Passive Solar Panel Tracking

The sun s heat moves liquid from side to side allowing gravity to turn the track rack and follow the sun.

Passive solar panel tracking.

The zomeworks passive solar tracking mounting system boosts efficiency and performance. Passive solar tracker for photovoltaic modules. The passive solar tracker is installed facing due to the south and inclined to the horizon. Active trackers such as wattsun track the sun from east to west using electronic sensors and motor or actuator drives.

Passive solar tracking having the maximum amount of absorber area directly facing the sun causes superior solar collector performance. Strong design and construction. Moving through 90 degrees of. This action allows gravity alone to turn the.

What is impressive about the solar tracker is in the bundle of qualities installers. The first is the fixed tilted mode in which photovoltaic modules are installed facing due to the south. Since 1980 more than 19 000 zomeworks single axis trackers have been installed in different. The second mode is the passive solar tracking mode in which solar photovoltaic modules are mounted on a passive solar tracker.

During partly cloudy conditions the tracker fixes on the brightest area of the sky capturing the maximum amount of sunlight available. The passive solar tracker can rotate from east to west to follow the apparent daily movement of the sun. The zomeworks trackers are polar and single axis type.
