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.

What is a power rail mounting system?

The POWER RAIL mounting system is designed with the professional PV solar installer in mind. The top-clamping rails utilize a single tool with a revolutionary patented RADTM Fastener for faster bolt placement. The unique shape of the RAD provides an anti-rotation feature, locking the bolt in the proper orientation when installed.

What is the Sun approach angle for a ballasted roof mount?

The sun approach angle of the Ballasted Roof Mount system varies depending upon the amount of ballast required for your installation and whether or not Wind Deflectors are utilized. The sun approach angle for most installations will be 17 degrees. The row spacing for this system is 21.97 inches (module to module).

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.

What is the best solar mounting rail?

XR1000 is a heavyweight among solar mounting rails, built to handle extreme climates and spans 12 feet or more for commercial applications. XR100 is the ultimate residential mounting rail. It supports a range of wind and snow conditions, while also maximizing spans. XR10 is a low-profile mounting rail, perfectly matched to regions with light snow.

How do I connect a solar stack module to a pedestal?

Modules should be bonded to the Solar Stack pedestals with the manufacturer approved middle/end clamps. Grounding hardware (as a part of the module clamps) forms secure electrical bonds with both the module and the pedestal, resulting in many parallel grounding paths throughout the system.
