Over a thousand photovoltaic panels, extremely high wind resistance, and well
600 kWp of clean electricity: this large photovoltaic system has been implemented by Antaridi S.r.l on the expansive flat roof of a shopping center in Pesaro, using the ballasts from the
Connect system 5° by Sun Ballast as support structures. Composed of three different types of structure – front, central, and terminal ballast – the Connect system offers photovoltaic installations an extremely high level of stability and wind resistance: the ballasts are indeed connected in a single lattice, which links all the structures and modules together, ensuring the installation the highest level of safety and resistance to mechanical stresses generated by atmospheric phenomena, even the most intense ones. In this way, the loads are distributed across the entire roof in a perfectly
balanced manner: a significant advantage, especially when the photovoltaic system – as in this case – reaches considerable dimensions. Despite the extremely high wind resistance, the Connect system from Sun Ballast also ensures a
simple, quick, and flexible installation: the numerous obstacles present on the surface – chimneys, skylights, fans, etc. – were easily navigated, quickly adjusting the length of the rows based on the roof's geometry, making the best use of all available space and ensuring the perfect integrity of the covering membrane.
