1️⃣ Assess the Roof & Plan the Layout

Check the roof condition and plan the module layout based on available space, solar access, ballast distribution, and project requirements.

2️⃣ Install the EPDM Rubber Mats

Place EPDM mats beneath the mounting bases. They provide an anti-slip surface and help protect the roof waterproofing layer.

3️⃣ Position the Ballast Bases

Place the ballast trays or bases according to the approved layout and check their alignment.

4️⃣ Install the Support Frames

Attach the tilt brackets or triangular supports to the bases using the specified clamps or bolts. Set the required tilt angle, typically around 10°–15° depending on the system design.

5️⃣ Add the Ballast

Place concrete blocks, paving slabs, or other approved ballast into the trays as specified by the structural design.

6️⃣ Install the PV Modules

Place the solar panels on the support structure and secure them with compatible mid clamps and end clamps.

7️⃣ Final Inspection

Check the modules, fasteners, ballast, wiring, and overall structure. Make sure there are no loose components before putting the system into service.

Our standard package is steel pallet for long alu profile, while small alu components will be packed into cartons with plywood pallet.

☆ Simple Structure: The system uses only four main components, making assembly straightforward.

☆ Space-Saving East-West Layout: Panels can be arranged closer together, helping make better use of flat roof space.

☆ ☆ Non-Penetrating Design: Uses ballast instead of roof drilling, helping preserve roof integrity.

Pre-Assembled Components: Pre-assembled ballast frames can reduce installation time and labor on site.

☆ Durable Aluminum: AL6005-T5 aluminum alloy offers a good balance of strength, low weight, and corrosion resistance.

☆ Easy Maintenance: The accessible, modular structure makes inspection and component replacement easier.

Related Certificates & Reports

☆ Strength Analysis Report: System performance can be evaluated based on project-specific conditions such as wind speed and snow load.

☆ Aluminum Quality Certificate: Material documentation is available for AL6005-T5 aluminum alloy.

Q1: Does the system require drilling into the roof?

No. It’s designed as a non-penetrating system, so roof drilling is generally not required. The final installation should follow the approved system design and roof requirements.

Q2: How much ballast is required?

It depends on the project. Factors such as wind speed, building height, roof conditions, panel layout, tilt angle, and local design requirements all affect the required ballast. The final amount should be determined through proper structural and wind-load calculations.

Q3: Can the mounting angle be customized?

Yes, depending on the system configuration. Different tilt angles may be available to meet the project's energy and structural requirements.

Q4: Is the system suitable for high-wind areas?

Yes, when properly engineered for the site conditions. The required ballast and structural configuration should be determined through project-specific wind-load calculations.
