ClickFit EVO Steel Roof

Installing solar panels – We make it smarter, faster and simpler. How? With ClickFit® EVO Steel Roof, a smart mounting system for all types of steel roofs, including trapezoidal and corrugated steel roofs. For you, this means working more efficiently, with less fuss.
No pre-drilling required
The profiles have pre-punched holes and are attached with a self-tapping screw. This eliminates the need for pre-drilling and reduces installation time.
Pre-taped EPDM rubbers
The pre-taped EPDM rubbers on the profiles save you work on the roof and it guarantees watertightness.
High and low profiles
For a nice look, choose low profiles for mounting short on the roof. If you want space for optimisers and micro-inverters, use the high profiles.

ALL SPECIFICATIONS

Mounting profiles are the fastest way to install on trapezoidal and sandwich steel sheets. For other steel sheet roofs, the hanger bolt solution is advised. For both ways, the mounting features are mentioned in the overview below.

Fast installation on any steel roof

The smart mounting system comprises just four lightweight and strong components for simple solar panel installation. For every type of steel roof. You save time and space during installation.

4 basic components

The ClickFit EVO mounting system for pitched roofs consists of just 4 basic components. This makes installation extra easy. Read on for more information on each component.

Stick screw

With the flexible adapter, you easily and quickly catch roof irregularities of up to 10 degrees. In addition to the steel roof, this Stick screw is also suitable for corrugated sheet, EPDM, bitumen and Mediterranean tile roofs.

Alternative: install easily without pre-drilling, leaving the underlying roof structure intact. The self-tapping screw is a multihead screw T30 and SW10.

Basic profile

The smart mounting system for steel roofs consists of mounting profiles with pre-punched holes and a pre-applied EPDM rubber. This saves you a lot of work and the EPDM rubber also guarantees water tightness. With the self-tapping screw, you attach the mounting profiles directly to the trapezoid or corrugated steel roof. Pre-drilling is not necessary, leaving the roof intact. Choose a low profile for positioning close to the roof and an attractive appearance or a high profile to accommodate large optimisers and inverters.

Module clamps

The universal module clamp is height adjustable and thus suitable for solar modules with a frame thickness between 30 and 50 mm. Due to its clever design, the panel clamp (in combination with the end cap) can be used as a middle and end clamp.

End cap

The end caps provide a stylish and windproof finish. They are available with and without clamp support in grey and black.

Waterproof finish

With ClickFit EVO Steel Roof, the roof is protected from leaks. All installation profiles used in the system have pre-punched holes and a pre-glued EPDM rubber seal. The profiles are easily installed using self-tapping screws. If using the hanger bolts, the EPDM rubber seal also ensures the installation is waterproof, meaning less risk for you.

Pre-punched holes and pre-assembled hanger bolts for faster and smarter installation.

FAQ

The ClickFit EVO steel roof mounting profiles can be used on most sheet steel roofs, such as trapezoidal and corrugated steel roofs. The thickness of the steel sheets must be at least 0.5 mm. You can attach the system to all other types of steel roofs, for example the steel roof tile sheet, with the ClickFit EVO Hanger Bolt.

With ClickFit EVO Steel Roof you can choose from two types of mounting profiles: basic mounting profiles and the high optimizer ready mounting profiles. Both types are available in a variant for landscape and portrait mounting:

Mounting profile ‘Basic’ landscape (1008048): 120mm x 40mm x 23mm
Mounting profile ‘Basic’ portrait (1008049): 388mm x 56.5mm x 23mm
Mounting profile ‘Optimizer ready’ landscape (1008050): 260mm x 40mm x 50mm
Mounting profile ‘Optimizer ready’ portrait (1008051): 388mm x 57.5mm x 50mm

With ClickFit EVO Steel Roof you can choose between mounting in either landscape and portrait orientation. Choose the right variant of the mounting profile. More information can be found in our brochure.

To attach an optimiser or microinverter (collective name: MLPE = Module Levelling Power Electronics), you can use our ClickFit EVO MLPE Clip Lightweight or Heavyweight (art. no. 1008067 or 1008068). Note! If you mount the panels with the mounting profiles for steel roof, we recommend choosing the high (optimiser ready) mounting profile. This provides sufficient space between the roof and the solar panels. The MLPE Clip Lightweight is simply clicked onto the mounting profile, providing integrated cable management! Then click the MLPE onto the clip. First you mount the MLPE Clip Heavyweight on the MLPE, after which you mount the clip, with MLPE, on the mounting rail. Make sure the MLPE clip is placed at least 15 cm from the end of the mounting profile. Want to see how it works? Watch our installation demo.

All solar panels in the same row are automatically interconnected thanks to the ClickFit EVO Module Clamp. To bond the entire PV system, you do need to connect each row to grounding separately, because the individual rows are not connected to each other by the mounting system. The earthing conductor (≥Ø 4mm2) runs parallel to the positive and negative conductors and is connected to a separate grounding point of the inverter. If you have any questions about grounding and bonding, please contact our technical experts.
