Our Photovoltaics got installed yesterday :) Yeahh!
At the end of the afternoon the last installations of the electrical connections finished, and the photovoltaics were giving 32 Voc at 16:00 in the afternoon :)
We are so looking forward to start testing the panels with our system!
We didn't manage to run the system yesterday, because we had underestimated the time needed to prepare the room (was not used the last 10 years, and we were cleaning for more than 2 hours), and to install the system in the room. The bulky 150 kgs "wardrobe" proved to be too tall to fit from the door! The only solution was to remove the wheels from it!We used jacks to lift it, and Andres and Nikos proved to be really strong!
Our small room, looked even smaller after the tank, the feedpump and all tubes and equipment were placed inside.
We have the feeling that the pearson pump will get too hot in the room, since there is no ventilator or window. We have to think how to tackle this.
The day today will start with flushing the system with demineralised water produced in our lab :)
then finally we will visit the beach to start bringing the seawater. Pyranometer and datalogger have also to be connected, cables do not seem long enough, we have to think where to put them.
