PREAMBLE
Established in the year 1980 with an objective to manufacture Solar Water Heating System. Government of India had several incentive, scheme to Promote the Solar Energy based equipment and the user was benefitted by this Promotional Cash Subsidy available from the Government.

India being the tropical country and during the winter season Solar Energy based heating system has very good market potential. Thus till middle of 1994 Solar Water Heating Systems installation and utilization reached to its peak.

The Solar energy based industry developed and was dependent on Government funding and norms time to time and today when all government funding has been withdrawn the industry’ is self sufficient to market the Product. The product manufactured then in ’80s and developments made and Product of today is much improved with customer satisfaction and acceptability has much improvement.

Range of Product manufactured by us is from 100LPD at 60°C to 5000 LPD at 60°C Thermosyphone type system and from 500 LPD to any required capacity at 60 °C, 70 °C or 80 °C Thermostatic Controlled Forced Flow Systems. Largest System manufactured by us is of 50,000 LPD at 80 °C for Pre-heated boiler feed water.

Total capacity of the system Installed is 13,00,000 Liters Per Day (12000 m2 to 13000m2) in various Capacities, at Hotels, Hospitals, Hostels, Rest Houses, residential bungalows. Industrial Canteen. Pharmaceutical industry. Milk dairies and industries where with hot water requirement for Process heating of boiler feed are in our client list throughout the country


LOCATION
We are located in the western part of the country, from where the bay of CAMBAY is just 45 Kms away and at a distance of 4 Kms from the city of ANAND . Nearly 600 small. Medium and large Industrial Units are located in this area Employing nearly 25000 Employee. Main railway line connecting BOMBAY - AHMEDABAD - DELHI is passing through and to reach to any pan of the country is very easy and convenient. Transporting the goods through railway is also convenient. Road transport main trunk high way No.8 passes through r transportation through road is convenient.

WEATHER
There are three main seasons
Winter
Where the ambient temperature minimum average is 15 °C and maximum average is 32 °C.
Summer 
Minimum ambient average temperature is 24.5 °C and maximum ambient average temperature is 39 °C.

Monsoon

Average rainfall in a four month season is 80 to 100 Cm. It dose not rain continuously and considerations are such that it rains for maximum 30 days in a season. So the wheather is tropical and due to this Solar Energy Equipments are more utilised.

DEVELOPMENTS IN NON - CONVENTIONAL ENERGY DEVICES

Our range of product is from 100 LPD at 60 °C to 5000 LPD at 60 °C Thermosyphon type systems and from 5000 LPD to any capacity requirement at 60 °C, 70 °C and 80 °C Thermostatically controlled force Flow Systems. Our largest system manufactured is 50,000 LPD at 80) °C for preheated boiler feed water requirement. Total capacity of the systems installed is 10,00,000 Litres Per Day in various capacities. Our clients are Hotels, Hostels, Hospitals, Resthouses, Residential individual bunglows, Industrial canteens, Pharmaceutical industries and Milk dairies where hot water required for process heating and boiler feed. We have been installing systems in different distant remote areas in different parts of country.
 
NEW PROJECT DEVELOPMENTS

Our company is developing Heat Pipe Based Solar Systems indigenously with using testing facility at one of the renowned Scientific Research Center at Sardar Patel Renewable Energy Research Institute. Our objective to develop this type of system to reduce the cost of the system, to reduce space requirement of the system and having long life and zero maintenance cost of the system.

Solar Water Heating system with Evacuated tube collector has been developed by us which has 40% higher efficiency compare to Flat Plate collector
 
BRIEF ABOUT THE PRODUCT & WORKING
The collector is Flat Plate Collector where absorber is made from copper tubes and copper sheet and outer box from aluminium extruded sections with aluminum sheet riveted at bottom. The absorbers arc black selective coated sheets which arc soldered by electric heating process on automatic electro heating equipment. Outer box is anodized. We have installed capacity to manufacture 100 Nos of collectors per day. The collectors are tested a all levels by automatic hydraulic testing equipments
Exported Solar Water Heating System to KENYA & SULTNATE OF OMAN.
Manufacturing systems from 100 LPD 100000 LPD.
Domestic systems for individual bunglows are 100 LPD, 150 LPD, 200 LPD, 300 LPD and upto 500 LPD at 60 °C Thermosyphon type.
We have developed system with Heat Exchanger for domestic purpose where Thermic Fluid & Distilled Water is circulated in close loop.
Industrial and process heating systems are of 80 °C / 85 ”C.
Technological support is available by way of guidance from Sardar Patel Renewable Energy Research Institute, where they have the setup for complete testing for performance test and efficiency test for the collector. We have been selected by them for developing Heat Pipe based Solar Water Heating System when technical support shall be available from them Collectors are tested by them and results of which are enclosed herewith.
Market share as on today is 30%.
Typical Solar Air Heating/Drying system are as under
Onion Drying 100 Kg/batch
Solid waste Drier of 300 Kg / batch.
