Publish Time: 2024-08-22
The performance requirements of the lead screw motor photovoltaic solution usually include the following aspects:
Precision and accuracy:
Positioning accuracy: The ability to accurately move the photovoltaic panel or related components to the specified position, and the positioning error should be as small as possible. For example, in the angle adjustment of the photovoltaic panel, the required angle must be accurately controlled to ensure that the photovoltaic panel can receive solar energy to the greatest extent, and the positioning accuracy may need to reach the millimeter level or even higher.
Repeat positioning accuracy: The accuracy of repeated positioning to the same position is consistent, which can ensure the stability and reliability of the system. For photovoltaic application scenarios that require frequent position adjustment (such as tracking the movement of the sun), high repeat positioning accuracy is particularly important.
Speed and responsiveness:
Operation speed: The lead screw motor should have a fast enough operating speed to meet the time requirements for component movement or adjustment in the photovoltaic system. For example, when the sun angle changes rapidly, the tracking and adjustment mechanism of the photovoltaic panel needs to respond quickly, which requires the lead screw motor to quickly drive the related components to the new position.
Acceleration and deceleration performance: It has good acceleration and deceleration capabilities, can start and stop smoothly, avoid shock and vibration to the system due to sudden speed changes, affect the stability and life of the photovoltaic equipment, and can also reach the target speed more quickly.
Response time: It responds quickly to the control signal and can act in time according to the instructions of the control system to reduce delays, so as to achieve real-time and accurate adjustment of the position or state of the photovoltaic panel.
Load-bearing capacity:
Static load-bearing capacity: It can stably support and bear the weight of the photovoltaic panel and related accessories, and will not deform, sink or damage in a static state. Photovoltaic panels of different specifications and types have different weights, and the screw motor needs to be selected and designed according to the actual load-bearing requirements.
Dynamic load-bearing capacity: During the movement of the photovoltaic panel, it can withstand dynamic loads caused by factors such as acceleration and vibration, ensuring that the system can operate normally under various working conditions and will not be damaged by overload.
Reliability and durability:
Reliability: Under various environmental conditions of photovoltaic applications (such as outdoor temperature, humidity, dust, wind and rain, etc.), it can work stably and is not prone to failure, ensuring the continuous operation of the photovoltaic system. It has a low failure rate and reduces maintenance and repair costs.
Durability: It can withstand long-term use and frequent movements, mechanical parts are not easy to wear, age or fatigue damage, and the electrical part has stable performance. For example, key components such as the screw thread and the motor winding should have sufficient service life to meet the needs of long-term operation of the photovoltaic system.
Protection level: It is usually necessary to have a certain level of protection, such as dustproof and waterproof, to adapt to the harsh outdoor environmental conditions and prevent dust, moisture, etc. from entering the motor and causing failures.
Energy efficiency and energy saving:
High efficiency: The energy conversion efficiency is high, and the energy loss is low in the process of converting electrical energy into mechanical energy, which can reduce energy waste and improve the energy utilization efficiency of the entire photovoltaic system. For photovoltaic systems that rely on solar power generation, improving energy efficiency helps to reduce the demand for solar energy and increase the overall benefits of the system.
Energy-saving operation: Under partial load or low load conditions, it can also maintain good energy-saving performance and avoid unnecessary energy consumption. For example, when the photovoltaic panel does not need to adjust its position significantly, the screw motor can run at a lower power or enter standby mode to save energy.
Control performance:
Precise control: It can work well with the control system of the photovoltaic system to achieve precise control of motor speed, position, torque and other parameters, meeting the photovoltaic system's fine requirements for various actions and adjustments. Through precise control, the angle adjustment and position movement of photovoltaic panels can be made more accurate and efficient.
Synchronous performance: When multiple screw motors work together (such as synchronous adjustment of large photovoltaic arrays), it has good synchronization performance to ensure the coordinated actions of each motor, avoiding inconsistent positions of photovoltaic panels or abnormal system operation due to asynchrony.
Programmability: Supports different control strategies and operation modes through programming to adapt to different photovoltaic application scenarios and demand changes. For example, different motor operating parameters and control logic can be preset according to different time, weather conditions and other factors.
Environmental adaptability:
Temperature adaptability: In different seasons and climatic conditions, it can work normally in a wide temperature range, whether it is hot summer or cold winter. For example, in a high temperature environment, the heat dissipation performance of the motor should be good to prevent overheating damage; in a low temperature environment, the performance of the motor's lubricating oil and other properties is not affected to ensure normal startup and operation.
Humidity adaptability: For some areas or environments with high humidity, such as the seaside, the screw motor should have a certain moisture-proof and mildew-proof ability to prevent motor failure or performance degradation due to moisture intrusion.
Corrosion resistance: In environments where the motor may be exposed to corrosive substances (such as salt spray at the seaside, chemical gases in industrial environments, etc.), it has corrosion resistance to ensure that the motor casing, parts, etc. are not easily damaged by corrosion.
