Solar Panel Rails

#1

Post by openspaceman »

When my FIT system was installed there were bits left over, 6 2m rails and various aluminium fittings. I used these to mount my next three 595W panels above a flat roof on a scaffold frame.

My current project is to put 3 200W used, gifted, panels onto a a steel profile shed roof and I wanted to use the same style of channel. The FIT system has the logo SYSTEM SOL-50 which seems to be a german firm but the equivalent rail now is more of an H section rather than the channel extrusion I have in the picture. Does anyone know of a similar channel rail?

O had similar rail but couldn’t find a match, the rail was 12 years old of course, in the end I just went with 41x41mm unistrut
