GENERAL INTRODUCTION

ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI flat roof adjustable tilt mounting system has been developed as a universal PV
module mounting system for flat roof or open space ground installation. 10-15, 15-30, 30-60
adjustable degree optional. The innovative and the high degree of pre-assembly eliminate the
need for onsite cutting, welding and enables quick and easy field PV module installation.

Rail II

Easy to be installed

ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI features series of highly engineered new innovative product, designed with
experienced engineers to the speed of installation.
ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI pitched roof solar mounting system is backed by a 10-year warranty and is
compliant with AS/NZS1170.2.2011(R2016)

Benefits of ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI Flat Roof Mounting System

● Easy Installation

● Diversified Application

● High Accuracy

● Choice Quality

● Engineered to highest standards

● Maximum Lifespan

● Guaranteed durability

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Applications

⚫ Commercial and residential buildings
⚫ Marine applications and remote areas

Features

⚫ Anodized 6005-T6 aluminum extrusion
⚫ Innovated designed of the Tilt-in modules, which can be pre-assembly with the clamp, make

the installation easy and quick.

⚫ Suitable for difference conditions and the most solar panels at present market.
⚫ Significantly higher strength-to-weight ratio than other framing products, providing improved

efficiency due to greater frame spans, inherent corrosion resistance resulting in low ongoing
maintenance and an extended product life.

⚫ Complies with Australian/New Zealand Standard on Wind Actions, AS/NZS1170.2.2011/Amdt
3:2013
⚫ 10 years limited warranty backed up by parent company ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI Aluminum

Handling and Installing ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI

It is critically important that safety practices are observed when installing

⚫ Do not throw or roughly handle any ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI components.
⚫ Do not bring ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI solar system into contact with sharp or heavy objects.
⚫ Do not modify ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI solar components in any way. The exchange of bolts, drilling of

holes, bending or any other physical changes not described in standard installation procedure will void

the warranty.

⚫ It is the installer’s responsibility to verify the integrity of the structure to which ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI

solar components is fixed. Roofs or structures with rotten/rusted bearers, undersized bearers,

excessively spaced bearers, or any other unsuitable substructure cannot be used with

ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI solar components, and installation on such structures will void the warranty, and

could result in death or serious injury.

Wind and Climate Design

AS/NZS1170.2.2011 provides guidance on determining the wind pressures applicable to your

ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI solar system install site, taking into account roof shape and geographic location.

Sufficient guidance is given in this document, but you may wish to procure a copy of these standards if

your company installs Australia/New Zealand wide.
⚫ REMEMBER average wind speeds are higher for structures mounted closer to the roof perimeter zone

(edge). Refer to ‘Fixing within Roof Installation Zone’ for more information)

⚫ Make sure your installation complies with local and national building codes. Take into account relevant

design parameters (wind speed, exposure and topographic factor) when determining the loading for

the installation.

⚫ If alternative fasteners are used to ix the framing to the roof (assuming supplied fasteners are

unsuitable for any reason), all screw fasteners must conform to corrosion resistance Class 4

Australian Standard AS3566 and be of equal or greater strength to those supplied with your

ANTAISOLAR/ANTAI solar system order.

CAUTION: INSTALLATION OF THIS PRODUCT IS TO BE PERFORMED ONLY BY PROFESSIONALLY TRAINED

INSTALLERS. ANY ATTEMPT BY AN UNQUALIFIED PERSON TO INSTALL THIS PRODUCT COULD RESULT IN

DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
