The reflector is also a key part of the parabolic trough collector, Vicot makes it with quality glass at high shape precision with silver coating for excellent reflectivity, and 6 different layers in total, as shown in next diagram, insures high reflectivity, durable life time and strength.

• Made of high quality glasses with silver coating
• Durable, with the life expectancy available in over 20 years.
• Free from hailstone damage.
• Mirror reflectivity ≥ 93.8%.
• Strength test: 1cm-diameter steel ball falling from high up.

Notes: The solar energy receiver unit is 4.29m, one slewing drive is available for no more than 16 receiver units in each solar collector row (heat collector reflective area: 180m²). The number of solar collector rows can be increased according to the load and site condition of the project and the collector units shall be mounted in even numbers.
