Safety controller makes 'light' work at solar panel manufacturer

摘要

Safety controllers supplied by Omron are helping one of Spain's leading solar panel manufacturers to ensure the safety of its operators. Spain enjoys more hours of sunshine than almost any other European country, so it's hardly surprising that it is one of the leaders in the development, manufacture and installation of photovoltaic energy systems. These generate electricity from sunlight, using solar panels of photovoltaic cells, and are increasingly used as a source of renewable energy, especially for newly built houses, offices and factories. Helios Energy Europe (Heliene) is one of Spain's leading manufacturers of high-power (200W to 250W) photovoltaic modules, which are used mainly by industrial companies and for generating electricity on a commercial scale. The company has a reputation for making high quality and innovative products that are both efficient and competitively priced. To a large extent, Heliene's reputation derives from its customised production lines which are highly automated to optimise productivity.
