Step 2: Layout of Tower, Base & Anchor (as shown in the following tables)
Model 200W 300W 500W 1000W 2000W
Semi diameter(m) 2.0 3.0 3.0 3.0 4.0
Size of central base(m) (long*wide*deep) 0.4*0.4*0.3 0.5*0.5*0.4 0.6*0.6*0.5
Size of side base (m) (long*wide*deep) 0.3*0.3*0.3 0.4*0.4*0.3 0.5*0.5*0.4
Special attention should be paid to the following when laying out the base and anchor:
1. Connecting line of two side anchors should be in parallel with the connection of two pinholes on
the tail edge.
2. Make sure the side of tail edge with screw thread face the anchor.
3. The height of anchor should be consistent with the height of tower base.
Therefore, the pulling force between fixed cable wires should be balanced for the sake of easy
Step 3 Concrete the Foundation of Base as well as Anchor and Install Tower Base
1. Follow the layout of the above step, dig the concrete construction holes. Please refer to the
chart one above for the size of the holes.
2. C25 concrete should be available. Four anchor bolts will be installed according to the holes on
the base. Attention to make sure they are consistent with base holes. Fix the base with bolts
on the cement done before (as shown in the graph 2).

3. Annular anchors need to be deposited 60°to 80°along the base direction and check the
distance between the four hooks of the anchors and the center of the base. Four anchors
should be horizontal (as shown in the graph 3).

2. Connect each section of tower one by one, place the tower on the supporting stand after
assembly.
3. Rip the generator and dogvane cables into the tower, and elicit the cables from the main section
of tower, near the tail edge.
4. Fix the running flange and tower flange by bolts. Hoist it by equipments such as pulleys, chain
block etc. Pay attention that the generator axis should be faced upward in order to install the
blades.
5. Install the blades and cover the pressure pad (300W wind turbine having no pressure pad), then
screw the bolts.
Keep the balance of blades when install them. First, do not screw the bolts too tight, adjusting the
distance between two blades’ tips to be equal after screwing all the bolts. (as shown in the graph
5)

7. Cover the dome.
8. (For 3kw and above 3kw wind turbine) infix the aviation plug on the generator into the socket of
dogvane, and then install the dogvane. Special attention should be paid to the direction of
dogvane. All the five holes must be face-to-face.

Tower is a significant part for the wind turbine generator system (WTGS). Currently, there are two
kinds of tower available on the market for WTGS. One is cable tower, and the other is free stand tower.
Cable tower enjoys the advantage of being installed manually, while the disadvantage lies in taking huge
room, which has an effect on aesthetics. Free stand tower is endowed with the advantages of being
beautiful and firm. However, a crane is essential for installation and maintenance. No matter what kind of
tower available on market now, the expenditure for installation and maintenance would take a large part
in the total cost of purchasing WTGS, which indirectly increases users’ expenditure and postpones the
period of cost recovery. Statistically, in some developed countries, the maintenance expenditure per year
charged by laying down the tower would be that of the tower itself.
Innovative towers developed by Foshan Ouyad Electronic Co.,Ltd are classified into two, namely,
conventional tower and hydraulic tower system. Conventional tower enjoys the advantages of taking
small room and handsome exterior. Foremost, three segments can be inserted into one for transporting
so that the transportation cost will be lessened dramatically. Compared with the conventional tower in
addition to the above advantages, problems such as inconvenient maintenance and large maintenance
expenditure can be solved by the appliance of the hydraulic tower. With the appliance of hydraulic tower
system, tower erection for installation and maintenance can be easily accomplished by one person. The
hydraulic tower system can be applied to wind turbine generator with weight (including generator &
blades) less than 500KGS and swept area less than 50 square meters.
With the appliance of innovative towers, the benefits of investing wind turbine system can be
achieved with a relatively short period, which is favorable to the end users. Therefore, the innovative
tower system developed and manufactured by Foshan Ouyad Electronic Co.,Ltd will be the most
preferred tower recommended by WTGS industry.

【1】 Transportation-friendly
The new tower is designed to have three segments. Thus, the two segments with relatively small
diameter can be inserted into the one with big diameter, which will decrease the cost for limiting the
space. It is validated that the transportation fee is reduced by 2/3 of current tower. Consequently,
the advantage will be much more apparent when shipping by sea.
l Components
【1】 Tower
Tower, composed by three segments with different diameters, is connected with flanges. Bolts are
requisite to connect the different segments. It is wondrously simple to assemble them. The
parameters are shown below,
The additional expenditure for purchasing hydraulic tower system is equal to the installation
cost when installing conventional tower at the first time. There is no other additional
expenditure for future maintenance involved, which will save the cost. Meanwhile, provided
that several sets of towers are purchased, you merely need a set of hydraulic system.

【2】Hydraulic system
Hydraulic system, consisting of hydro-cylinder (Pic 3) and electric hydraulic station (Pic 4) or manual
manuel hydraulic station (Pic 5), is served as the drive for erecting and

1. Batteries should be placed inside buildings under dry and constant temperature. After finalizing
the quantity of batteries in series, it is necessary to have a design to place the batteries,
controller and inverter.
2. Connect the batteries in series. The concrete way is to connect the anode of first battery to
cathode of the second one.
3. Make the joints greased. Install the fuse on the positive electrode of battery. The distance of
conducting wire between batteries and controller should be less than 3m.
4. Suggested battery capacity for various model (as shown in the table 3)

Maintenance
Wind turbine may be operated under extremely harsh environment, or meet various complicated
weather. Therefore, fix- date examination and maintenance are necessary in order to keep the
system operate rightly.
Do the following check every three months:
1. Check the tight wire is too loose or too tight, and adjust them, in particular in initial stage of
installation and post-gale.
2. Check whether or not the wire is damaged or loose. The joints are loose and rusted or not in
order to secure electrical safety.
3. Maintain the batteries following the battery manual.
4. Before storm, it is better to lay down the tower for escaping from unpredictable loss

1. Under initial state, controlling board will indicate “auto” and “turn-on”. When the wind speed
reaches or surpasses 2m/s under this state, wind turbine will trace wind direction automatically.
If the batteries are full or the wind speed is too strong, the turbine will furl automatically until
shutdown.
2. We can also set the windward mode on “manual” and adjusting wind direction by pressing
“forward” or “reverse” the direction. When the wind speed is too strong or the batteries are
charged fully, the turbine will not shut down automatically.
3. When we do not need the operation of wind turbine, you can choose to press the button of
shutdown or turning-off. Then the turbine will automatically face wind.
4. The system will continuously check the batteries’ voltage when the system is under normal
state of generating power. The system will alarm automatically when over voltage or under
voltage. When over voltage, shutdown order will be sent out. The over-voltage alarm is set on
300V, alarm voltage cancellation 280V and under voltage alarm 210V when it leaves factory.
5. The function of vane is to check the real time wind direction. The state will be on “working”
checked by. Under working state, the system will automatically face wind and generate
electricity.
6. The system will continually check battery voltage under normal operation state. When over or
under voltage, the system will alarm automatically and send out the shutdown order.
Note: vane should be installed on the wind turbine system of 5KW and above 5KW, otherwise the
system will not be operated normally.
