Protects the inverter from precipitation and sunlight
PVshelter is a mounting system that protects inverters in any solar project from weather conditions. PVshelter offers a reliable and durable solution that guarantees maximum safety and efficiency.
1. Fire safety: keeps hazardous DC voltages outside
PVshelter offers a safe and efficient solution for installing inverters on the roof. Fire safety is essential when installing inverters. By positioning inverters on the roof, hazardous DC voltage is kept outside. The inverter can be installed either freestanding on the roof or mounted against the wall.
2. Guaranteed ready for inspections
Fire safety is crucial in every solar panel installation, especially when using inverters. The PVshelter is specifically designed to keep hazardous direct current (DC) voltages outside the building. By placing the inverters on the roof, PVshelter ensures a fire-safe installation. This system complies with all necessary safety requirements and is guaranteed ready for inspections.
3. High-quality Magnelis® steel for optimal quality
Sustainability is essential in solar energy projects. PVshelter is manufactured from Mangelis® steel, renowned for its superior corrosion protection and environmentally friendly properties. This material not only extends the lifespan of your installation but also reduces the carbon footprint. PVshelter is therefore ideal for use in environments with high levels of chloride and ammonia, such as coastal areas and agricultural businesses. Read more about Magnelis® steel here
4. Wind certified: protects against all weather conditions
PVshelter not only offers fire safety but also protection against extreme weather conditions. Thanks to its construction and the correct ballast weight, the inverter mounting frames are wind certified according to Peutz guidelines. This guarantees that your installation can withstand strong wind conditions, even hurricane-force winds. Read more about the wind certificate here
5. Saves space and absorbs noise and/or vibrations
In addition to safety and durability, PVshelter also offers practical benefits. The system is space-saving, making it ideal for roofs with limited space. Furthermore, PVshelter keeps disruptive noise and mechanical vibrations from the (large) inverters outside the building. Any noise or mechanical vibrations are absorbed by the rubber roof supports, protecting the roof structure.
PVshelter can be easily expanded with the RoofSupport wire mesh cable tray system. Together with the PVbox, FireSwitch, and PValarm, this provides a complete solution. Discover more about the benefits of RoofSupport: 5 reasons to choose RoofSupport
