No matter which solar racking system  product is selected, the installation quality must be guaranteed. What are the solar racking system installation steps?


  1. Selection of scaffold materials:


In some coastal areas with large daily wind power, everyone will pay special attention to whether solar water heaters have strong wind resistance when purchasing solar water heaters. If the quality of the solar water heater is high, most of its solar racking system are made of aluminum alloy brackets because they are thick and strong.


2. Front and rear column distance:


In the construction positioning, it must be ensured that the front pillar and the rear pillar of the steel pile are respectively on the same straight line, and the straight lines formed by the two pillars before and after are perpendicular to the two straight lines formed by the front pillar and the rear pillar respectively. In addition, the straight line should not be bent, and the amount of bending should be within 2mm. The height of the steel piles also has corresponding requirements, and the topmost height is at the same level. The distance between the front center and the rear pillar of the steel pile is about 3 meters, and the distance between the front pillar and the rear pillar is about 2 meters.


3. Determination of the position of the stringer:


The center of the upper edge welded plate of the front pillar must be at the same level. After the corresponding length in the steel pile is reserved, the front pillar can be fixed. The angle of inclination required by the drawing is determined, and the upper edge of the rear pillar is welded. The center of the plate is uniform in height. After the length of the steel pile is reserved, the rear pillar can also be fixed. After the front and rear pillars are fixed, the step of installing the stringer on the connecting plate is very important, and the center line of the longitudinal beam is important. Must coincide with the center line of the front and rear pillars, followed by the installation of the diagonal stay: one end of the diagonal stay is connected to the longitudinal beam, and the other end is connected with the support by the hoop, and the position of the longitudinal beams must be parallel to each other status.


4. Assembly:


The installation of the solar racking system is not difficult. When assembling, assemble the components according to the manual or the design drawings. Use a wrench to tighten the screws properly. Remember to install the rear puller at the end.


5, the choice of direction:


Solar water heaters are generally installed on the roof, facing north to the south, preferably about 5 to 10 degrees west of the south, because this direction is conducive to the sun without obstruction, and can also increase the sunshine time.


I would like to introduce you to the types of solar racking system and the installation steps of solar brackets. I hope this article will help you.
