Zep Solar
Solar Module Integrated Rail System
Zep compatible solar panels integrate the rack system with the solar panel, eliminating costly and bulky aluminum rails. The patented Zep System enables rapid coupling and automatic grounding of solar module arrays. The Zep System (U.S. Patent #7,592,537, U.S. & Int'l Patents Pending) works with all solar modules that include a Zep Groove on the outside surface of an otherwise conventional solar module frame.
The heart of the Zep System is a specialized stainless steel fastener called the Zep. This quarter-turn coupling rapidly locks into the Zep Groove, enabling a drop-in installation action for one side of each PV module. The Zep also cuts through the module frame's anodization to secure a solid ground path while simultaneously allowing for real-world factors like tolerance take-up and thermal expansion. Zep grounding technology creates a fully redundant hyper-bonded grounding matrix, making the Zep System the best solution for electrical safety. The Zep coupling is integrated into our two core components: the Interlock and the Leveling Foot.
