GameChange Solar, a solar tracker and tilt rack solutions company, has launched a rivet connection option for module mounting in large-scale solar farms.
The Connecticut-based company said the new rivet solution is an alternative to traditional bolted module connections.
Bolted connections between the racking system and the modules can be replaced with rivets to allow an untorqued connection to pre-punched module mounting holes, reducing installation time and eliminating the need for torque checks throughout the life of the project.
The two-piece rivet was tested to validate performance and reliability at UK product testing company Intertek and GameChange Solar’s research and design facility and was found to comply with applicable sections of the UL 2703 standard.
Additionally, internal testing at the company’s installation training center evaluated installation and removal tools, providing practical insights for field deployment.
GameChange Solar Oceania and Southeast Asia (SEA) Managing Director Vaibhav Joshi said that by integrating rivet-mounted modules into the Genius Tracker system, customers have greater flexibility in the way they building and maintaining solar energy projects.
“This innovation ensures streamlined installation and long-term reliability, making solar energy deployment even more efficient,” Joshi said.
