Different types of Solar Modules cleaning Mechanisms

 There are several types of solar rooftop cleaning mechanisms that are employed to maintain the efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) panels. These methods vary based on their design, technology, and level of automation. Here are the main types: 1. Manual Cleaning Water-Based Cleaning : Workers use hoses, buckets, and brushes to manually remove dust and dirt from solar panels. It is labor-intensive and involves the use of significant amounts of water. Dry Cleaning with Brushes : Manual brushing is done without water, using non-abrasive brushes. It is more economical in areas with water scarcity but requires significant manpower. 2. Automated Robotic Systems Water-Based Robotic Cleaners : Robots designed to spray water and scrub the panels using rotating brushes. These robots usually move automatically across the panels, providing consistent cleaning. Brush-Based Dry Robotic Cleaners : Robotic systems equipped with brushes that sweep dust and dirt without using water. These are ideal for area
