Kipp & Zonen - Model SOLYS2 - Sun Tracker
From Instruments - Solar - Solar Radiation
Benefits
No internal clock drift
SOLYS2 does not suffer from internal clock drift because the time is regularly updated by the GPS receiver. If the tracker is correctly leveled and aligned, and mounted on a solid and stable support, it will continue to point accurately. An optional sun sensor is available for active tracking, to correct for motion in a support affected by changing environmental conditions.
Easy to set-up
An advance over conventional sun trackers is the integrated GPS receiver to automatically configure location and time data upon installation. SOLYS2 does not require a computer and software for setup. Leveling is easily checked using the integrated bubble level on top.
Configure as a complete set-up
With the optional top mounting plate and shading assembly SOLYS2 can be configured as a complete solar monitoring station with up to three ventilated Kipp & Zonen radiometers. A large range of mounting kits is available for direct solar radiation instruments.
