Operator Training

Professional training is essential to getting the best performance, safety, and long-term value from solar cleaning equipment. At Solar Clean Robotics UK, we provide comprehensive operator training for the full SolarCleano robotic range, Chemitek solar cleaning chemicals, and QLEEN solar cleaning systems — ensuring operators are confident, competent, and fully supported from day one.

Our training programmes are designed for real-world solar maintenance environments and are delivered by experienced technicians with hands-on industry expertise.

Professional Operator Training for Solar Cleaning Systems

Operating advanced solar cleaning equipment requires more than just technical knowledge — it requires practical understanding, safe working methods, and confidence in real site conditions. Our operator training programmes are built around this principle, combining hands-on instruction, live demonstrations, and practical guidance tailored to your specific equipment and site requirements.

Training covers the full SolarCleano robotic range — including the M1, F1, L1, T1, and E1 — alongside correct use of Chemitek professional solar cleaning products and QLEEN solar cleaning tools and motorised brushes. Each session is structured to ensure operators understand not only how to use the equipment, but why best-practice methods matter for performance, safety, and panel protection.

On-Site or Midlands-Based Training

We offer flexible training delivery options to suit your operation:

  • On-site training at the customer’s solar installation (most common)

  • Training from our UK offices in the Midlands for pre-deployment or refresher sessions

On-site training is typically carried out as part of the robot hand-over process, allowing operators to learn directly on their own solar arrays, terrain, and system layout. This ensures immediate familiarity with real working conditions and maximises confidence from the first clean.

Types of Training we Offer

SolarCleano Robotic Cleaning Systems

Training on the SolarCleano range covers all aspects of safe, efficient, and professional robot operation, including:

  • Correct setup and configuration of each SolarCleano model

  • Best-practice operating techniques to maximise cleaning performance and productivity

  • Safe deployment and retrieval of robots on rooftops and ground-mounted solar arrays

  • Understanding panel layouts, inclinations, terrain conditions, and site-specific challenges

  • Battery handling and charging procedures, including safe storage and charging cycles

  • Routine daily checks and basic maintenance, such as brush inspection, cleaning, and wear identification

  • Use of pure water systems and integration of Chemitek cleaning chemicals with SolarCleano robots, including correct application methods and when chemical use is appropriate

  • Safe working practices around photovoltaic systems, minimising risk to panels, frames, and operators

Chemitek Solar Cleaning Chemicals

Chemitek training focuses on correct chemical use to enhance cleaning performance while protecting panels and the environment, including:

  • Selecting the correct product for different soiling conditions

  • Correct dilution ratios and application methods

  • Integration with robotic and water-fed cleaning systems

  • Safe handling, storage, and environmental considerations

  • Reducing water consumption and re-soiling through best-practice chemical use

QLEEN Solar Cleaning Systems

Training on QLEEN equipment ensures operators can confidently use manual and motorised systems, covering:

  • Safe use of telescopic poles and high-reach cleaning techniques

  • Operation of RotaQLEEN motorised brushes on solar panels

  • Pure-water cleaning principles and system setup

  • Achieving streak-free results while protecting panel coatings

  • Operator posture, fatigue management, and safe working practices

Qleen Vario

Delivered by Experienced Technicians

All training is delivered by highly experienced, qualified technicians with many years of hands-on experience using SolarCleano robots, Chemitek products, and QLEEN systems in live solar cleaning environments.

This practical background ensures training goes beyond manuals and theory — providing real insight into efficient workflows, problem-solving, and safe operation on both commercial rooftops and utility-scale solar farms.

Certification & Documentation

Upon successful completion of the training, operators will receive a Solar Clean Robotics UK Operator Training Certificate, confirming they have been trained in the safe and correct use of the relevant equipment.

Training also includes:

  • Access to user guides and reference documentation

  • Clear operational guidance for ongoing use

  • Support contact details for technical queries post-training

Certification helps demonstrate competence, supports internal compliance, and provides reassurance to site owners and asset managers.

Training as Part of Equipment Handover

For customers purchasing SolarCleano robots, operator training is typically included as part of the hand-over process. This ensures your team is fully prepared to operate the equipment safely and efficiently from day one, with no delays or uncertainty.

Additional refresher training or new-operator sessions can also be arranged as your team or operation grows.
