Ballasted Roof Mounting

A ballast mounting system uses weight to provide stability and keep the solar panels in place. This method is particularly popular for commercial and industrial installations and situations where it is necessary to avoid roof penetrations or when the surface cannot support additional loads.

The ballast mounting system typically consists of the following key components:

Ballasts: Ballasts are heavy weights that are strategically placed on the racking structure or solar panel array to provide stability and counteract wind uplift forces. Ballasts are typically made of materials like concrete, cement blocks, or steel plates.
Support Legs or Feet: The mounting system is elevated above the flat surface using support legs or feet. These legs are adjustable in height to accommodate uneven surfaces and allow for proper alignment of the solar panels.
Clamps: The solar panels are securely fastened to the Support using clamps, ensuring they are held firmly in place.
Base plate: provide a stable and secure foundation for Support Legs or Feet. By distributing the load to ballasts, it helps prevent tilting, or toppling under applied forces.
