Solar Power Unit with Flat-Plate Collector

The training system consists of:
laboratory unit mounted on a platform;
solar collector mounted on a platform;
storage water heater mounted on a platform.
The solar collector devices are mounted on the laboratory unit. The elements of the system are fixed on an aluminium profile frame (mobile mounting platform).

The following equipment is installed on the mobile platform:
pumping unit;
pipeline accessories;
expansion tank;
water meters;
pulse flow meters;
temperature-sensing points (Pt500).
The panels of: thermal energy flow meters (heat meters), thermometers with remote sensors, solar energy unit digital controller are mounted at the front of the frame.
The measuring system includes digital thermometers with 4 remote sensors, digital and analog flow meters and water meters (4), 2 heat meters, 4 mounted water temperature-sensing points, 3 multifunction meters of electric power parameters.
The laboratory bench is completely ready for operation, it’s possible to connect external heating devices and additional modules.
The laboratory bench set includes the following software and methodological support: a set of methodological and technical documentation for teaching staff.
