End Clamp Description
End clamps of various varieties are available on the market to meet a variety of installation needs.
Fixed-end clamps, adjustable end clamps, and end clamps with integrated grounding elements are all typical varieties.
Fixed end clamps provide a stable and secure connection, while adjustable end clamps allow for panel tilt angle flexibility.
End clamps with integrated grounding elements provide electrical safety by efficiently grounding the solar panels.
Spare Parts for an Ordinary End Clamp Set
- 1 AL 6005 end clamp body: The main body of the end clamp, made from durable and corrosion-resistant materials.
- 1 SS bolt and 1 SS flange nut: Fasteners that secure the clamp body to the mounting rail and solar panel frame.
- 2 pcs SS spring washers: Placed between the clamp body and solar panel frame, rubber washers prevent damage to the panel while providing a secure grip.
Production Procedure of End Clamps
- Material Selection: High-quality aluminum or stainless steel is used for strength, durability, and environmental resistance.
- Cutting and Shaping: Precision tools and machinery cut and shape the chosen material into required forms.
- Surface Treatment: Clamp components undergo anodization or coating to improve corrosion resistance.
Installation of End Clamps for Solar Panel Systems
- Positioning: Place the end clamps at the edges of the solar panel frame, aligning them with the mounting rails.
- Attaching Bolts: Insert bolts through the clamp body and mounting rail holes, then fasten securely with nuts.
- Applying Rubber Washers: Attach rubber pads inside the clamp body aligned with the solar panel frame to prevent damage.
- Tightening: Use a torque wrench to tighten bolts to manufacturer specifications for a secure connection.
- Repeat: Repeat for all end clamps along the solar panel edges.
Advantages of End Clamps
- Unwavering Stability: End clamps ensure rock-solid security, keeping panels firmly attached even in harsh weather.
- Vibration Protection: They shield panels from vibrations caused by external factors, maintaining optimal efficiency.
- Effortless Maintenance: Designed for easy inspection and replacement, minimizing upkeep time.
- Flexibility Redefined: Adaptable to various panel sizes and mounting systems for customized installations.
