Product catalog summary

Company Overview
Metaloumin, established in 1969, specializes in mounting structures for photovoltaic (PV) panels. Since 2019, the company has focused on designing Single Axis Hydraulic Trackers, completing projects totaling over 63 MW. These trackers can increase energy production by up to 25% compared to fixed installations of the same capacity.

Product Overview: M-TRC-760 Horizontal Single-Axis Electrical Tracker
This product is a horizontal single-axis solar tracker designed to optimize solar energy capture.

Technical Features

Drive Type: Electrical, powered by connection to the main power grid with an AC motor and equipped with a UPS.
Tracking Method: Utilizes an astronomical algorithm.
Range of Motion: -50° to +50°.
Maximum Surface Area: 200m².
Structure: Made of galvanized elements compliant with EN 1461 and EN 10346 standards.
Accessories: Includes solar plastic bearings with stainless steel and bronze components.
Orientation: Supports both portrait and landscape orientations.
Dimension Limits: Flexible table length arrangements based on panel/string configuration.
PV Modules: Supports up to 2 modules in portrait layout or up to 4 in landscape layout, with panel dimensions ranging from 1.2 to 2.5 meters.
Slope Limits: Unlimited east-west slope and up to 8° north-south for typical designs, with up to 15° for special designs.
Foundation: Options include pile ramming, piles in holes filled with concrete, or concrete ballasts.
Wind Load Limits: Vb=33m/s, Terrain Category II.
Snow Load Limits: Sko=1.7kN/m², Snow Zone C.
Operation Conditions: Operates up to 50 km/h at any tracking angle and wind orientation.

System Advantages

AC powered with customer-provided AC circuit (240 VAC).
Slewing drive rated voltage of 24 VDC.
Suitable for any terrain, including extreme slopes.
Daily backtracking to prevent shadow casting between tables.
Short free rotating length for exceptional torsion stability and zero backlash.
Wired communication for full handling and monitoring via the Internet.
Telemetry available through VNC viewer.
Independent movement of each substructure for cleaning and pass-through mode.
Minimal maintenance required, with typical annual system checks.
Electrical drive requires no maintenance.
