Ever wondered what keeps the solar panels in place? Or how the solar panel stays safe from the gusty winds and heavy downpour? Here comes the role of Solar module mounting structures. You can walk through this blog to learn more about these structures and how KCP Solar can help you have the best solar module for maximum benefit.
What Are Module Mounting Structures?
Module mounting structures are the backbone of solar panels. These structures are the frames that hold the solar system in place. They hold the panels firmly, strong enough to withstand every natural and man-made damage.
Types of Mounting Structures We Offer
At KCP Solar, we offer various Solar module mounting structures:
- Rooftop-mounted systems
They are the popular mounting systems for homes and businesses that need roof penetrations. They blend in very well with the building architecture, giving it an integrated appearance.
- Ground-mounted solar system
These Solar panel mounting systems are installed in open spaces and render optimal solar lighting. They allow flexibility in operation and are more accessible for routine maintenance.
- Pole-mounted solar systems.
Poles are erected from the ground to support this type of solar installation. They allow seasonal adjustments, thereby producing maximum solar energy throughout the year.
- Floating solar systems
Also known as photovoltaics, they are placed on bodies of water, such as lakes or ponds. Evaporation minimisation and enhanced efficiency are the two significant benefits of such mounting systems.
Materials & Coating Options
The choice of mounting material and coating options can increase or decrease the panel efficiency. Carbon steel, aluminium alloy, and stainless steel offer the best material options for Rooftop solar mounting solutions.
Carbon steel
Due to its high strength and rigidity, it can withstand heavy loads while maintaining the panel’s position.
Aluminium alloy
These form a light-weight mounting structure and simplify the transportation and installation process.
Stainless steel
Their higher resistance to environmental conditions makes them ideal supporting structures for extreme weather
The types of coating include:
- Anodised coating.
- Powder coating
- Galvanized coating
- Galvalume coating
Design & Engineering Capabilities
As one of the reputed Solar structure suppliers in Tamil Nadu, we use galvanised steel mounting structures that can withstand the strongest forces. Our engineers take into account building location, building height, roof tilt, etc., to chalk out the best mounting structure for you. Additionally, critical design parameters, such as dynamic loads and shading constraints, are also taken into account during the design process.
Installation Support & Services
The installation process starts with adjusting and securing the stanchions with anchors. Wherever needed, sealant is used to prevent leakage. Next, rails are attached to the stanchions with bolts. The rails are the primary support for the panels, maintaining the integrity of the system. Lastly, the panels are placed onto the rails and secured with clamps and bolts.
Our experts ensure that you get the maximum benefit from the panels and facilitate smooth after-sales operations as well. Our support services are prompt and provide you with peace of mind, even years after installation.
