Unlimited flexibility With the Alpha, both framed and unframed photovoltaic modules can be easily mounted on various types of pitched roofs.1
Significant savings Alpha has been specifically designed for minimum installation times. Pre-assembly, intelligent design of the connections, and the use of a single tool all result in a significant reduction in installation time and cost.
Cut-free accuracy The use of telescoping rails allows the system to be installed with complete accuracy; no trimming or cutting required.
Excellent adaptabilityThe option of vertically adjusting the base rails allows a level PV array to be installed, regardless of height variations in the roof surface.
Structural reliability Using Mounting Systems’ configuration software, the material for any standard configuration can be calculated in minutes with project specific, verifiable structural analysis (based on the applicable national norms) included.
Long service lifeAll components are made of extruded aluminum and stainless steel. This choice of material guarantees both full recyclability and an extended service life due to high resistance to corrosion.

1 Different maximum values may apply, and are dependent on site, building, choice of roof attachments and
modules. Using the Alpha calculation tool you can have the correct values for your project calculated quickly
and easily.
2 Due to thermal expansion of the material, we recommend a slight gap in the array every 12 m (39.4 ft.)
3 Please see the Mounting Systems, Inc. warranty document for details.
