Sun tracking solar hot water system by Solar Resource International

I have a tracking system that just keeps sweeping back and forth. The company was out of Phoenix Arizona.
Can I get parts or is there any literature available?
The company was a Div. of United Standard Management Corp.
Also called Sol-R-Beam

Most likely the circuit board

Bob, that may be a tough find or fix. If it is just a timing circuit, there is a company you can find online that sells a cheap one, Altronix. Have you pulled the board to check it out? If something fried out you may be able to spot it and replace or repair it. Or check for bad wiring to it or sensors.

I am looking for manuals or information on the Sol-R-Beam system.  I have gotten a system and am looking for information on setting the system up.

Re: Sun tracking solar hot water system by Solar Resource International

I bought a Solar Resources System in Cincinnati back in 1983.  I have copies of the SC500 Installation Manual, the SC500 Installation Procedure, the SC500 Troubleshooting Guide, the United Standard management Corp Tech Bulletin 84-3, 1-17-84 and the Solar Resources International Installation, Operation and Maintenance Owner's Manual.  If copies are wanted call me at 408-903-3713.  It is my plan to reinstall the entire system.  It has been in storage for about 20 years and I know I will have to improvise.

Richard,

Sorry it took so long.  I will copy all I have and send it to you.  Do you know where I can buy the saddles for mounting the 3/4" copper to the 1¼" aluminum.  I found a source for stainless u-bolts and will make some of the u-bolt shims as I can't find the ones from my original installation in Cincinatti.

I have a system that I am parting out. If interested, call me at 631 944 0878. I am on Long Island, NY.  Robert Gudger

Re: Sun tracking solar hot water system by Solar Resource International

I just picked up a hotwater system from Solar Resources International. I believe I have most of the parts, but would like it if I could get my hands on some manuals. Things like the setup of the tracking systems.... would be a lot easier with manual. I got the stuff from differnt people and they had never hooked up the stuff themselves.

Thanks,

Hello I just bought a sol-R-Beam system. Do you still have parts left from the unit you parted out in 2012? Thanks
