what equipment needs power, expected energy use, seasonal or year-round operation, existing electrical equipment, available generators or charging sources and your priorities for backup and reliability. RES can use that information to help determine what additional site assessment or system planning is needed.
Can solar be used on a boat?
Solar can contribute to battery charging and onboard electrical needs in marine applications. The appropriate system depends on the vessel, available installation area, electrical loads, battery system and other charging sources.
Does RES provide solar and battery systems for RVs?
Yes. RES works with RV and mobile power applications. System design can account for available installation space, expected loads, battery capacity and available charging sources.
Can RES help with remote cabins?
Yes. Cabin systems can be designed around seasonal or year-round use, expected electrical loads, available renewable resources, battery storage and backup power requirements.
Can RES design power for a remote business or facility?
Yes. RES works with residential, commercial and remote applications and can evaluate renewable generation, battery storage, generator integration, electrical infrastructure, controls and ongoing support as part of a complete system.
Can an off-grid system include a generator?
Yes. Generators are commonly integrated with batteries and renewable generation in hybrid power systems. The system can be designed so each energy source supports the site’s operating requirements.
Do I need batteries for an off-grid solar system?
Most fully off-grid solar applications require some form of energy storage or another source of power for times when solar generation cannot meet the load. The appropriate battery capacity depends on energy use, desired autonomy, seasonal conditions and the overall system configuration.
Can solar work for an off-grid property in Alaska?
Solar can be part of an Alaska off-grid energy system, but system design needs to account for location, seasonal solar availability, electrical loads and the other energy sources available at the site. Battery storage and generator backup may also be incorporated depending on the application.
How does geothermal work?
A geothermal system uses underground loops and a heat pump to transfer natural heat between the earth and your building, providing highly efficient heating and cooling without generating heat.
Does RES handle permitting?
Yes, RES manages permits, inspections, and utility coordination.
