There is a similar balasted rack from a company called Ecolibrium. http://www.triplepundit.com/2012/07/ecolibrium-solar-cutting-edge-simplicity-pv-solar-installation/.

The fly in the ointment is that if the roof is not totally flat, the modules flex along the rows to make up the difference. The company representative seems to think that this is just fine. What do you think?

I do not think that they have a 30 degree option, but I have been pretty impressed with <http://dynoraxx.com/>Dynoraxx tool-less approach and using fiberglass non-conductive material ( read no grounding of racking). Now all we need is a fiberglass non-conducting module frame!

The DPW POWER-FAB BRM has more flexibility with row spacing, but I found it to be pretty expensive.

Hi Ryan,



We have used the AET Rayport stainless steel ballasted racking system on dozens of installations and have been quite satisfied with the light ballast required (all open racking), integral module grounding, lightweight of materials (pressed stainless steel) and quickness of assembly.

Anyone have recommendations for a ballasted roof racking manufacturer? Tilts of 30-degrees or more would be best.
