Application

The PVC-P profile, depending on the project’s underlying waterproofing, forms the base of the system.


Hot air welding is used to fuse the RENOLIT ALKORPLAN Solar profile to the roofing membrane for a fully integrated finish.


The profile is securely fixed in place and cannot move and is therefore unable to damage the underlying roofing membrane.


An aluminium box section inserted into the synthetic profile is used as a base to mechanically fasten the substructure for the panels.


This is without the slightest risk of penetrating the waterproofing membrane.

Description

A lightweight and secure PVC fastening profile, used as both solar photovoltaic panel support and carrier system. A P-PVC extrusion with aluminium box section insert for use on existing or new ALKORPLAN P-PVC roofing membranes.


The unique RENOLIT ALKORPLAN Solar profile has brought a dynamic change to the aesthetics of RENOLIT ALKORPLAN single ply membrane. The PVC profile and aluminium box section combination is hot air welded to the surface of the membrane, providing a solid mounting for a variety of roof finishes.


RENOLIT ALKORSOLAR System is light weight, non penetrative to the waterproofing layer and forms a complete system. It works with RENOLIT ALKORPLAN and RENOLIT ALKORPLAN Bright.


Features and benefits:

  • Top hat section.
  • No penetration of the roofing membrane.
  • Lightweight.
  • Watertight.
  • CE Marked.
  • For flat and pitched roofs.
  • Easy, reliable and fast installation.
  • Solar elements can be easily maintained and repaired.
  • Recyclable.
  • ALKORPLAN Solar profiles can be fitted on new build and just as easily to an existing roofing membrane.
  • The PVC profile and aluminium box section combination hot air welded to the surface of the membrane provides a solid mounting for all types of PV systems, both solar and thermal.
  • Acts as a carrier system for façade materials, where the specifier wishes to waterproof with single ply membrane but also provide an alternative aesthetic finish to the roof surface.
  • During development, wind tunnel tests were undertaken at the Von Karman Institute (VKI) and tested up to a maximum of 200 km/hour (laminar). RENOLIT ALKORPLAN Solar profiles withstood the tests without any problems.
