Cleaning at lofty heights - TG hyLIFT GmbH from Gronau has set itself this task. The company has developed the "hyCLEANER black SOLAR" cleaning robot to remove dirt from solar installations. The engineers rely on lightweight, lubricant-free and maintenance-free plastic plain and spherical plain bearings from igus® for the wheels and brush bearings.
Solar and photovoltaic systems provide clean energy generation worldwide. In order for these systems to work efficiently, the solar surfaces must be clean. Particularly in areas where agriculture is practised, they are regularly exposed to pollution from environmental influences during harvesting and ammonia vapours from livestock farming, which reduce the economic efficiency of the surfaces. However, the performance of solar systems operated by private companies is also affected by fine dust and pollen in cities, which cannot be removed by raining. Even localised soiling of individual cells caused by bird droppings or lichen can reduce the efficiency of the entire system due to the series connection, as the weakest module determines the overall output. In figures, this means a loss of 20 to 30 per cent in the worst case. But it is not just the financial loss that is a problem: dirt can even damage the coating and seals, which can lead to total failure.
