In March 2026, Suzhou, with the accelerated development of the global new energy industry, the scale and cluster layout of photovoltaic power plants continue to advance. The core operation and maintenance link of photovoltaic module cleaning has long faced industry pain points such as low manual efficiency, high operational risks, high costs, and non-standard cleaning, becoming a key bottleneck restricting the improvement of photovoltaic power plant power generation efficiency.

Recently, LAILX, a local high-end intelligent equipment enterprise in Suzhou, officially released the new generation of photovoltaic cleaning drone H233. With its hardcore technology strength, efficient operational performance, and full scene adaptability, it fills the market gap for large-scale industrial photovoltaic cleaning drones in China, providing a new solution for intelligent, standardized, and safe operation and maintenance of photovoltaic power plants, and helping the transformation and upgrading of the new energy operation and maintenance industry.

As a high-tech enterprise deeply engaged in the field of photovoltaic testing and intelligent operation and maintenance equipment, Suzhou LAILX has focused on the research and development of photovoltaic power station full life cycle operation and maintenance technology for many years. Relying on a professional R&D team and rich industry practical experience, it has created a series of high-end equipment that is suitable for the needs of the photovoltaic industry. Its products cover multiple fields such as photovoltaic testing, intelligent cleaning, and power station operation and maintenance. With stable performance and high-quality services, it has accumulated a good reputation and a wide customer base in the domestic photovoltaic industry. The H233 photovoltaic cleaning drone launched this time is a flagship product developed by the enterprise after nearly two years of research and development. It integrates low altitude flight technology, intelligent control technology, high-pressure cleaning technology, and safety protection technology, tailored to the pain points of photovoltaic power plant operation and maintenance, and comprehensively breaks through many limitations of traditional cleaning modes.

According to the person in charge of technology research and development at LAILX, the H233 photovoltaic cleaning drone adopts an industrial grade four axis flight platform, with a high-strength carbon fiber body material that combines lightweight and high durability. It has a takeoff weight of 120kg and has super strong load capacity. It is equipped with a 50L large capacity embedded water tank, paired with a dual impeller high-pressure water pump, with a water pump flow rate of 0-40L/min. It is equipped with an LX360SX high-pressure 360 ° circulation nozzle, and the cleaning coverage range can reach 2-5 meters, with a single operation efficiency far exceeding traditional manual labor. In terms of core technical parameters, the drone has a cleaning efficiency of up to 2 hours to clean 1MW photovoltaic modules, and the daily cleaning capacity of a single machine can reach 8MW, which is more than 20 times the efficiency of traditional manual cleaning. It significantly shortens the cleaning cycle of the power plant and improves operation and maintenance efficiency. At the same time, the equipment adopts RTK centimeter level precise positioning technology, with hover accuracy controlled at ± 2cm and a flight radius of up to 2km. It supports fully intelligent operation modes such as custom route planning, automatic cruise control, breakpoint continuation, and automatic return, without the need for manual full process control, greatly reducing manpower input.

In terms of safety performance, the H233 photovoltaic cleaning drone is equipped with a three eye fisheye visual obstacle avoidance system, which integrates two black and white fisheye cameras and FPV cameras, and cooperates with radar to achieve 360 ° all-round safety obstacle avoidance. It can effectively avoid risks such as photovoltaic brackets, cables, and obstacles, and is suitable for various complex scenarios such as rooftop photovoltaics, mountain photovoltaics, surface photovoltaics, and large ground power stations. The maximum wind resistance capacity of the equipment is 6m/s, and it can operate stably in an environment temperature of 0-40 ℃, adapting to the operation and maintenance needs of photovoltaic power plants in different regions and climatic conditions. In addition, the device supports optional mobile charging stations, which can complete fast charging in 10-15 minutes and have a cycle life of up to 45 minutes. With the breakpoint continuation function, it can achieve continuous and uninterrupted operation of large power plants, further improving operation and maintenance efficiency.

Traditional photovoltaic cleaning relies heavily on manual climbing, water truck washing, and other methods, which not only have low operational efficiency and a daily cleaning capacity of less than 0.4MW per person, but also pose major safety hazards such as high-altitude falling and electric shock. At the same time, water resources are seriously wasted, and the cleaning effect is uneven, which can easily lead to problems such as missed cleaning and incomplete cleaning. Long term accumulation of dust, bird droppings, sand and dust stains can cause a decrease in the transmittance of photovoltaic modules, a decrease in power generation efficiency of 12% -18%, and seriously affect power plant revenue. The emergence of the LAILX H233 photovoltaic cleaning drone has completely overturned the traditional cleaning mode, achieving a safe operation mode of "human-machine separation", completely eliminating the risk of high-altitude operations, and saving more than 70% water compared to traditional water truck cleaning, making it green and environmentally friendly. Through actual testing, it has been found that the photovoltaic modules cleaned by the drone can restore a transmittance of over 98%, significantly improve power generation efficiency, effectively extend the service life of the modules, and create higher economic benefits for the power station.

The official release of the LAILX H233 photovoltaic cleaning drone is not only an important achievement of enterprise technological innovation, but also a typical example of the deep integration of Suzhou's low altitude economy and new energy industry. As a representative enterprise in the field of intelligent manufacturing in Suzhou, LAILX will continue to deeply cultivate the field of photovoltaic intelligent operation and maintenance, with technological innovation as the core driving force, continuously optimize product performance, expand application scenarios, help photovoltaic power plants across the country achieve efficient, safe, and low-carbon operation and maintenance, promote high-quality development of the new energy industry, and contribute local intelligent equipment strength to achieve global carbon neutrality goals.
