S-5! offers a variety of engineered solutions for mounting solar PV and balance of system components on both standing seam and exposed-fastened metal roofing.
There are many options when mounting solar on a metal roof, the details of which can impact installation costs and lifetime performance. Metal rooftop mounting consists of two basic parts: the roof mounting hardware and the actual solar panel attachment interface. Choosing to go with a rail-based or rail-less installation method depends on a variety of factors.
Your chosen mounting method can have a profound effect on the cost of materials, total installation time and labor, material handling, logistics, freight expense and much more.
The PVKIT attaches the modules directly to the seams or ribs of the roof without the need for the addition of rails.
The PVKIT is mounted to S-5! clamps and brackets according to roof type.
The weight of PVKIT mounting is only 15% of rail mounting. Think of the savings in freight and logistics, not to mention added load to the roof structure!
Attaches any L-foot of rail-mounted PV solar rail system to exposed-fastened metal roofing.
Metal roof bracket for attachment of side-mount rails without the need for an L-Foot.
S-5! clamps and brackets are compatible with popular rack and rail solar systems.
Balance of System refers to all of the various components of a PV system beyond the actual modules themselves. At S-5!, we offer metal roof attachments for mounting these related solar PV components on both standing seam and exposed-fastened metal roofing.
From service walkways to conduit, wire trays, optimizers, other MLPEs and monitoring equipment, you can use S-5! clamps, brackets and GRIPPERFIX® universal utility mounting system to securely attach the above ancillaries to your PV array.
All S-5! components carry a material/workmanship warranty for the life of the roof, so be assured S-5! is “on the job” for the life of the PV array!
Designed for standing seam and concealed-fix metal roof profiles, S-5! clamps can be used to mount ancillary components directly to the roof seams, without the need for any additional interfacing hardware.
S-5! brackets are designed for mounting on exposed-fix (face-attached or thru-fastened) metal roofs. Bolt Balance of System components directly to the appropriate bracket without additional interface hardware.
GRIPPERFIX provides a dependable and corrosive-resistant attachment solution. Mount Balance of System components with zero-penetration to standing seam roofs. No need for field-applied sealants for exposed-fastened roofs.
