How to choose the right photovoltaic bracket for your roof

June 2, 2024
When choosing a photovoltaic bracket suitable for your roof, you can consider the following aspects:
 
First, understand the type of roof
 
First of all, you need to know your type of roof, whether it is a slope roof or a flat roof, and the specific materials of the roof (such as glazed tiles, color steel tiles, concrete, etc.). The selection and installation of supports for different types of roofs will vary.
 
Second, the support material
 
The material of the photovoltaic bracket is crucial to its service life and safety. Common photovoltaic bracket materials are aluminum alloy, stainless steel and carbon steel.
 
1. ** Aluminum alloy bracket ** : lightweight and corrosion resistant, suitable for small and light photovoltaic systems.
2. ** Stainless steel bracket ** : with good corrosion resistance and strength, suitable for medium and large photovoltaic systems.
3. ** Carbon steel bracket ** : with high strength and carrying capacity, suitable for large and heavy duty photovoltaic systems.
 
When selecting materials, it is also necessary to consider the local climate environment (such as sunshine, rainfall, humidity, etc.) and use conditions to ensure the durability and stability of the bracket.
 
Third, structural design
 
1. ** Simple and reliable ** : The support structure should be simple and reliable, with sufficient rigidity and stability.
2. ** Adjustability ** : The bracket should have a certain degree of adjustability to adapt to the sun's altitude Angle and azimuth Angle changes in different seasons, so as to obtain better photovoltaic power generation efficiency.
3. ** Heat dissipation performance ** : The design of the bracket structure should be conducive to the heat dissipation of the photovoltaic module to avoid excessive temperature affecting the photovoltaic power generation effect.
 
Fourth, stability and security
 
1. ** Wind resistance ** : The photovoltaic bracket needs to have good wind resistance to ensure the stability of the system in a strong wind environment. For example, some column solar support can resist wind ≥200 km/h, suitable for use in areas with high wind speed.
2. ** Seismic performance ** : If earthquakes occur frequently in the area, a support that can withstand seismic load should be selected.
3. Anti-theft design ** : Considering that the photovoltaic power station may be located in remote areas, the bracket should also have a certain anti-theft function.
 
Five, installation convenience
 
1. ** Easy maintenance ** : The design and installation of the bracket should facilitate future maintenance work.
2. ** Scalability ** : With the increase in demand for photovoltaic power generation, the bracket should have a certain degree of scalability for future expansion.
 
6. Certification and standards
 
When selecting photovoltaic brackets, it is important to select products that meet national and international certification standards to ensure that the quality and performance of the brackets meet industry requirements.
 
To sum up, the selection of photovoltaic brackets suitable for their own roofs needs to consider a number of aspects, including roof type, bracket material, structural design, stability and safety, installation convenience and certification and standards. It is recommended to consult a professional photovoltaic installation company or engineer to ensure that the most suitable photovoltaic support scheme for your roof is selected.
