4 FAQs about Solar support rotator

What is a SunSaluter rotator?

What is the SunSaluter? The SunSaluter is a solar panel rotator designed for the developing world. Using only the power of gravity with a water clock, the SunSaluter enables a solar panel to passively follow the sun throughout the day, boosting energy output by 30% and producing four liters of clean drinking water.

How do solar panels rotate?

The solar panels are mounted on the rotating frame, a weight is suspended from one end, and a special waterclock is suspended from the other. As the water empties and the container gets lighter, the panel slowly rotates. The user can set the rate at which the waterclock empties, which controls the SunSaluter's rate of rotation.

How does a SunSaluter work?

The SunSaluter boosts energy output by 30% by keeping a solar panel oriented towards the sun throughout the day. With improved efficiency, fewer solar panels are needed, and the overall cost per watt of solar energy is reduced. Conventional solar trackers use complex electronics which make them more than 30 times as expensive and prone to failure.

Does dual axis solar tracker Mount improve power generation?

The annual power generation of dual axis solar tracker mount is 35%~40% higher than fixed solar mounting system.This operation could be adjusted tilt angle according to the change of solar incidence angle within a year,so as to improve power generation . Item NO.: Dual axis solar tracking can rotate direction of horizontal and vertical.
