2-axis solar tracker for 16 panels — Belgian-built

This dual-axis solar tracker accommodates 16 photovoltaic panels and belongs to the high-end residential and SME range from Wattuneed. Designed, assembled and programmed in our Andrimont workshops (Liège province, Belgium), it represents more than 15 years of continuous experience in solar tracker manufacturing — our first trackers, installed in 2010, are still in service today.

Why a tracker instead of a fixed array?

A 2-axis solar tracker continuously orients the panels toward the sun, in both azimuth and elevation. Over the year, this means +25% production versus a south-facing fixed array, and up to +40% versus an east or west orientation. For self-consumption installations, the benefit is even sharper: the production curve broadens to early-morning and late-afternoon hours, when fixed arrays no longer produce.

Cloud control — the Wattuneed difference

Where Chinese trackers are "black box" products, every Wattuneed tracker is a node connected to our AWS IoT backend. You access it from a browser, anywhere, to:

• See real-time position and status (azimuth, elevation, motor currents, encoders)
• Flatten or vertical the tracker in one click (events, cleaning, snow)
• Configure weather rules (preventive flattening on forecast wind threshold)
• Trigger storm mode manually or automatically
• Receive alerts on mechanical or electrical anomalies
• Manage a whole fleet from a single dashboard (municipal management, multi-site)

Proven mechanics

Central mast architecture with azimuth slewdrive and tilt reducer, hot-dip galvanized steel structure. Default flat layout 85° and upright 20°, configurable per site. Independent left/right software end-stops, 15° granularity bridging via hourly limit table. Foundation by concrete block or screw piles depending on ground type.

Typical use cases for this format

The most versatile format in the range. Particularly suited to installations where energy autonomy and peak production matter more than upfront cost. Often installed to replace an unfavourable roof orientation, or for sites without usable roof space.

Warranty & support

Manufacturer warranty on mechanics and electronics. After-sales service handled by our Andrimont workshop, with 24h responsiveness on critical parts. Built-in predictive maintenance: telemetry detects anomalies before breakdown. No European manufacturer can show an equivalent track record in solar tracking.

Order conditions

Made to order. Indicative lead time: 6 to 10 weeks depending on component availability and format. Systematic preliminary technical study (wind, ground, exposure, grid connection). Installation by our teams or your usual installer with our support. Contact us for a tailored quote.
