Valmont Solar promotes its 2 tracker models: Convert-1P and Convert-2P. Convert-1P features simple and robust table structure design. The trackers are compatible with various PV module types, including monofacial and bifacial modules, offering flexibility and adaptability to different project requirements. With a maximum tracking error of ±2° and a rotation angle of up to ±55° (up to 60°), the trackers effectively capture sunlight and generate higher yields compared to fixed-tilt systems.

Another tracker is the Convert-2P single-axis tracker; this is an ideal solution for utility-scale solar projects. It features horizontal, balanced single-axis tracking technology with independently driven rows and backtracking. They are compatible with various PV module types, adaptable to monofacial and bifacial modules.

Both the trackers have a fully configurable ground cover ratio, accommodating a typical range from 25% to 50%. They can operate on slopes up to 7% in the north-south direction, with extended options available. The trackers from Valmont come with a warranty of 10 years on structural components and 5 years on motors and electronic components, with an extended warranty available.
