Design Description

A multi-part structure made of Magnelis sheet metal, designed for flat roofs, requiring additional ballasting, and not suitable for use with welded structures.

Non-invasive installation, using the appropriate number of ballast blocks, in accordance with the ballast plan.

The system allows the base to be weighted down and the wind deflector to be loaded with ballast at the same time (in areas of the roof particularly susceptible to wind suction).

When installing PV modules in a horizontal configuration, ZET profiles with slotted holes are used as additional components; the modules are mounted to these profiles using clamps and M8 Allen screws.

Non-invasive installation, using the appropriate number of ballast blocks, in accordance with the ballast plan.

The system allows the base to be weighted down and the wind deflector to be loaded with ballast at the same time (in areas of the roof particularly susceptible to wind suction).

At the customer's request, our Technical Department calculates the load-bearing capacity of each installation using this structure for a given roof, as well as the installation method and the number of bases that must be installed.

Installation requires a wind deflector, which reduces the effect of wind on the structure and ensures its rigidity.

How to Assemble the Structure

The structural base is placed on the roof deck and then further weighted down with concrete blocks placed on the ballast platform

Does the design require additional ballast?

Yes

Is it possible to use a hybrid solution (welding + ballast)?

Yes—the option to add additional ballast to the wind vane

1. The installation method for a given type of module may differ from the installation method specified by the PV module manufacturer, which serves as the guideline for proper installation.

2. Weight calculated for an arrangement of three modules in a single row with the maximum dimensions for a given type of structure

3. The specified maximum module size and installation method for a given module type may differ from the installation method specified by the PV module manufacturer, which serves as the guideline for the proper installation method.
