Single (1 Axis) Tracker Controller
Wind Protection
- Wind protection algorithm adjusts position to a predetermined safe position
- Share wind speed over the network thereby reducing the number of anemometers needed
- Simulate wind speed for easy testing
Limit Stops
- 2 mechanical limit switch inputs per axis to prevent over travel
- 2 programmable soft limits to limit over travel and provide redundancy
- Automatically re-calibrate based on touching lower limit stop
Operation Features
- 0.25 degrees accuracy
- Embedded NREL’s SPA Solar Position Algorithm
- Environment Operating Capabilities (-40 to 70C)
- Auto Calibration feature re-calibrates the tracker each morning
- Environmentally & Electrically certified for world wide deployment
Sensors
- Hall feedback
- Analog Inclinometers 4-20mA, 0-5 VDC , 0-10 VDC & Special Configurations
- (Optional) Solar MEMS
Communications
- Modbus RTU & TCP
- Connect seamlessly with all major HMI/SCADA software (including Wonderware, Intellution, Citect, Allen Bradley)
- Remote monitoring & Control through GRIDview cloud
- Data Logging, Alarming & Messaging
Actuators / Motors
- Brushed & brushless
- Slew or linear actuators
