Unistrut channel is also called solar strut channel. Unistrut channels are special brackets designed for placing, installing and fixing solar panels in solar photovoltaic power generation systems. They are the skeleton that supports the components of photovoltaic power stations. They can fix photovoltaic components on roofs, ground, water surfaces and other photovoltaic power station application scenarios, allowing photovoltaic power stations to operate stably for a long time. Unistrut channels are usually composed of U-shaped steel or C-shaped steel made of zinc-aluminum-magnesium or hot-dip galvanized materials and supporting connection accessories. They can not only be easily transported and assembled, but also have the advantages of easy maintenance, long service life and low economic cost. They are one of the indispensable material accessories for photovoltaic power stations.

1. Improve the efficiency of photovoltaic systems

Another important role of solar strut channel is to adjust the orientation of photovoltaic modules to obtain the best energy collection efficiency. The efficiency of the solar power generation system is directly related to the angle at which the photovoltaic modules capture the sun. With the help of solar strut channel, photovoltaic modules can always face the sun, thereby collecting more solar energy, allowing photovoltaic modules to convert energy to a greater extent and increase photovoltaic power generation.

2. Protect photovoltaic modules

The main function of solar strut channel is to install photovoltaic modules, which are the core components of solar power generation systems. The solar strut channel can firmly fix photovoltaic modules so that they will not fall off or be damaged due to vibration or other external forces during operation. In addition, the cables on the photovoltaic modules are also routed through the solar strut channels to ensure the stable operation of the system. Solar strut channel can support and stabilize photovoltaic modules and protect them from damage by external factors, such as wind, rain, dust, hail, etc.

3. Extend the service life of the photovoltaic system

After the photovoltaic system is installed on the slotted strut channel, it can play the role of fixing the photovoltaic modules, so that the photovoltaic modules can withstand 30 years of sunlight, avoid strong winds and corrosion from ground impurities, so as to ensure the service life of the photovoltaic power station.

4. Withstand environmental impacts

Unistrut channels need to operate in extreme outdoor natural environmental conditions, such as sunlight, rain, snow, storms, etc. The slotted strut channel must be designed with sufficient strength to withstand these natural impacts and ensure the reliable operation of the solar power generation system. In addition, unistrut channels must also take into account factors such as geological conditions and architectural style. For example, if the foundation stability is poor or a more beautiful architectural environment is required, the design and selection of the slotted strut channel also need special consideration.

1. Strong adaptability

Due to different climate conditions and terrains in different regions, solar strut channels need to have strong adaptability, and installation methods and materials can be selected according to different situations.

2. High economic efficiency

After adopting unistrut channel, the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic systems is effectively improved, the speed of electricity bill recovery is accelerated, and enterprises are helped to reduce costs and improve benefits.

3. Strong reliability

The unistrut channel is scientifically designed to withstand the test of harsh weather conditions and natural disasters such as strong winds and rainstorms, and has high reliability and stability.

Use scenarios of unistrut channel

Slotted strut channels and photovoltaic power stations are mainly used in the following scenarios:

1. Rooftop photovoltaic power generation system

Installing slotted strut channels and photovoltaic modules on the roof of a building is a distributed photovoltaic power station. It generates electricity through photovoltaic modules. It is common in urban buildings or places with limited land use, which can greatly reduce the requirements for the site.

2. Ground photovoltaic power station

Ground photovoltaic power stations are usually built on the ground and belong to centralized photovoltaic power stations. They are composed of photovoltaic modules, solar strut channels and electrical equipment. They can convert solar energy into electricity and transmit it to the power grid. It is a clean, renewable and increasingly common way to build photovoltaic power stations.

3. Agricultural photovoltaic system

The solar strut channel is installed next to the farmland or on the top or side of some greenhouses to provide the dual functions of shading and power generation for crops, which can reduce the economic cost of the agricultural system.

4. Other special scenarios

Unistrut channel can also be used to set up power stations in fields such as offshore wind power generation and highway lighting. It can also be used for the general contracting of photovoltaic power station projects in the entire county to help energy conservation and environmental protection.
