4.7.2 Connecting the system to the Water Supply
Arrange the M300 system in the following order. Drawings of the recommended
layouts including additional components can be found in the appendix.
1. The y-strainer should be the first item on the upstream supply
line to the turbine. This is in place to filter any debris from passing
through the system. The flow passages inside the turbine may
become blocked if any debris enters the turbine resulting in
reduced power output or total equipment failure.
2. Next in line should be the motorized valve. This is placed
upstream of the turbine and modulates the system power output as
needed.
3. Last in line is the turbine-generator assembly. Ensure the turbine-
generator is securely mounted.
NOTE: All piping and fittings leading to and from the M300 System should
be 2-inch or larger. Pipe between system components can be 1.25-inch
for ease of installation permitted they are short lengths. For all plumbing
avoid sharp bends and long runs of pipe to reduce pressure losses. All
isolation valves used in series with the M300 system should be 2-inch
full port valves or larger. This sizing ensures efficiency of operation by
minimizing pressure losses before and after the turbine.
4.7.3 Mounting and Wiring the Control Panel
The control panel should be mounted in a location that will not flood and
is protected from weather. The control panel should be located within a
maximum 20-feet of the turbine-generator and 10-feet of the battery bank.
Longer distances will result in the need for heavier gauge electrical wire. It is
important that the control panel and battery bank be mounted in locations
that will experience similar temperatures as the charge controller evaluates
atmospheric conditions and adjusts charge rates as needed.
NOTE: All electrical work should be completed by a qualified technician.
1. Securely mount the control panel using hardware.
