The Forgen wind generator embodies long established high efficiency generator principles, combined with turbine airflow expertise. Low inertia of the carefully balanced all-aluminium rotor assembly enables maximum advantage to be taken of the average weather conditions.

The turbine drive of the permanent magnet generator is widely acknowledged to be the most efficient design. When mounted vertically, it takes advantage of wind from any direction.

Forgen Vertical Axis Wind Turbine with Bracket Mount

All electrical components are encapsulated and the unit is virtually maintenance free. There are no slip rings to cause interference against electrical equipment. The outlet supply cable to the battery cannot become entangled. There are no separate blades and the unit is vibration free and silent in operation. The Forgen 500 is designed as a trickle charger and may be permanently connected to the battery

The Forgen 1000 gives a much higher charge and has been designed for larger multiple battery installations usually associated with boats over 35ft in length or for wall mounting such as the end of a building. The use of a Forgen ensures easy start up after overnight or week long mooring of sailing craft. Both machines can produce in an average 15 knot wind speed either 12 or 23 amp in a 24 hour period (depending on battery condition.) In extreme wind conditions, the turbine is self-regulating and is able to withstand very severe and harsh environments.

The electronic circuitry is also internally protected against overload, neither machine requiring a regulator to be fitted. Parked caravans, electric fence units, sea buoys or other remotely situated electronic equipment are also typical uses for the Forgen. It has already been tried and tested in Antarctica and continued to work under the most extreme conditions
