Module cleaning Systems and Solutions

Airborne dust particles, sticky tree and plant sap, lichen, soot and bird droppings are just a few of the things that can contribute to a build-up of dirt on your panels. Accumulation creates shading and therefore will prevent sunlight reaching the cells. This results in poor system performance, loss of efficiency and a loss of financial return for the owner and investor of solar energy. Various reports mention losses of up to 10% to 25% in electricity generation as a result of dirt. Most of the time modules are not cleaned regularly due to 

1. Unavailability of skilled manpower
2. Non accessibility to panel areas
3. Risk in Climbing high rooftops

Sprinko is water-sprinkler based programmable & automated Module cleaning systems helps module cleaning without getting into any inhibitions, and maximizes production from solar panels. Our system offers state-of-the-art automation, Customised for specific soiling environment. System once installed requires minimal maintenance &  highly useful where the available water is with high impurities. 

Systemis highly scalable and adaptable to any number & type of panels placed under mixed layouts, be it small Bungalow, factory rooftop or large utility scale project . 

The Central unit packaged with various automated facilities like

• To add cleaning agent for soft cleaning
• Water treatment plant to manifest clean water during cleaning
• Angular sprinklers to offer water throw of 2/4/8 meter covering  90 / 180 / 360 degree ensuring optimal usage of sprinklers and water. 
• User friendly micro controller helps programing cleaning schedule for a day.

 It is suggested to operate Sprinko system during night or early morning, when solar panels are relatively cold & moist , for 15 to 25 minutes. Customer are facilitated to set convenient cleaning schedule through micro-controller and allow module cleaning done unattended. 

 •Sprinkler water umbrella ( 1.6m) uses gravitation force and inner pressure ( 2 BAR) to clean the modules

Fully automated cleaning 

Since there is no rubbing, Module PV area is protected from scratches and undue pressure on PV area

Automatic rain sensor for cancelling cleaning cycle during actual raining

Uses 1.75 Ltr of water per module cleaning

Least water wastage  on ground

No risk and threat to human life when modules are installed on height

All Sprinkler system accessory components being special plastic , no regular maintenance is required 

Can be connected to existing water harvesting system 

Module Cleaning can be done on every day basis , hence the generation results are better

 Improved Electricity Generation by 5% to 10%

Jetsons Robotic module cleaning system offers variety of models that supports various needs of the customer. 

Jetsons Robotics has devised new family of Robots which are modular to adjust various Row heights depending on customer site requirements. Current model supports 2M, 4M, 6M without losing any of it's flavor of portability.

Standard robotics system of 2M row height is fixed on movable chassis. The chassis height can be selected based on the Row height requirements of the specific solar project. Entire chassis moves on the Module table and cleans 2-M height in one pass. 

1. Modular Robot offers complete flexibility on the table row height, right from 2-M, 4-M, 6-M. 
2. 2-M cleaning robot is fixed along with Chassis to support 4-M or 6-M length.
3. Robot cleans 2-M height row in one pass. 
4. Robot makes 2 or 3 passes for cleaning 4-M and 6-M row height respectively.
5. Cleaning speed reduces to 1/2 , 1/3 as row height increases to 4-M & 6-M respectively, 
6. Cleaning Robot is manually adjusted for upper or bottom row before cleaning cycle is started. 
7. The chassis can be moved from one table easily. 

1. Since the Robots used in this system is of standard 2M length, customer can use Robotic system for cleaning 2M, 4M, 6M row heights by choosing appropriate chassis. 
2. Even the Solar projects having combination of Row heights can be supported using multiple chassis. 
3. Chassis being light weight, the entire unit is portable from one table to another irrespective of the Row height.
