Benefits and Advantages
OVER 20% INCREASE IN PRODUCTIVITY
The BW Tracker can increase the production of photovoltaic solar energy by 20% or more, as compared to a fiBWd tilt installation. This increases profit by eliminating the cost of many additional solar modules.
INDEPENDENT CONTROL
Each BW Tracker comes equipped with a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), which uses an astronomical program to control tracker movements. There is no "hunting" for the sun, as the tracker knows where the sun is at any time of the year, for the particular tracker location. The control system also allows remote operations, if so configured.
STURDY, EASY TO INSTALL, LOW POWERR USAGE, AND REDUCED MAINTENANCE
The sturdy construction of the BW Tracker guarantees a long term investment, and the easy installation reduces labor costs. The tracker motors do not run continuously, so use less power (less than 50 kWh/year), and requires less maintenance.
ADAPTS TO CHANGING WEATHER CONDITIONS
The BW Tracker is connected to a meteorology station, which works with the controller. The tracker uses this technology to direct the array into a protective horizontal position in strong winds.
INVERTER FLEXIBILITY
The BW tracker offers complete flexibility in your choice of inverters. Whether you wish to utilize a number of smaller inverters located on the tracker, or large centralized inverters, you have as many options as there are inverters.
10-YEAR WARRANTY ON PARTS AND WORKMANSHIP
The BW tracker is the result of an international partnership with Meca Solar, who initially developed this revolutionary product. The tracker has a proven operational history in demanding conditions. Given the quality of our tracker we provide a 10-year warranty on parts and workmanship.
SECURITY
The size of the BW tracker structure gives the modules passive security. At night the controller directs the array into a horizontal position. The array is more than 2m from the ground, so no modules are easily accessible. Additionally, the modules can be secured with "headless" screws, or other security hardware. Finally, the modules can be connected to an optional anti-theft system that is able to detect and send a message if they are disconnected.
