Mounting system with the shortest mounting time and minimized ballast for maximum yield / ConSole+: New mounting solution for flat-roof and ground areas

Cologne (ots) - The ConSole has been one of the most successful
mounting solutions for flat-roofs for 15 years. The simple design
combined with the low mounting cost and the short assembly time has
made it a pioneer and absolute permanent success in the field of PV
mounting for flat- roofs. The principle is simple: The ConSole, a tub
made of HDPE is freely positioned on the roof and then filled with
ballast such as gravel. The optimal load distribution means that
point loads do not occur on the roof surface. There has never been a
more effective and efficient PV mounting solution for flat-roofs -
until the new Renusol ConSole+.

ConSole+: Proven quality can still be improved.

Because of the aerodynamic design, the ConSole+ innately requires
low ballast. The needed ballast is being lowered through to the use
of the so-called Streamliner+. In the outer rows of the ConSole+
installation, the Streamliner+ reduces the strength of the wind loads
considerably. This feature enables the use of the ConSole+ on flat
roofs with load bearing reserves as low as 15 kg per square meter.

The Console+ of course retains the proven reliability and safety
of the ConSole developed and produced in Germany. The ConSole+ is the
result of several years of experience, precise development and
expensive tests in the wind tunnel. The ConSole+ can be used on flat
roofs up to 5° and on ground areas. It has a basic floor surface of
1,716 x 1,077 mm and is suitable for all framed modules with a height
of 1,650-1,710 mm and a width of 950-1,070 mm.

The ConSole+ consists of HDPE (high-density polyethylene). The
non- electrically conductive synthetic, through the addition of non-
oxidized carbon receives the characteristic black colour ensuring the
UV resistance of the mounting system. The ConSole+ remains
comparatively cool as HDPE has a low thermal conductivity. Air slots
in the upper and lower areas of the ConSole+ also ensure optimal and
constant cooling of the modules.

The ConSole+ is finally a mounting system that offers optimized
returns per square metre. With the ConSole+, Renusol GmbH once more
creates a standard in the field of PV mounting solutions for flat-
roofs and ground areas.

Renusol is introducing the ConSole+ for the first time at the
Intersolar in Munich (hall C4, stand 570). The ConSole+ will be
available in July 2011.
