LH 1000 Low Head Microhydro Turbines |
The LH1000 uses the same generator as the Stream Engine, however the water turbine component uses a low head propeller design. This enables the machine to produce power from heads of 0.5 meters (2 feet) up to 3 meters (10 feet). At the maximum head, the output is 1 Kw.
The LH 1000 is designed o operate on conjunction with battery-based power systems, storing electrical power for use at times when consumption exceeds generation. A load controller must maintain the batteries, and when fully charged, switches to a diversion load. AC loads require an inverter to convert battery voltage (DC) to residential power (AC).
To gain enough head to operate the LH1000, water is channeled into a sluiceway. The turbine is mounted in a 18cm (7") diameter opening in the sluice bottom, with the draft tube extending to the tailwater below. The water turns the propeller, creating shaft power. This, in turn, powers the generator, producing electricity.
The LH1000 typically operates at 12, 24, 48 or 120 volts. It can be specially wound to operate at 240 volts when necessary. Employing an adjustable, permanent magnet generator and reconnectable wiring, the LH1000 is ideally suited for a wide range of sites.
