MecaSolar - Model MS-1EP - Axis Polar Tracker
From Other Products
This tracker designed by Mecasolar is a single-axis, polar aligned tracker made of modules that can be easily installed. The tracker consists of a series of tilted axes on a north-south line on which the PV panels rotate. All the axes are connected by means of a transmission bar moving an area of up to 7,855 square feet (730 sq m, 114.4 kWp max.) with a single motor. Sun tracking is astronomically controlled. Backtracking can be used as well, which allows higher energy production and increased PR in the installation. With a single controller and motor. Modular and scalable, it comes in units of up to 2.6 kWp and 44 units.

Advantages
This type of tracking generates 30% more energy than systems fixed to the ground.
EASY ASSEMBLY OF MODULES
Thanks to its long experience in the PV industry, Mecasolar has designed a modular structure that can be easily assembled saving time in the installation of PV solar farms.
EASY TRANSPORT
Mecasolar solar trackers are made of pieces that allow easy transport and installation on the ground, which makes logistics simpler.
ROBUST STRUCTURE
Robust structure made from hot-dip galvanised steel that provides corrosion protection and durability.
DIVERSE FOUNDATIONS
The design of the structure allows for the use of different ground foundation systems with or without concrete via foundation screws. The screw system (Mecascrew or similar) reduces assembly time and ground preparation time too. Land levelling, which is not permitted by environmental authorities in certain locations, is not required, which reduces.
ADJUSTABLE TO DIFFERENT PV PANEL TYPES
The simple, modular design of the axes (up to 10 modules per axis, 44 axis x 10 modules = 440 modules) makes it possible to adapt the different PV modules available on the market.
LOW MAINTENANCE AND CONSUMPTION
This system requires low maintenance and involves reduced consumption, which lowers costs and avoids production halts.
Up to 114.4 kWp can be driven by a single motor, thus leading to low energy consumption.
WIND PROTECTION
Active wind protection system including anemometer and vane to determine safest position
