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/m2.
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 photovoltaic mounting solutions for flatroofs 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.
