Profile SPS-HP
The heavy-duty aluminium profile suitable for photovoltaic installations with large spacing support
Applications
Suitable for:
System SPS with:
- Single pole load-bearing structure SPS
- Clamps SPS-PMC and SPS-PMF
System DFS with:
- Double foot load-bearing structure DFS
- Clamps SPS-PMC and SPS-PMF
Allowable configurations
- 2 modules – portrait disposition
Versions
- steel S235JR according EN 10025-2: 2004, hot dip galvanized (≥ 80 µm) according EN ISO 1461:2009
- bolts and nuts in stainless steel A2-70 according EN ISO 3506 1/2;2010
Features
- Heavy duty: the profile SPS-HP has an high load-bearing capacity and it is used to reduce the supporting structures.
- No scrap: the optimised length reduces waste and facilitates handling on site.
- Maximum allowable spacing 2800 mm, depending on snow and wind loads calculated according current National Regulations.
- SPS and DFS load-bearing structures spacing has to be evaluated depending on snow and wind loads for installation area, according National Regulations.
- Fasten the SPS-HP profile on load-bearing structures (SPS and DFS) using bolts and nuts M 10 (bolt’s length ≥ 30 mm) through the slotted holes.
- Use the SPS Joint to join profiles SPS-HP. The connection has to be locked with bolts and nuts M 12 (bolt’s length ≥ 70 mm).
The maximum recommended length of a PV panels row is 20 m to prevent too large thermal expansion.
