In the solar system, the Solar hook is a key component for fixing PV modules, which is mainly used for roof installation, especially for PV systems on tile roofs. According to the installation direction, solar hooks can be divided into horizontal hooks and vertical hooks.
- Solar horizontal hooks
Definition: Suitable for PV module support systems installed horizontally (the long side of the module is parallel to the eaves).
Common types:
- Lhook: simple and economical, suitable for a variety of roof types.
- S hook: arc design, suitable for special roofs such as Spanish tiles and corrugated tiles.
- Adjustable hook: adjustable height or angle, suitable for uneven roofs.
Applicable scenarios:
- Applicable to most roof structures, especially roofs such as cement tiles, ceramic tiles, and metal tiles.
- Suitable for scenarios where PVmodules need to be arranged along the eaves.
- Solar vertical hooks
Definition: Suitable for PV module support systems installed vertically (the short side of the module is parallel to the eaves).
Common types:
- U-type hook: provides more stable support, suitable for heavy roofs.
- Reinforced hook: thickened material to improve load-bearing capacity.
- Adjustable hook: suitable for roofs with large slopes, flexible adjustment of installation angle.
Applicable scenarios:
- Applicable to roofs where PVmodules need to be arranged vertically along the eaves.
- Suitable for roofs with limited space, optimize the arrangement of modules and improve space utilization.
How to choose?
- If there is enough space on the roof, it is recommended to choose horizontal Solar hooks, which are easier to install and have uniform force.
- If the roof space is limited or the installation conditions are limited, you can consider vertical hooks to improve utilization.
- Vertical installation may be more stable under extreme weather conditions such as strong winds and heavy rains.
