Solar Flat Roof Mounting Ballast System

Egret Solar is a solar mounting bracket supplier with its own factory, a reliable Chinese supplier, and is now launching a customized Solar Flat Roof Mounting Ballast System that supports custom tilt angles. This solar installation system was originally designed for installation on flat roofs. Still, it can also be installed on open ground. The expansion bolts used for installation on the roof surface do not penetrate the roof's waterproofing layer, meeting the installation requirements of the solar PV module.

The ballast system features Q235 carbon steel that offers excellent value for money and is more cost-effective than traditional aluminum ballast systems. It can be finished with black paint, hot-dip galvanizing, or both. As a flexible ballasted system, it is suitable for most flat roof types, including concrete or fiber cement, making it suitable for industrial and rural self-built homes.

This Ballasted Flat Roof Mounting System requires only on-site assembly of the carbon steel brackets and bolts, eliminating the need for welding. It significantly reduces labor costs and shortens installation time by approximately 33.33%. Furthermore, it allows for flexible module layouts because it is compatible with monocrystalline and polycrystalline photovoltaic modules, among others.

PRODUCT SHOW

The Flat Rooftop Mounting Ballast System consists of core components such as carbon steel brackets, expansion bolts, and bolt kits, offering both an affordable price and high efficiency.

Since it is a ballast solar PV mounting system, it requires counterweights. You can flexibly configure the concrete counterweights according to the local maximum wind speed and snow depth. This ensures optimal wind and snow load resistance. Our brackets have been tested and possess nice bending and torsional resistance, since you don't need to worry about they can't to support the solar PV modules.

The Ballast Solar Flat Roof Installation System features rear legs offering a fixed tilt angle of 5°to 20°, with custom angles available to allow installers to optimize the angle based on the project’s latitude and maximize solar radiation absorption. It is compatible with 30mm to 50mm thick PV modules. Installation is also simple, which just need secure the bracket to the roof with expansion bolts, then tighten the module with the bolt kit. Installation of a single module can be completed in as little as 10 minutes.

Furthermore, as a flexible solar photovoltaic installation ballast system, it supports both horizontal and vertical splicing. Installation does not require damage to the existing roof waterproofing layer, and the components are easy to disassemble, facilitating later maintenance and reducing operating costs.
