The IR-40FSAA is proudly made in the USA with USA sourced aircraft grade aluminum and offers all of the same great features of our other BallastRack systems with the ability to be set closer to the exact angle needed for maximum performance in your region. This system is designed to rack solar modules of any size, even 800 Watt jumbo size solar panels are no match for the IR-40FSAA. With multiple innovative mounting options available to choose from, even soft sand or super rocky terrain is no problem at all for lightning-fast install times. Each IR-40FSAA frame can be assembled in less than 2 minutes, and with its unbelievable ability to rack modules of any size, this system is by far the most cost-effective adjustable ground mount racking system on the market today. Unlike some ground mounting systems, the IR-40FSAA doesn't require any concrete footings, post pounded poles, or hand shoveling dirt into small bins. The 15-40° adjustable angle can be set to offer optimal year-round energy production across most regions around the world, and with its easy to slide adjustable solar module height feature, it offers great ground clearance and a great angle for fast snow shedding.

This product conforms to UL 2703 Mechanical and Bonding requirements.

Part Number: IR-40FSAA0041

UPC: 85582600041

Material: Aircraft Grade Aluminum

Finish: Mill

Fixed adjustable ground mount frame from 15-40° in 2.5 degree increments that can be installed almost anywhere with multiple mounting configurations available. The IR-40FSAA sits 8" higher than our fixed systems for greater ground clearance and utilizes our own IR-F2 solar module bonding clamps (included).

Features:

Quick Initial Angle Adjustment - The key feature of the IR-40FSAA is that it offers the ability to set your panels within 2° of the ideal year-round sun angle at an affordable cost and throughout most of the continental United States. With the simple adjustable leg design each frame can be set to the desired angle in just seconds before mounting your panels.
Lightning Fast Assembly & Install - With its simple “U” shaped tubular aluminum rack frame design, each IR-40FSAA structural frame section can be assembled in less than 2 minutes, and the full start to finish installation time can be completed in less than 10 minutes per module section from frame assembly, to mounting or ballasting, to module installation and final slide height adjustment. This makes the IR-40FSAA up to 6x faster than traditional solar ground mount systems.
Universal Mounting - The IR-40FSAA is the most technologically advanced solar racking solution in the industry. Its extremely universal rack frame design can be mounted in 4 different ways with any size solar modules. Extremely rocky or challenging soil conditions are no match for the IR-40FSAA as it can be mounted using the available IR Earth Ballast™ System, IR Anchor Spike™ System, or simply anchor bolt the base frame directly to a concrete ballast slab, patio, cargo container or rooftop steel beam. The IR-40FSAA can even be Ballasted with concrete curb stops or flat style water tanks for permanent or temporary mounting solutions. This system also offers adjustable height for solar modules as they can be slid up and down along the flange clamps.
Lowest Cost Per kW - The IR-40FSAA is the most cost effective solar racking system on the market with its fast, easy installation and its ability to rack solar modules of any size. It is also much more versatile than other competing ground mount systems, and ballasted ground mounting options, as it does not require hours of shoveling dirt into a small opening, making it by far the lowest installed cost per Watt option on the market today. It’s multi-purpose design means that the same easy to warehouse and inexpensive to ship 10lb 5”x5”x48” boxed IR-40FSAA racking system frame can be utilized in a multitude of solar racking solutions.
No Limitation On Solar Module Size - The IR-40FSAA BallastRack System is the only solar module ground mount that is capable of racking solar modules of any size with no need for additional hardware. Each solar module that is racked sets the width between each frame section, and calculating space between frames is easy. Simply space the base tubes of the IR-40FSAA frames exactly 1 inch less than the width of your solar modules.
High-Strength Engineered & Tested For Class Leading Performance - The IR-40FSAA has been extensively engineered and outdoor lab tested with simulated real world wind and snow load conditions. With its aircraft grade 6061 T6 tubular aluminum frame, it is capable of withstanding incredible wind and snow loads (see online datasheet for more detailed specs). The IR-40FSAA’s angle can be adjusted to the perfect year round sun angle for most regions of the globe to maximizing annual energy production, and it is also an excellent angle for snow shedding.

MOUNTING OPTIONS

Base Ballast Mounting - Each IR-40FSAA can be mounted using sand bags, water tanks, concrete blocks, or concrete curb stops, but concrete cap blocks are the most cost effective for internal frame ballast material.
IR EarthBallast™ Mounting System -
Our EarthBallast mounting option is ideal for most terrain types, particularly when excess soil or crushed rock is available on-site. A skid-steer loader or tractor can be used to evenly distribute earth fill over the included geotextile material that is stretched across and epoxied to the top of each solar rack frame prior to the solar panels being installed, creating a strong heavy ballast with a clean and natural look when completed.

*1" Conduit Pipe / EMT (NOT included) is required to link the frames together and can be sourced at any local hardware or electrical supply store in 10' lengths, which is enough to cover two panels.

*We recommend using this system with two 3/8" concrete forming stakes for each frame to provide added strength and easy leveling of the system.
IR AnchorSpike™ Mounting System - Our IR AnchorSpike™ Kit provides enough materials to install up to 10 solar modules with this mounting option, and comes with our specially designed 33 inch barbed aluminum spikes and a super strong two part epoxy. The IR AnchorSpikes have a hollow structure with open barbs that allow the epoxy to flow deep into the soil and create a solid anchor rated for over 1,000 pounds of uplift per spike. Once in place, each IR-40FSAA frame is designed to clamp onto two AnchorSpikes when the carriage bolts at the ends are tightened, which allows for fast and easy leveling of the system. IR-AnchorSpike must be tested in soil at installation site to ensure it can withstand a minimum of 1,000 pounds of uplift.
Concrete Slab/Footing Anchor Bolt Mounting System - Our IR Concrete Anchor Bolt Mounting Kit provides enough materials to install up to 10 solar modules with this mounting option, and comes with strong concrete anchor bolts and two concrete drill bits. Each IR-40FSAA frame can be direct bolted to pre-cast concrete slabs/footings or most existing concrete surfaces, such as a patio (site specific engineering required), for the strongest possible wind resistance.
