Trapezoidal sheet roofs provide specific problems for mounting PV modules. Key is the sheet roof thickness and weatherproofing after securing guide rail and fixing bolts are installed.

Solution

PV-ezRack Trapezoidal is suitable for fixing frame modules onto all common trapezoidal sheet roofs with thicknesses of 0.4mm and at angles of 10° and above. It consists of a short guide rail and can be installed on raised beads that are as little as just 20mm wide thanks to its mounting form. The system material consists of weatherproof and corrosion resistant anodised aluminium rails. The EVA coating on the underside of the system and three pre-drilled fixing holes guarantee fully rainproof mounting and an optimally high load capacity. Depending on the thickness of the sheet roof, stainless steel screws with special cutter heads can be used to enable the system to be screwed in without chipping.

Applications

Trapezoidal sheet roof mounting system.

Platform

The system, which is supplied in its finished pre-assembled form, also comes with Clenergy's patented Z-module clips that can be simply clipped on from above. The small number of components that come with the system enables it to be rapidly mounted

Availability

June 2012 onwards.
