Ballast-Free PV Mounting Anchor for Rooftop Solar Systems

By mechanically fixing the solar mounting structure to the roof substrate, the PV anchor can help reduce or eliminate the need for conventional ballast systems. Its sealing structure is designed to provide a watertight connection while maintaining the functional performance of the roof.

Suitable for various rooftop solar applications, the PV Anchor can be customized according to different roof structures, mounting systems, load requirements, and installation conditions.

Key Features
Ballast-Free Mounting Solution

The PV Anchor provides a mechanical fixing solution for rooftop solar installations, helping reduce the dependence on heavy ballast blocks. This can be particularly useful for roofs where additional structural loading needs to be considered.

Watertight Roof Penetration

The anchor system incorporates a sealing structure around the roof penetration to help prevent water ingress. Proper installation and sealing are essential to maintain the waterproof performance of the roof.

Strong & Reliable Connection

Designed to withstand both tensile and compressive loads, the PV Anchor provides a stable connection between the solar mounting structure and the roof structure.

The final load-bearing capacity should be evaluated according to the roof construction, fixing method, wind load, solar panel configuration, and project requirements.

Suitable for Different Roof Types

The PV Anchor can be developed for use with different roofing systems, including:

Bitumen roofing
EPDM roofing
PVC roofing
Flat roofs
Low-slope roofs
Other compatible roofing systems

Roof compatibility should be confirmed according to the specific roof structure and installation method.

Compact & Lightweight Design

Compared with conventional ballast-based mounting solutions, a mechanically anchored system can reduce the amount of additional weight required on the roof. The compact design also facilitates transportation, handling, and installation.

Easy Installation

The PV Anchor is designed to simplify the installation of solar mounting structures. Depending on the system configuration, it can be combined with mounting rails, brackets, threaded rods, sealing components, and other PV mounting accessories.

Material Options

Depending on the application and environmental requirements, different materials can be considered for the sealing components,
