4 FAQs about Plc photovoltaic panel sun tracking system

Can a PLC controlled PV panel track the Sun along both axes?

In the present study, a PLC controlled PV panel system which could track the sun along both axes was designed and implemented. In the system, the slope angles of the sun were calculated in a 1-year time period, every month, day and at every hour in a day.

Why should you use Siemens plc for automatic solar tracking?

CPU and the programming tools allow users to design autonomous industrial processes and solve automation problems. Based on this specific application and its user-friendly programming tool and troubleshooting solutions, Siemens' PLC hardware and software were found to be the right fit for the automatic solar tracking application in this project.

What is the payload of a solar photovoltaic panel?

Payloads can be photovoltaic cells, reflectors, lenses or other optical devices. This tracker circuit finds the sun at dawn, follows the sun during the day, and resets for the next day. Here the payload is a Solar Photo Voltaic Panel.

Can high-bit analog modules be used in sun-tracking systems of PV panels?

The systems which were implemented in this study can easily be used in the sun-tracking systems of the PV panels. However, when it is considered to increase the sensitivity of the tracking system, it would be more feasible to use high-bit analog modules.
