Position heliostats

Precise positioning at low costs and with low-maintenance operation

The solution

The positioning accuracy of the heliostats in solar tower power plants contributes substantially to the efficiency of the entire system. Particularly high demands are therefore placed on the sensors. Our BML magnetically encoded position and angle measurements system can even handle the tough conditions in desert regions. It operates contactlessly and is therefore very low-maintenance, thereby helping to prevent downtimes.

The features

• Low-wear and low-maintenance thanks to contact-free operation
• Cost-effective installation
• Very high accuracy
