xVoltacon 10° Flat Roof Solar Panel Mounting Kit East West Ballast
Low Profile Aerodynamic Solar Mounting System for Flat Roofs
The Voltacon 10-degree flat roof solar panel mounting kit is engineered for secure, low profile installations where wind exposure, roof height restrictions or planning sensitivity are critical factors.
Designed for residential and commercial buildings, this ballast-mounted system delivers strong structural performance while keeping solar panels discreet and close to the roof surface.
Now we offer universal fittings to match frames from 30mm to 40mm
Why 10 Degree Inclination Makes the Difference
A 10 degree tilt offers an excellent balance between energy performance and stability, especially on exposed flat roofs. The low profile design helps reduce wind uplift and keeps the array visually discreet.
- Reduced wind uplift and turbulence compared to higher tilt frames
- Aerodynamic low profile design engineered to withstand strong winds up to 140 km/h
- Lower structural loading on the building due to reduced sail effect
- Discreet appearance with minimal visual impact from ground level
- Excellent year-round solar generation without overexposing the modules
The aerodynamic triangular frame allows airflow to move smoothly across the array, significantly reducing pressure compared to steeper mounting systems. This makes it ideal for exposed industrial roofs, warehouses, offices and taller buildings.
East West Back to Back Configuration
This arrangement supports two rows of solar panels installed back to back in east west orientation, helping you maximise roof space and spread generation across the day.
- Maximises available flat roof area
- Improves generation from morning to afternoon compared to single-direction layouts
- Creates a more balanced production curve for better self-consumption
The aluminium triangles may also be configured as single rows all facing one direction (south), or adapted for roof orientations such as southeast and southwest.
By adding 2, 4, 6 and so on PV modules to your basket, you will receive the mounting material for the same number of panels to install back to back.
Flat Roof Installation Without Drilling
This is a fully ballast mounted solution, designed to eliminate roof penetrations.
- No drilling into the roof membrane
- Eliminates the risk of water leaks
- Helps protect insulation and waterproof layers
- Fast, clean installation and easy future removal if required
Simple ballast such as concrete blocks or sacks of sand is required to keep the panels securely in place.
Premium Materials for Long Term Durability
- Stainless steel parts for corrosion resistance
- Aluminium rails and triangles for strength and low weight
- The span of the longest rail is 2.4 metres
Ideal for Challenging Roofs
If aerodynamics, building height limitations or wind exposure have prevented a solar installation, the Voltacon 10° low inclination ballast system is the approved solution for secure, discreet flat roof mounting.
