Our customers enjoy building things!  Here are some photos of different solar tracker projects built by MTM Scientific, Inc customers.

This Solar Tracker Project uses a DC linear actuator to move the panels. The controller is mounted inside a weatherproof electrical enclosure. The photos are courtesy of Bill F.

This awesome Solar Tracker project is the work of David.  Note the use of a central mirror reflector to increase sunlight on the panels. The panels are moved with a linear actuator.

Here is a view of the shadow block assembly. Also, note how the circuit board was ruggedized with a conformal coating and is mounted in a weather tight enclosure.

This Solar Tracker was built by Rich, who can be seen in the photograph. This extensive project is described in more detail at EcoRenovator.

This Solar Tracker was built by Chuck in the Northeastern, U.S.A.  Note the use of a linear DC actuator for the prime mover. The sun sensors are protected using an inverted test tube (photo insert).

This Solar Tracker is the work of J. Theismann.  Note the fine workmanship on the mechanical details of the tracker assembly.

This Solar Tracker is the work of Dave in Australia.  Note the use of a satellite dish type linear actuator for the prime mover and the efficient mechanical design.

We always enjoy seeing what our customers are building. Please send your Solar Tracker project photos to mtm@mtmscientific.com
