Solar Panel Safety Scraper with Rinse Jet – Triumph MK3 Hybrid

Based on the world-renowned Triumph MK3 angled scraper, this custom version has been adapted by Solar Clean Robotics specifically for solar panel cleaning.
We’ve combined a 30° angled Triumph handle with a solar-safe plastic blade and a factory-fitted rinse nozzle, allowing you to apply water or cleaning chemicals directly in front of the scraper edge.

Key Features

• Solar-safe plastic blade – designed to reduce the risk of scratching solar glass when used correctly.
• Integrated rinse jet – pre-mounted nozzle sprays water or chemicals onto the panel as you scrape.
• 30° angled Triumph MK3 head – perfect for accessing awkward areas and using on poles.
• Ergonomic, rubberised handle – comfortable, non-slip grip in wet conditions.
• Fits most extension poles – can be attached to traditional or water-fed poles with a standard cone/adapter.
• Snap-on safety cover – protects the blade during transport and storage.

Why Use a Rinse-Jet Scraper on Solar Panels?

• Loosens stubborn contamination – pre-wetting and chemical application helps soften bird droppings, lichen, sap and baked-on grime.
• Reduces friction – water between the blade and glass allows smoother, more controlled scraping.
• Improves safety – constant rinsing helps flush away particles that could otherwise drag across the surface.
• Speeds up work – spray, scrape and rinse in one motion instead of switching tools.

Typical Applications

• Removing heavy bird fouling from individual solar modules.
• Careful removal of lichen spots after pre-treatment with suitable chemistry.
• Cleaning stubborn adhesive, tape marks or silicone residue from module frames and glass edges.
• Detail work on difficult corners or around mounting hardware where brushes can’t reach effectively.

Technical Details

• Handle: Triumph MK3 Angled, 30° head
• Blade width: 15 cm (6″) plastic safety blade (double-edged, replaceable)
• Nozzle: Pre-mounted jet with short hose tail and push-fit style connection for standard pure-water hose
• Grip: Rubber-coated, ergonomic handle with anti-slip ribs
• Pole compatibility: Fits most traditional extension poles and many water-fed poles via standard cone/adapter
• Cover: Snap-on plastic safety cover (can also be used as a basic squeegee)

Using on Solar Panels – Important Guidance

1. Always test in a small, inconspicuous area first and check manufacturer guidelines for the solar panels.
2. Pre-wet or pre-treat the soiling with pure water or approved solar cleaning chemicals.
3. Keep the nozzle flowing so the surface stays lubricated while scraping.
4. Work with light, controlled pressure – let the blade and chemistry do the work.
5. Regularly rinse the blade edge to remove trapped particles.
