We are proud to unveil our latest development in PV mounting technology: the COMPACTFLAT S_BASE. Designed to simplify and speed up the installation process, this innovative system is set to transform the way flat roof solar projects are installed. Building on the success of our widely recognized COMPACTFLAT S system, S_BASE takes PV mounting to the next level. With the unique base plate design that reduces point loads, delivers value in compact stacks and beats the longevity of the traditional basket-style competitor.
Simple and easy. Just click it in place!
The S_BASE system can be installed facing the south at 5 or 10 degrees. For this revolutionary system, we have newly developed a lightweight base plate that holds ample ballast or supports anchored connection points. The brackets are easily ‘clicked-in’ directly into place.
Super fast assembly.
S_BASE clamps longitudinally at the technically correct quarter point. This means that this mounting solution can transfer high loads and even large modules do not bend. As the most cost-efficient longside clamping system for large modules over 8 feet (2,500 mm) with high snow and wind loads, COMPACTFLAT S_BASE is a unique key product.
Installers can quickly piece together the new substructure with the click-in brackets and clamps without any tools and in a self-explanatory manner. S_BASE provides minimal logistics effort, because the flat roof system consists of very few components. The compact nested base plates are lightweight to save on storage, labor and transportation costs and offer an integrated ballast platform with wind deflectors to reduce point loading and ballast quantity. All parts are made of high-grade aluminum and stainless steel.
One-Stop Planning with AEROTOOL.CAD
Together with the S_BASE system, we will launch a new CAD softwaer plug-in which enhances the design process for faster ballast calculations and on-demand BOM results. AEROTOOL.CAD allows clients to design full projects within the familiar AutoCAD environment, which saves them time as it eliminates the need to redesign the project across multiple platforms. It combines layout, stringing, energy and shadow simulation, obstacle definition, cable tray optimization, ballast calculation and yield simulation – all in one tool and in the shortest possible time.
The software developed by AEROCOMPACT is extremely flexible: Anchors can be moved, block sizes adjusted and modules moved. Thanks to the consistent and streamlined design process, relevant data can easily be exported to PVSyst and report to Excel. Planners then receive a parts list with all electrical components and a detailed project report. A true one-stop planning solution embedded in any drafting ecosystem, AEROTOOL.CAD proves to be a valuable platform to rapidly automate even the largest racking designs all while using the latest ASCE design criteria and code standards.
Join Us at RE+: Discover the Future of PV Mounting
We invite you to experience the benefits of S_BASE and AEROTOOL.CAD firsthand at RE+, one of the largest clean energy events in North America. From September 9 to 12, visit us at the Anaheim Convention Center & Campus in California in hall D booth #D25057. Our team will be on hand to demonstrate these innovations and discuss how they can revolutionize your flat roof PV projects. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the future of PV mounting with AEROCOMPACT.
