APPLICATIONS

Where A60 fits

Application fit depends on site geometry, access, soiling, utilities and the cleaning workflow.

01

Cleaning-schedule planning

Track relative soiling conditions to support evidence-based cleaning decisions.

02

Multi-point site sampling

Deploy sensors at representative locations across large arrays.

03

Low-maintenance monitoring

Optical design without moving parts or frequent sensor-surface cleaning requirements.

MANUFACTURING & QUALITY

Control the product before it reaches the site

Production and quality requirements should be confirmed against the final model configuration and purchase specification.

Integrated manufacturing workflow

Structural components, electrical control, motor systems and final assembly are coordinated around the product design.

PRODUCT FAQ

Frequently asked questions about A60

What does A60 measure?

A60 estimates PV-glass cleanliness or soiling ratio using optical scattering at the sensor surface.

Does it directly measure energy loss?

No. It measures an optical soiling indicator. Energy impact also depends on irradiance, module behavior and system conditions.

How does it communicate?

The standard connection is RS485 Modbus, with optional 4G communication.

Does it need frequent calibration?

The product is designed for installation without on-site calibration. Maintenance and data validation should still follow the operating instructions.
