Tracking Systems for Solar Parks

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed specifications and features of LORENTZ solar park tracking systems, emphasizing their efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. These systems are designed to optimize energy yields through robust mechanics and reliable control concepts.
Specifications: The tracking systems are based on the ETATRACK active model, which has been operational worldwide for over a decade. They offer up to 40% additional yield, high reliability, and a short return on investment cycle. The systems are compliant with German and European standards.
Design and Features: The tracking unit is a single-axis system suitable for PV modules, with an elevation range of 90° East-West. The frame and pole are made of hot-dip zinc-coated steel, and the system is designed for high wind speeds and ground-level installation. The control system processes commands from a central control unit, and the drive is a maintenance-free DC linear drive.
Storage and Operating Conditions: The systems operate in ambient temperatures from -25°C to +50°C, with a maximum humidity of 80%. They are suitable for altitudes from -400 m to +3,000 m MSL.
Tracking Units: The document details three models: ETATRACK active 2500-A-30 SP, 2000-A SP, and 1500-A SP, each with different module surface areas and power consumption rates. The systems are designed for concrete foundations, with optional screw and ram foundations.
Spatial Requirements: The document provides examples of spatial requirements for different locations, ensuring optimal yields by avoiding mutual shadowing through optimized tracking movements.
Central Control Concepts: The systems offer various control options, including LCU Master Central Control and Central Control Unit (CCU) 2000, supporting installations from 10 to 2,000 tracking units. Features include sensorless control, low energy consumption, and optional remote maintenance and diagnosis.
