Measurement technology excel in this industry due to durable, long-lasting,
and climate-resistant technology.
for sun-tracking systems reliable measurement technologies for position
Many years of experience have provided
detection photovoltaic modules, solar mirrors and
parabolic modules.
n solar-thermal power plants, sensors are used for precise measurement of angle
and position to enable the system to capture the maximum amount of sunlight. Benefits of sun-tracking
IThe downstream control system receives the required feedback of position from measurement technology:
the sensors and then adjusts the actual value to the corresponding setpoint. The
required angle (or set point) is stored in the controller depending on the time of day • Optimal efficiency thanks to high repeatability
and consequently the solar altitude angle. The collectors can assume any position • Wear-free and low-maintenance
and consequently follow sun movement ideally. Instrotech, instrumentation and • Simple and inexpensive mounting
process control specialists representing SIKO locally, proudly offer SIKO sensors that • Climate-resistant (UV, -40...85 °C)
• Incremental or absolute
• Open or integrated
• Absolute accuracy up to 0,05°
SIKO’s sun-tracking products include SIKO
translation module ASA510H, SIKO inclinometer
IK360, SIKO Magnetic sensors MSA501 and
MSK5000. SIKO is a system supplier in position
detection, working with customers to provide
customer-specific solutions, and ensuring best
efficiency at low process costs.
