The new LEICHTmount 2.0 will make life easier for installers in the future. Thanks to the higher supports for the south-facing and east/west-facing systems, the distance from the roofing has been increased.
This facilitates compensation for uneven roof surfaces, and makes cable guidance far easier. A further development has also been made when it comes to roof coverage: for the best possible roof exploitation, the LEICHTmount 2.0 S south-facing version with bracket inclinations of 10° and 15° is now available with two different row space sizes designed for shade angles of 18° and 25° respectively.
Safety first with the LEICHTmount 2.0
Storm damage only makes up a minor share of insurance claim cases with PV systems, but when it comes to the level of damage compensation, they are at the top of the list (source: Mannheimer Versicherungen). The LEICHTmount 2.0 takes this into account by offering additional, pre-mounted fastening clips on the adhered building protection mat with aluminium lamination. They ensure that the constant friction is provided that prevents the systems from slipping on the roof.
In addition to the tests carried out to date, the LEICHTmount 2.0 underwent two further static load tests in accordance with the latest industrial standards. Pressure and tensile tests in conformance with IEC 61215:2005 with different module types showed that even under high loads, no microcracks occur in the cells.
The static calculations for projects now also include knowledge gained from new tests in the wind tunnel. During the tensile tests, 60 modules were tested together against displacement and lifting. Customers will be given a comprehensive project report which contains all the necessary static calculations as well as a project-related ballast plan.
The improvements are rounded off by certificates in accordance with UL 1703 and ETL certified in conformance with UL 2703 with the further developed module clamp with integrated earthing pins. As a result, international standards for system earthing are also met.
The new LEICHTmount 2.0 S and EW systems are available now at S:Flex in Germany, the UK, France, Spain and the United States.
