AIR Storage Kit can be used with all Primus Wind Power wind generators (Air X, Silent Air X, Air Breeze, Air30, Air 40) when they are placed in storage or for upcoming storm prepping.
AIR storage kit is used to protect wind generator from weather when placed in storage after original blade and hub have been removed.
AIR Storage Kit includes:
- AIR Blade Hub
- AIR X Marine Nose cone
- Super Lube Multi-Purpose Synthetic Grease with Syncolon (clear)
- Hub Rotor Jam Nut (to secure hub)
- 5/16" short arm hex key (tool for rotor jam nut)
CAUTION - When the AIR turbine is stored outdoors for an extended period, it is critical the nose cone and hub remain in place, as this prevents water infiltration through the shaft/bearing gap and into the turbine body (nacelle).
DANGER - If turbine is stored when the Blade/Hub/Nose Cone Assembly is removed, there is a high probability that water infiltration will occur and the nacelle interior will rust causing damage. This will not be covered under the Primus Wind Power warranty. To avoid this potential issue, Primus Wind Power offers the AIR Storage Kit.
INSTRUCTIONS - When storing your turbine, remove the Blade/Hub/Nose Cone Assembly and store in safe location to not damage blade set. When The Shaft and Face is exposed, apply a liberal amount of synthetic grease to the gap around Shaft and Bearing on the Face of the turbine (this should be performed as a regular maintenance event every 12 months). Next, attach Hub and Jam Nut and tighten using 5/16” hex key (hand tighten). Attach the Nose Cone with position of the Nose Cone Blade opening not lined up with Blade bolt holes to avoid water intrusion through holes in the Hub.
