Sliding Nuts with Ball for 4040 Rail

Currently, we have two sliding nuts, one is made of steel, and the other is made of aluminum, both of them are used for 40*40 rail, and easy installed, like below picture. The special feature of this product is that there is a small ball at the bottom of this product. When the nut enters the rail, the small ball will push against the bottom, making the nut push against the opening above the track.

Solar Panel Mounting Ground Tracking Structure

SIC solar panel ground mounting has many type, such as aluminum ground mounting structure, steel ground mounting bracket, adjustable single pole ground mount, and ground mounting with ground screw foundation or cement foundation, and the tracking ground mount frame.


Tracking ground mounting system can adjust the tilt angle when the sun change its site when the season changes. And you don't change the angle and be worried about that the solar panel cannot convert into more electricity. the tracker will look for the best angle to make the solar panel as perpendicular to the sun as possible. Single axis mounts simply track the sun from east to west.


Btw, the ground mounting structure is made of steel that can withstand heavy snow load and wind speed.

Weathering the Storm How Photovoltaic Mounting Systems Can Brave Blizzard Conditions

Introduction:

Extreme weather events, such as snowstorms, pose significant challenges for photovoltaic (PV) systems. The weight of accumulated snow, strong winds, and freezing temperatures can impact the performance and structural integrity of PV mounting systems. In this blog post, we will explore the key considerations and strategies for ensuring the resilience of PV mounting systems in the face of blizzard conditions.

 

Robust Design and Materials:

To withstand the onslaught of a blizzard, PV mounting systems must be built with robust design principles and durable materials. Heavy-duty steel or aluminum structures, along with galvanized or corrosion-resistant coatings, provide the necessary strength and protection against weather-related wear and tear. Reinforced joints and connections also contribute to the overall structural integrity.

 

Snow Shedding Mechanisms:

The accumulation of snow on PV panels can significantly obstruct sunlight exposure, impacting energy production. Incorporating snow shedding mechanisms into the mounting systems can minimize this effect. Options include tilted mounting angles, anti-snow coatings, or active systems, such as heating elements or mechanical devices that enable the shedding of snow from the panels.

 

Engineering for Wind Loads:

High winds accompanying blizzards can exert substantial forces on PV mounting systems. Implementing proper engineering practices, such as accurate load calculations and wind tunnel testing, ensures that the system can withstand the design wind loads. Utilizing wind deflectors or aerodynamic designs can help reduce the impact of strong gusts on the structure.

 

Monitoring and Maintenance:

Regular monitoring of PV mounting systems during blizzards is crucial to identify any potential issues promptly. Remote monitoring systems can provide real-time data on system performance, snow accumulation, and structural integrity. Additionally, scheduled maintenance activities, such as snow removal and inspection, must be conducted after severe weather conditions to ensure the system remains in optimal condition.

 

Local Regulations and Code Compliance:

Adhering to local building codes and regulations is paramount in ensuring the safety and longevity of PV mounting systems. These guidelines often specify requirements related to wind and snow loads, structural design, and installation practices. Engaging with experienced professionals who are familiar with local regulations can help ensure compliance and system resilience.

 

Conclusion:

Blizzards present formidable challenges to PV mounting systems, but with careful planning, robust design, and attentive maintenance, these systems can withstand the harsh conditions and continue to generate clean and sustainable energy. By implementing proactive measures and adhering to industry best practices, we can harness the power of solar energy even in the face of extreme weather events, contributing to a greener and more resilient future.
