The unique SoSy D_130 truly is the technological pinnacle of dual-axis tracking systems currently available on the world’s markets.

Designed as the 5th generation of KSG’s main tracker system line it is equipped with a �exible PV mounting surface of up to 131 sq. meters. This improves the overall yield of each investment, signi�cantly reduces the required foundation work and greatly facilitates the handling of materials during the construction phase.

All components used have been tested for decades in numerous projects in the tracker industry, from the icy regions of Canada to the hot desert �elds of Australia. The SAFEGUARD safety management system meets the same requirements as its predecessor SoSy D_60, probably the best and most reliable two-axle tracker on the market. Until now.

This solar altitude diagram depicts the position of the sun a t a n y time during the year.

Our astronomical control unit SolTrk was developed in Germany in 1999 and since then is aknowledged for its strenght and ef�ciency and offers an angular accurancy of up to 0.01 degrees. This high precision is an absolute necessity for applications such as concentrator module technology.Our technology allows the best alignment in all latitudes in North and South emisphere.

The control is fully integrated with the �eld level SCADA and communications protocol and allows for bi-directional data exchange from anywhere in the world.

the concept

The cable’s access points are together at the bottom of each SolTrk, designed as individual PG screwings and marked according to their sonnen_system con�guration.

Each sonnen_system is equipped with its own control unit, so each system can be individually accessed and analysed. Only a supply cable, a feed-in cable and a

communications cable are needed for operation.

This ensures a simple, fast and correct connection. Groupings of up to 30 sonnen_system trackers are possible, and multiple groups can be pooled into large-scale power plants. This makes the costly laying of control wiring redundant.

Safety Concept

Protection

All security features are combined in our unique security concept Protection. A voltage monitoring system that continuously checks the state of charge of the control batteries so that for safety reasons the secure table-position can always be initiated if necessary.

This enables reliable operations, even under extreme conditions, and protects your investment even in the event of storms or power outages.

sonnen_systems are equipped with an extensive array of safety features.

The wind speed indicator consists of a wind sensor and a control unit. These ensure that each sonnen_system automatically moves to the safe table position at strong wind.
