East-west-facing solar substructure Miralux Flex

1.    An east-west-facing set-up enables continuous energy generation throughout the day. This is because the solar panels can catch both the morning sun on the east side and also the evening sun on the west side. This spreads the yield of the photovoltaic system across the whole day and reduces peak output at midday, resulting in more even energy production.

2.    The east-west-facing version is also beneficial in terms of aerodynamic performance. All Miralux Flex solar substructures have been aerodynamically optimised in wind tunnel tests, making them comparatively low ballast, which contributes to improved stability, even at high wind speeds.
 

Key features of the Miralux Flex solar substructures are their exceptional ease of assembly, non-penetrative installation as well as the ability for a range of commercially available panel sizes to be installed and more. Additionally, the systems are made from hot-dip galvanised steel with a Magnelis® coating or from aluminium (on request), which makes them permanently resistant to external influences.

The Miralux Flex systems are designed to save space during transport and on site. Thanks to their prefabricated folding elements, the systems can be assembled extremely quickly and without the need for tools.

Yes, the systems can be easily extended – also retroactively – thanks to the modular construction of the solar substructures.

The systems guarantee excellent structural stability thanks to their favourable flow behaviour, even when exposed to high wind speeds. The ballast blocks, which can also be used on green and gravel roofs, contribute additional stability.

Yes, the systems are equipped with integrated cable channels that ensure that all cabling is safe and tidy.

The products are very lightweight, reducing distributed load by up to 75% compared with traditional systems, without overloading the roof structure.

Yes, the systems have proven lightning current carrying capability, which is essential to the safety of the system.

Indeed, you will not be subject to any warranty obligations for roof surfaces due to the installation of solar substructures if such installation does not require the roof cladding to be penetrated.
