KLY Solar/Commercial Rooftop

Commercial Rooftop Mounting Systems

Mounting systems for metal and flat commercial roofs, supplied on a project basis with rails, clamps and fixings specified to the roof and module.

Roof-parallel rail systems for trapezoidal and standing-seam profiles, and ballasted tilted or east-west arrangements for flat roofs — with zero roof penetration and loads assessed and spread to protect the roof.

Zero-penetration options

Loads assessed per roof

Configurations

The mounting arrangement is selected against the roof covering, available load reserves and the project’s yield target.

Metal Roof — Roof-Parallel mounting diagram

Type 1

Metal Roof — Roof-Parallel

Rail and short-rail systems fixed to trapezoidal or standing-seam profiles, modules parallel to the roof.

Flat Roof — Tilted mounting diagram

Type 2

Flat Roof — Tilted

Ballasted tilted arrangements for maximum yield on flat roofs — no roof penetration.

Flat Roof — East-West mounting diagram

Type 3

Flat Roof — East-West

Ballasted east-west arrangements for maximum module count and even generation.

Specified to the roof and the module

Supplied per project — roof type, module and layout — rather than sold as individual catalogue components.

Trapezoidal metal

Short-rail and rail arrangements fixed to trapezoidal profiles.

Standing seam

Non-penetrating seam clamps that preserve the roof covering.

Flat roof ballast

Ballasted systems with zero roof penetration.

Module clamps

Clamps specified to the module frame and layout.

Load spreading

Ballast and point loads spread to protect the roof structure.

Documentation

Layout, ballast plan and QA documentation per project.

Engineering

Roof assessment

Covering, structure and load reserves considered per project.

Wind & snow loading

UK loading parameters applied per roof.

Layout & ballast

Array layout and ballast plan developed to spread loads safely.

Module interface

Rails and clamps configured to the specified module.

Structural checks and verification can be coordinated with UK engineers where the project requires it.
