DUAL AXIS HIGH CONCENTRATION SOLAR TRACKER – SALIX HCPV Tracker

Data Sheet

Solar tracker with two axes, specially designed for solar high concentration photovoltaic modules, using triple-junction cells.

This tracker has been developed under an innovative project of R & D, which has been validated and endorsed by the CDTI and the Department of Innovation of the Government of Navarra and the Navarra Industry Association.

The high concentration technology allows obtaining yields through the use of fresnel lenses, which are capable of performing a concentration of 1000 soles, with yields of up to 40%.

The lens is responsible for focusing the solar radiation in the triple-junction photovoltaic cell InGaP-GaInAs-Ge, which is of reduced dimensions.

This technology means that it must be installed on two-axis trackers, having absolute precision so that the module does not suffer deviations of more than 0.1 ° with the sun.

The solar tracker Salix HCPV, have these premises, being the solar tracker of high concentration more reliable in market.

Tracking control with three components. Astronomical preposition with PLC. Exact position with sun radiation by electronic sensor of beam direct. MPP control of solar inverter to detect deviations.

Transmission systems and components. With "tolerance 0" to prevent tolerances of standar mechanical that involving deviations in the solar module.

Solar tracker structure. Calculated for operate up wind of 21 m / sec without undergoing bends or deformations of more than 0.1 °. From this speed, the solar tracker is protected horizontally.

Maximum protection of elements. The switchboards of AC and DC, electric motors, transmission elements and electronic inverters are housed inside the tracker, which is self-ventilated.

Pre-assembly of elements.The switchboards and electronic inverters are mounted and connected in factory, reducing assembly times in the field.

Maximum security installation. Night stand 5 meters high. Sensor theft of solar panels. Opening sensor shaft, where the teams are. Sending signal theft computer terminal or telephone.

Configuration flexibility. Adaptable to any concentration photovoltaic module of market.

Adaptability to ground. As a follower of a single support can be installed regardless of the existing ground inclinations.

Fixing to the ground. Foot of concrete buired. Dimensions according to the terrain. Approximately 5 x 5 x 0.9 meters.

Corrosion protection. Support and head with primer and paint epoxy of 200 microns thick. Steel structure of solar modules in hot galvanized. Screws with dracomet bathroom. Excellent performance in harsh environments.

Easy operation. Electrical panel with AC and DC protection. Emergency stop button and switch of movements for inspection and maintenance.

Monitoring. Scada of remote control, can maneuver the follower from computer terminal.
