parabolic trough concentrating solar power (csp)

parabolic trough solar concentrators use a parabolic mirror to focus the sunlight to the focal point of the trough along its length. a liquid filled tube is heated at the focal point to harness the suns energy. the tilt angle of the reflecting mirror is important to ensure it is facing the sun and to ensure the liquid filled tube is always kept at the focal point. these trackers require a high degree of positional accuracy in a single axis configuration. as the inclinometer sensor is mounted directly onto the structure it can provide several advantages over shaft encoders and light sensors:

reads angle of structure directly so is not affected by mechanical hysteresis
measures absolute position, including errors introduced by wind loading
works over wide angular range in all lighting conditions

we can al so provide customised designs

based on this product with the aim of im-

proving system integration, or to replace

an existing product with a directly comp-

atible device. our expertise and experien-

ce in this field means we can offer short

development times with right first time

prototypes.

our solar-360 sensor has been designed specifically for this application and can provide accurate, repeatable

and reliable angular position feedback to the tracker control system.

single axis with range up to ±180° and accuracy options of 0.05° or 0.1°.

temperature compensated to maintain accuracy over a wide range of conditions.

rs232, rs485 and can networked output interfaces available.
