DESCRIPTION
Kolchar S2 is a Cleaning-Robots from SolarACM. It is built for Cleaning, Inspection.
The Kolchar S2 is SolarACM's autonomous cleaning and inspection robot for the operation and maintenance of mid- to large-size solar power plants. It travels along rows of PV panels and cleans them without water, carrying its own solar panel and rechargeable lithium battery so it can run self-sustaining without external power, and while it cleans it scans the panels to detect hot spots, cutting time-consuming manual inspection. A dual-motor drivetrain with balanced weight and power distribution helps it climb slopes and cross small obstacles and avoids driving-wheel deadlock, and the brush drive is separate from the travel drive so brush speed and travel speed can be tuned independently to the type and level of soiling. Robots act as sensing nodes on a wireless mesh network; staff can trigger on-demand cleaning or inspection and monitor the fleet from a computer, tablet or phone over LAN or cellular links, and the robot can work with optional soiling-detection and weather-monitoring stations to optimise its cleaning schedule. SolarACM reports Kolchar S2 robots deployed at a CGN 50 MW solar plant in Haining, China.
