The mounting system is designed for roofs with bitumen or plastic membrane (FPO) coverings. OBO states that the ASA-type plastic used ensures high durability for outdoor use. Installation is parallel to the roof surface, though a raised installation may be possible following consultation with OBO and a structural assessment.
Use on pitched roofs with a minimum inclination of ten degrees can be evaluated for specific projects. In all cases, a structural review is necessary. With this new system, OBO Bettermann is expanding its solar installation portfolio, providing a solution that eliminates the need for additional ballast. (nhp)
