Suppl y Chai n Ef f i ci ency Super i or Syst em Lower Cost

ROBUST DESIGN
+ Designed and tested to withstand 105mph winds as standard and up to 150mph for high
wind areas.
+ Sturdy structure to prevent panel fexing
+ Bearings and pivots resist wear with little to no maintenance
+ Rotationally Balanced structure
SOLAR FIELD FLEXIBILITY
+ Tracker design accommodates terrain undulations and grades of up to 5.
+ Facilitates non-rectilinear layouts for effective land use
+ Single tracker blocks up to 600kW
+ East to West auto tracking with 10/15 degree module tilt option
LOW POWER CONSUMPTION
+ Low power consumption maximizes system output
+ Tracker motor can be powered from the solar array, ac grid power, or battery (charged by
designated solar panel)
WIRELESS SYSTEM CONTROL
+ Zigbee protocol wireless communication reduces trenching and material costs
CONSTRUCTIBILITY
+ Low overall part count.
+ Factory pre-assembly of sub-components reduces feld labor and overall cost
+ No feld welding simplifes feld install
+ Field tolerances support rapid deployment
FULLY INTEGRATED BLOCKS
+ Available as tracker only or fully integrated blocks with piers, custom cable harnesses,
combiner boxes, and DC home run cable.
+ Integrated blocks facilitate supply chain effciency, transaction effciency, and logistics
benefts
TURNKEY OPTIONS
+ Tracker available as equipment only or fully installed with a guaranteed total installed
price.
+ System design and engineering services available
START-UP & CONTROL
+ Control electronics with integrated GPS self-calibrate upon startup
+ Remote monitoring options available, network connectivity
+ Full onsite support during construction, commissioning and startup
