With even better communication, usability and efficiency, the Windy Boy 3600TL and 5000 TL inverters set new standards. With a modern graphic display, a simplified mounting concept and wireless plant communication using the Bluetooth global standard, the devices are ideally suited to almost every need. The peak efficiency of 97 percent results in optimal yields from small wind turbine systems. The polynomial curve and broad input voltage range provide maximum plant design flexibility. The new generation Windy Boy: an inverter for all turbine types.
