The ZC0572 system is a 72 kg ballast, with 5° inclination, made in fibre-reinforced concrete mix and designed for the attachment of photovoltaic systems on flat roofs. The combination of mass, geometry e mechanical characteristics of the material guarantees a high stability of the mounting system, effectively counteracting the wind actions and limiting the phenomena of sliding and lifting of the modules.
I ZC ballasted systems of Contact Italia are developed for optimise installation operations thanks to a functional and integrated geometry, also designed for the’packaging optimisation. The system provides pre-drilled holes for the installation of accessories without the need to drill holes in the article, threaded bushings and a aluminium profile embedded in ballast, already prepared for the attachment of terminals. The presence of a groove at base facilitates handling on the roof. All these features, typical of Contact Italia systems, contribute to reduce installation time and overall installation costs compared to traditional ballasted systems.
The system is suitable for installations where durability and reliability, also in harsh environmental conditions. The correct dimensioning of ballasted systems must be defined according to the installation conditions, of the wind zone, of the’orography of the territory, of the’height of the building and the stability checks required by the technical regulations in force at the place of installation, in order to ensure the structural safety and the photovoltaic system performance.
La Ballast ZC0572 can be used in sail configurations with 5° inclination, in horizontal arrangement of modules, preceded from Ballast ZC0558 e followed from Ballast ZC0580, guaranteeing the structural continuity of the system and the configuration stability.
The complete sail system configuration provides for a maximum of 6 files, made up in sequence by the ballasts ZC0536 – ZC0544 – ZC0551 – ZC0558 – ZC0572 – ZC0580; within this configuration, the ballast ZC0572 it forms the fifth row of the system.
