1.5-Axis PV Solar Trackers – Up to 40% Higher Energy Yield
Rugged, low-maintenance single-axis PV tracker for 12–16 standard modules. Ideal for agricultural, commercial, off-grid, and private open-space applications.
- +30–40 % increase in PV output thanks to automatic sun-tracking
- Wind-resistant up to 40 m/s – automatic emergency position
- For 12 or 16 modules (4–8.5 kWp)
- Complete kit, including control system, sensors, and foundation plan
- Production upon order: 8–14 weeks
Fully automatic & low-maintenance
The control system is based on GPS and astronomical sun position calculations. The tracker operates fully automatically
and is designed for low-maintenance, continuous operation.
The swivel bearings are made of UHMW-PE, a material with very high wear resistance and resistance to aging; they are self-lubricating and maintenance-free for 25 years.
No professional maintenance staff is required; if the equipment malfunctions, replacement parts can be installed on-site in no time.
The drive options we offer feature an IP65 rating for electronic components and dual-layer protection for core components, making them suitable for use in desert and water-based projects.
The structure is made of hot-dip galvanized steel, which offers high strength and good corrosion resistance, and can be installed in coastal areas.
Why the MAXITracker 1.5?
The MAXITracker 1.5 automatically aligns your PV modules with the optimal position of the sun. Thanks to its inclined axis (20°) and precise swivel drive, the system tracks the sun’s path throughout the day and significantly increases energy yield.
