Galvanized steel frame for solar panels

Alternative energy sources allow us to move with the times and protect the Earth from harmful effects. Solar rays have long been successfully used throughout the world to provide domestic and industrial needs. That’s why the demand for solar panel frames in solar energy projects is constantly increasing. The method of generating electricity from renewable energy sources allows for significant savings, especially if the system area is large. In addition, if you approach the installation issue responsibly and choose a galvanized profile as a basis, such a structure will last for decades in good condition.

As a rule, solar panel manufacturers do not manufacture mounting systems and frames for solar panels. Therefore, in this regard, you should look for a reliable team that will satisfy all your needs and do the job flawlessly. It is on this that the results of your project depend. Therefore, responsible customers are increasingly choosing structures made from thin-walled galvanized profiles to install solar panels on their sites.

Design options for solar stations and their features

In order to not have problems with the stable operation of your station in the future, it is necessary to determine which type of frame is most suitable for you, which placement is roof or ground, what angle of inclination of the panels will be most effective and many other aspects that the specialists of «LS Profi» LLC will help you determine. Our company is a manufacturer of cold-rolled galvanized profiles and specializes in steel structures for solar energy.

Ground-based support structures for photovoltaic panels can be single or double-posted, with a portrait or landscape arrangement of solar panels in two, three rows or more. The design can be static or with a changeable angle of inclination of photovoltaic modules; the structure can also be made in the form of a canopy. The racks of such structures can be driven or concreted, or ballast support can be used. Despite the apparent simplicity of the steel frames under the PV modules, there are many nuances and subtleties, lack of knowledge of which leads to the solar panels cracking and your station stopping working. When calculating the project of a ground-based solar station, profiles are selected in accordance with the location and geological conditions of the site.

Rooftop solar stations are designed taking into account the type of roof and its angle of inclination, as well as minimizing the load on the entire structure. For pitched roofs, solar panels can most often be placed directly on the roof surface. The panels are fastened using a perforated C-shaped galvanized profile, which has special bends and stiffeners for fixing a stainless bolt for attaching the PV- modules. This mounting profile is called C solar. Due to its light weight and ease of installation, this profile has been a bestseller in recent years and is always in stock at our company.

Advantages of frames made of galvanized steel profiles

In addition to efficiency, environmental friendliness and durability, which are important criteria, galvanized steel frames have the following advantages:

• protective coating that guarantees resistance to corrosion and adverse effects of the environment and weather conditions;
• ease of installation of such frames, so the assembly and installation process will take a minimum of time;
• the strength and reliability of such structures makes it possible not only to place a solar station, but also to obtain a full-fledged functional object, such as canopies, parking lots, covered parking lots.
• Seismic resistance of thin-walled steel frames, which is very important, since solar stations are often located in difficult geological and climatic conditions.

You can buy a frame for solar panels by filling out an application on our website or in the office at Kyiv, 13 Prirechnaya st. We have many already designed standard design options, but almost every order requires an individual approach, as new types of solar panels appear that require additional engineering calculations.
