At present, there are 3 types of brackets used in most PV power plants: fixed conventional bracket, adjustable tracking bracket and flexible PV bracket. This refers to the mounting system where the orientation, angle, etc. remain unchanged after installation.
This type of mounting bracket is designed to be attached to the side of a pole, hence its name. It is used for smaller solar panel installations and is a popular choice for off-grid and remote locations.
The purpose of installing the bracket is to better fix the solar panel. If there is a more convenient and feasible method to fix the solar panel. PVMars will definitely recommend it to you, and effective solutions are based on solar panels’ characteristics and your on-site installation environment.
The choice of bracket directly affects the operational safety, breakage rate and construction investment of PV modules. Choosing the right PV bracket will not only reduce the project cost, but also reduce the post maintenance cost.
Content Marketing Specialist for the Photovoltaic Industry Dedicated to providing thought-provoking articles on the PV industry Brackets are one of the most important accessories for installing PV, and there are many types to choose from in the form of connection, mounting structure, and installation location.
The installation angle of PV modules in flexible mounts is generally small, usually 10°-15°. Flexible bracket is mainly applicable to scenarios such as mountainous projects with large slope (e.g. above 35°), fishery-photovoltaic and agricultural-photovoltaic projects with high headroom requirements.
