Solar Panel Automated Cleaning Systems for Large Spaces: Revolutionizing Maintenance Efficiency

In the rapidly evolving renewable energy sector, solar panel efficiency is paramount. Dust accumulation, environmental pollutants, and operational challenges in harsh environments can degrade photovoltaic performance by up to 65%. The Automatic Solar Panel Cleaning Machine emerges as a groundbreaking solution, combining dry-sweep technology, intelligent automation, and robust engineering to address these pain points. Designed for large-scale solar farms in deserts, urban areas, and high-pollution zones, this system redefines maintenance protocols while eliminating water dependency and human safety risks.

Core Product Features

1. Dry-Sweep Technology

  • Utilizes ultra-flexible modified nylon spiral brushes (PA610 material) rotating at 60–120 RPM to achieve >99% single-pass cleaning efficiency.
  • Zero water consumption in standard mode (optional water-sweep customization available).
  • Non-abrasive design prevents glass surface scratches, extending panel lifespan.

2. Autonomous Operation

  • 24V/16Ah battery powers 55W panels, supporting continuous operation in temperatures from -30°C to 70°C.
  • IP65-rated components withstand sandstorms, rain, and extreme weather.
  • 12m/min walking speed with ≤22° obstacle-crossing capability for complex terrains.

3. Intelligent Management System

  • Remote control via IoT platform + mobile app, enabling real-time monitoring and scheduling.
  • Self-cleaning mode activates post-task to remove residual dust from brushes.
  • Predictive maintenance algorithms generate automated work reports and fault diagnostics.
