What is a power rail PV module mounting system?

The PV module mounting system engineered to reduce installation costs and provide maximum strength for parallel-to-roof, tilt up, or open structure mounting applications. The POWER RAIL mounting system is designed with the professional PV solar installer in mind.

How do you attach a PV module to a rail?

Module Clamp: Secures the PV module to the rail. Use four clamps for each Ballast Tray, two on north and south two Ballast Trays. Multiple sizes available depending on thickness of PV module. Wind Deflector: Joins Ballast Trays together into a continuous structural member. Distributes and reduces loading on roof structure.

How do you install a PV array on a roof?

Note: the PV array should not be installed closer than 500mm to the perimeter of the roof including ridge line and eaves (unless verified by a professional engineer). Attach the clamp and tighten the screw to 16 N.m using a 5mm Allen key or drill bit to roof per as planed plan position.

What are the best practices for Solar Roof mounting?

Best practices in the construction of solar roof mounting systems are critical to ensure the safety, efficiency, and durability of the installation. Effective planning is the first step toward a successful installation. This includes:

How do I choose a solar panel mounting system?

Whether it’s a flat commercial rooftop or a pitched residential roof, the material—be it metal, tile, or asphalt—will dictate the appropriate mounting system. Solar Panel Specifications: The size, weight, and configuration of the solar panels must be compatible with the mounting system to ensure a secure installation.

How do I choose the right Solar Roof mounting system?

The selection of the right solar roof mounting system hinges on several critical factors: Roof Type and Material: Different roofs require different mounting solutions. Whether it’s a flat commercial rooftop or a pitched residential roof, the material—be it metal, tile, or asphalt—will dictate the appropriate mounting system.
