Ground mount structures for framed and frameless PV modules

All advantages of the S:FLEX ground mount system at a glance:

• Simple and flexible planning of ground-mounted PV systems with framed and unframed modules
• Project-related design and system configuration
• Vertical and horizontal module installation are possible
• Variable module pitch from 0° to 60°
• Maximum flexibility thanks to height-adjustable module clamps and end clamps
• Foundation with pile-driven C-profiles (standard)
• Other foundation variants on request, e.g. installation on concrete footings or with ground screws
• System load capacity in accordance with Eurocode; verifiable structural calculations are available on request for maximum safety
• Long service life, complete recyclability and corrosion resistance thanks to components made entirely of aluminium, stainless steel and galvanised steel with a 10-year warranty

Cost-efficient frame solutions for ground-mounted systems

The S:FLEX ground mount structure is available as a one or two-legged version and can be used on a wide variety of soil types and terrains. Slopes of up to 6° in east/west orientation are possible in principle. With careful design, the gradient can be increased to 50°.

The single-leg construction with supports and the two-legged version with optional struts and individually planned leg spacing allow the frames to be precisely adapted to the respective wind and snow loads.

As standard, the foundation is created by pile driving the C-profiles. Alternatively, the profiles can be screwed onto concrete footings with a base plate.
