600W Racing hydro generator

Name: 600W Racing hydro generator
Brand: Watt & sea

This hydrogenerator will enable you to sail with positive energy and recharge your marine batteries , for use at anchor. Its efficiency surpasses that of wind turbines and solar panels used on boats.

WATT & SEA - RACING - REVOLUTIONIZING ONBOARD ENERGY MANAGEMENT

A must-have in ocean racing, Racing hydrogenerators have revolutionized onboard energy management. Fitted with a variable-pitch propeller controlled electronically by a hydraulic micro-pump, their drag is minimal and energy efficiency optimized over a speed range of 5 to 30 knots . The Racing 600W-610 mm hydrogenerator is equipped with a hydraulic pump for variable pitch servoing.


	TRANSOM MOUNTING Watt&Sea Racing hydrogenerators are usually mounted directly on the transom of sailboats using the supplied mounting kit . They are raised and lowered in the same way as a dinghy rudder. As the charging power is very high, this allows the unit to be raised when the batteries are fully charged. Maneuvering is facilitated by the top-of-the-range fittings supplied: an Antal low-friction ring multiplies the effort, and a Harken cleat holds the unit in position.

CONVERTER The converter is equipped with a Bluetooth chip enabling you to read out charge data, various technical information and, if necessary, adjust voltages directly on your smartphone. Max. power 600 W 12 V / 24 V autodetection Solar input 8-50 V / 14 A

	VARIABLE-PITCH PROPELLER The automatic variable-pitch propeller allows operation over a wide speed range from 5 to 30 knots with minimum drag . The blades are fully feathered just before launching, at the flick of a switch on the pump. Drag and effort are greatly reduced, making the immersion phase easier, even at high speeds.
