Tracker installation
RTPs can come in a variety of shapes and sizes. This manual contains the general guidelines for the
installation of trackers on RTPs. We use a fairly generic RTP form factor for this.
Make sure the tracker is not
fully surrounded by metal
parts, as this blocks the
signal.
Protect the tracker by using
the cooler unit's shape if
possible.
Place the tracker as high as
possible on the asset.
Ensure the tracker has a
clear view of the sky.
Do's
Don'ts
Install the tracker as high as possible
On moving parts (lids, doors)
Vertical installation if possible
Close to forklift pick up holes
Clear view on the sky
Under the RTP (bad signal)
Use asset’s cavaties to install the tracker
On the very outside where the tracker might get hit by
other equipment
Preferrabley use bolts and nuts to install the tracker
