Unirac’s PV Pole Mount solutions deliver flexible, proven designs and durability anywhere in the field. From a single, 5-watt module to 100 square feet of PV per pole, their PV PoleTop and PV PoleSide™ mounting systems are designed with state-of-the-art CAD engineering software. The result is high-quality product and time and money saved on the job site.
As part of Unirac’s commitment to their customers, they adhere to strict quality guidelines and performance, by performing mechanical tests on their rails, attachments and hardware. All lightweight components keep shipping costs low and resist corrosion after assembly. Unirac’s three basic designs are described below.
PV Pole Tops
All PV PoleTops mount modules quickly and easily to SolarMount standard or HD (heavy duty) rails, giving larger arrays great strength across long rows. Up to 65 square feet of modules on installer supplied 4-inch Schedule 40 or 80 pole (varies depending on the model — see Data Sheet for details). Degrees range from 15 to 60 degrees from horizontal and 0 to 90 degrees.
