Conergy SolarRoof LM Tested technology. With an elegant look. The Conergy SolarRoof LM was developed for the leveled integration of solar energy systems with frameless modules into the roof skin. Frameless modules are installed onto the system like lamellas. This ensures a watertight and durable installation. The show-stopper, however, is that instead of time-consuming screw connections, a patented rail click system is used. The solution is available as the Conergy Complete 200 system – aesthetically ambitious with a refined noir look. In other words, all visible components of the system including the module are black.

Overview: Conergy SolarRoof LM Areas of use | P  itched roofs with an inclination angle as low as 16° | In-roof installation Installation | Patented rail click system | F  or frameless modules | Both portrait and landscape installation Benefits | Elegant look | Simple and fast installation | R  eliably watertight – without additional roof substructure

Conergy flat roof mounting system. Easily installed. Perfectly aligned to the sun.

Conergy SolarFamulus Installed in no time. Row by row. If you are looking for the perfect solution for load-carrying flat roofs, then look no further. This mounting system can not only be quickly and securely installed with foot brackets or ground rails but also caters to a number of tilt options - 20°, 25° or 30°. Only a few movements are required to achieve the optimum tilt angle.

Overview: Conergy SolarFamulus

Experts know that flat roofs were practically made for photovoltaics. Solar modules can be raised and optimally aligned to the sun. Add to this the enormous potential of the often unused flat surfaces of commercial and industrial roofs. Conergy’s innovative solutions more than measure up to this potential.

In defiance of the wind. To the benefit of the yield. Installers face special challenges with flat roof systems: handling wind pressure and determining the required elevation and optimum tilt angle to secure the solar modules. In order to meet individual requirements, we have developed two solutions. One for load-carrying flat roofs as well as a self-supporting, aerodynamically optimised version for statically demanding flat roofs.

Areas of use | A  ll conventional flat roofs Installation | Pre-assembled components | Foldable for transportation | Three different tilt angles | P  ositioning with foot brackets or ground rails

"Next to revenue, durability and safety are what count for me in my solar energy system. That‘s why I have chosen Conergy quality."

Benefits | Simple transportation | Simple and fast assembly

Oliver Wiesenthal, Entrepreneur

Conergy SolarFamulus Air Minimum ballast. Maximum aerodynamics. From aeroplane engineer to system installer: roofs with low load-carrying capability require new thinking and creative solutions. That's why an expert in aerodynamics was in charge of the development of the Conergy SolarFamulus Air. What was created was a future-oriented solution. A mounting system with the aerodynamic principles of aeroplane wings – without roof penetration.

Overview: Conergy SolarFamulus Air Areas of use | F  lat roof with light-weight constructions | F  oils and bitumen roofs Installation | Low number of individual components | M  inimum ballasting of the ends of the system rows | For framed modules Benefits | No penetration of the roof | Aerodynamic design | G  reat stability even with very high wind pressure

Conergy free-field systems. Extra efficient. Extraordinarily flexible. Solar energy systems can be optimally adjusted and aligned to the sun in most types of open land. In order to maximize yields, we always advise our customers to select a solution that can be quickly and safely installed. After all, every manhour counts. The fewer manhours and materials you need, the better.

For the greatest demands. With clever additional uses. As with all Conergy mounting systems, our free-field versions are also made exclusively from high-quality aluminium and stainless steel for the greatest demands on durability and stability. Furthermore, with our mounting solutions, the land used can easily be farmed and maintained even with a solar energy system. The module edge of Conergy free-field systems is approximately 1 m above the ground.

"My ecological double effect? The Conergy free-field mounting system allows me to also use the area to graze my flock of sheep. Simply great." Gerhard Keufel, Farmer

Conergy SolarGiant Maximum area. Minimum effort. The name says it all: up to 45 m² installable module area per unit means the Conergy SolarGiant system lives up to its name. Considering its size and high efficiency, the installation effort remains surprisingly minimal. Typical Conergy.

Overview: Conergy SolarGiant Area of use | O  pen areas Installation | S  imple, foundation-based installation with a high degree of pre-assembly | For framed and unframed modules | Portrait and landscape module installation Benefits | M  ore installable module area per system unit | T  ime and cost savings due to preassembled parts
