Wind deflectors for photovoltaic structures – improving stability and reducing costs

The OWN20/2.4NMC wind deflector is a structural element designed for mounting on flat roofs with photovoltaic panels with a tilt of 10°, 15° or 20°. Its main function is to improve the aerodynamic properties of the entire installation, which translates into a reduction in the load on the structure and a potential reduction in the amount of ballast needed to stabilize it. This solution will be appreciated by both installers and end-users looking to optimize costs and increase safety.

The deflectors fit UPG...MC brackets equipped with M8 threaded holes, ensuring quick and easy installation. Made of S350GD steel with Magnelis®, MagiZinc® or PosMAC coating, they guarantee exceptional corrosion resistance and long-lasting reliability even in harsh weather conditions.

Construction and mounting – well-thought-out solutions for professionals

The deflector design has been refined for functionality and ease of installation. Special reinforcing and stiffening embossments ensure structural strength, and precisely designed cutouts allow for breaking out hole covers without leaving sharp edges – this increases installer safety. Dense perforation allows for universal mounting to different types of photovoltaic panels. Additionally, special cutouts facilitate screwing the deflector directly onto the upper bracket panels.

To mount the deflector to the UPG...MC bracket, the following elements are required: SSZ8X12E + PW8E + PS8E. For mounting to the CP50H35/...MC channel, the following are needed: SAM8x25E + PS8E + PW8E + NRKM8PV. Remember to use the enlarged washer PW8E between the deflector and the UPG...MC bracket – this is crucial for correct installation and ensuring stability.

Key advantages of the OWN20/2.4NMC wind deflector:

• High corrosion resistance: thanks to the use of Magnelis®, MagiZinc® or PosMAC coatings, the deflector provides long-lasting protection against the effects of atmospheric factors.
• Increased structural stability: improved aerodynamic properties reduce the load on photovoltaic panels and allow for a reduction in the amount of ballast.
• Easy installation: specially designed cutouts and compatibility with popular UPG...MC brackets and CP50H35/...MC channels simplify the installation process.
• Safety of use: the absence of sharp edges after breaking out the covers minimizes the risk of injury during work.
• Versatility: dense perforation allows adaptation to different types of photovoltaic panels.
• Durability: S350GD steel with additional embossments provides a solid structure resistant to wind loads.
