Table 1: Operating Parameters 

 
* When using wind speed feedback, the frequency range by factory setting is 5-
200Hz; contact factory for different range shifting.  
 
** The over current protection fuses shall be sized depending on the 
generator/alternator short circuit current, this value shall be determined by the 
generator/Alternator supplier. 
Fuses have to trip by generator when embedded crowbar is activated.  
PVI-7200-W-I and PVI-4000-W-I are equipped respectively with 15A and 6A fuses 
by factory. 
 
*** Limited by the maximum continuous output current (20Adc)
