Electronic box

 

 
We suggest you attach the electronic box to the galvanized post (installation 
holes pre-drilled) 
 

Step 12: Solar panel connections 

 
The solar panels electrical connections can now be performed. Solar panel 
electrical Connections need to be installed following the electrical code of the 
country you reside in. If you are unfamiliar with the electrical code of your 
country, consult a licensed electrician. 
Note: The "ECO-WORTHY" Solar Tracker moves in all directions throughout 
the day while tracking the sun. Make sure that there is enough slack in the 
solar panels electrical connections to handle the full rotational movements of 
the "ECO-WORTHY" Solar Tracker throughout the day. 
 

 

Step 13: Electronic Connections 

For running solar tracking system properly, firstly we need to choose the right 
power supply. 
How to choose the right power supply for ECO-WORTHY solar tracker 
system? 
Basically, the electronic box for tracking system can work with 8-25V power 
supply, so you just choose the right power supply according to the voltage of 
linear actuator. 
DC12V linear actuator only can be powered by DC12V power supply, 
DC24V linear actuator work with DC24V power supply 
Power supply for off grid solar system: 
You can use the battery bank from your solar system as the power supply for 
solar tracker ( If you plan to set a 12V off grid solar system, you just choose 
12V solar tracker system,    if you are going to set a 24V off grid system, 
choose 24V solar tracker system) 
Power supply for grid tie solar system 
You have to get a separate DC12V or DC24V power supply for this tracking 
system.( which can be a small solar panel, or Gel battery )

 

 

Once the power supply has been properly selected, locate the electronic box 
mounted to the galvanized post. Follow the directions below to power up the 
ECO-WORTHY solar tracker.
