Description:
The laboratory training system should be designed to be used as a teaching facility for practical laboratory tests.

The training system should consists of:

• Laboratory unit mounted on a platform
• Solar collector mounted on a platform
• Storage water heated mounted on a platform

The solar collector devices must be mounted on the laboratory unit. The elements of the system are fixed on an aluminium profile frame (mobile mounting platform).

The following equipment should be 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 should be mounted at the front of the frame.
The measuring system must include digital thermometers with 4 remote sensors, digital and analog flow meters and water meters (4), 2 heat meters, 4 mounted water temperature-sensing points (Pt500), 3 multifunction meters of electric power parameters.

The laboratory system should be completely ready for operation, it’s possible to connect external heating devices and additional modules.

The laboratory system set should also include the following software and methodological support: a set of methodological and technical documentation for teaching staff.

Experiments to be provided:

1.   The study of the solar power unit
2.   Solar collectors. General characteristics
3.   Mounting and working with the equipment
4.   The study of the solar collector operation
5.   Solar power unit controller
