Solar Tilt Leg Kit

Clenergy Solar Tilt Leg Kit

Tilt Angle: 10 Degrees to 15 Degrees
Inclusions: Front and Rear Mounting Legs | Channel Nuts | Roof Screws
Warranty: Warranty: 10 Years
Applications: To correct Solar Panel Angle for Optimum Solar Harvest – For Flat Roofs where a minimum of 10 Degrees is recommended for Passive Solar Panel Cleaning – Off-Grid Applications where the Winter Sun Angle is low.

Understanding Your Requirements: For Off-Grid applications, when selecting tilt angle required for our Solar Panels we need to take into account how our energy consumption varies throughout the year and also the sun angle at our latitude. If we were using our Air Conditioner only in the summer months for example, then in winter your energy consumption would be far less. A system tilted for summer months optimization (close to your latitude angle) would work quite effectively. Though if we were to use this same Air Conditioner in Reverse Cycle Mode as a heater regularly in the winter then our winter energy consumption would be similar to the summer consumption. Now because the sun angle is lower in the sky in winter with far less intensity, we would need to tilt our panels more than the local latitude angle to be able to get as much harvest as possible to create enough energy for the Reverse Cycle Air Conditioner. Generally speaking we could never match the summer performance though we will make a dramatic difference compared to if we were to keep the Solar Panels Angle at the local latitude angle. How much do we tilt our Solar Panels? If we are in an unshaded area facing North we would angle the system a further 10 to 15 Degrees more than the local latitude. With these higher angles we may loose a little harvest in the summer months though the compensation for the winter would far outweigh any losses from summer.

Who is Clenergy?
Founded in Australia, Clenergy now has a foot print across the world with products and services that have become synonymous with quality due to Clenergy’s heavy investment into research. Specializing in the development, manufacturing and marketing of renewable energy mounting system, Clenergy is now the industry benchmark and as a result has grown to be a globally renowned renewable energy company with nearly 400 employees and offices around four continents. Clenergy’s range of high quality products and services include PV-mounting solutions for the residential market. In addition to this, Clenergy also supplies large scale solutions to commercial and utility scale customers.

In addition to commitment in quality, innovation and services Clenergy also supports organisations such as the ‘It’s Time Foundation to deliver renewable energy to disadvantaged schools in the Pacific. Schools are able to migrate from diesel fuelled generators to clean, reliable and more cost effective solar power. Funds saved from generating power through solar are put towards children’s education and future development. Clenergy also works with Universities and researchers to improve the delivery of renewable energy to the world. We support organisations with a desire to move away from non-renewable and unsustainable energy sources.
