Compressors for solar parks

Compressed air for pneumatic solar trackers in solar parks

Solar parks are now large-scale energy plants. To maximise energy yield, solar trackers are used to align the solar modules with the sun. In pneumatic systems, compressed air drives the actuators.

These applications require a reliable compressed air supply that operates stably both continuously and in intermittent operation. Depending on the size of the plant, a correspondingly high flow rate may also be required.

Compressors for solar parks must also be robust, low-maintenance and suitable for harsh environments. It must be ensured that the compressors in solar parks start reliably even when temperatures and weather conditions change.

Oil-free compressors from Dürr Technik are ideal for such requirements. They operate 24/7 in S1 mode, but are just as reliable in intermittent operation with frequent start-stop cycles. The oil-free technology reduces maintenance requirements to a minimum and ensures clean compressed air. A robust design and various IP protection ratings ensure safe operation even in dusty, damp, hot or cold conditions.

We can assist you with specifying and purchasing the right compressor for your solar park.
