Rail meets plate.

easySPEED 2 — East/West flat roof mounting system for photovoltaics

general

Our innovative easySPEED 2 flat roof mounting system combines the stability of a rail system with the flexibility of a panel system. This PV substructure system was specially developed for flat roofs of all types — from gravel to foil/bitumen to green roofs in the modular version easyGREEN — and is ideal for east-west facing photovoltaic systems. Thanks to large support plates, easySPEED 2 ensures optimal load distribution without roof penetration (up to 5° roof pitch). In terms of load distribution, the system is unrivalled on the market: Even with soft roof insulation, only minimal point loads occur, meaning that there is no need to fear damage to the roof covering. Even with extreme snow loads in alpine regions, you can use the optional heavy-duty or Alpine version Sleep calmly — it carries snow loads of up to 5.4 kN/m². In short: easySPEED 2 makes your flat roof a solid basis for maximum PV yields, while at the same time treating the roof gently and making installation easy.

Load distribution and roof protection

One of the outstanding strengths of easySPEED 2 is the highest load distribution thanks to extra large support plates. These large basic elements evenly distribute the weight of the solar modules and ballast on the roof and thus reduce point loads to a minimum. This effectively prevents pressure points or damage to the roof sealing — a decisive advantage, particularly for sensitive roof structures with soft thermal insulation. The sophisticated, economical ballasting of the system also ensures that maximum stability is achieved with as little additional weight as possible.

easySPEED 2 remains reliable even under extreme snow loads. The optional heavy-duty or alpine version is specially designed for snowy regions and handles snow loads of up to 5.4 kN/m². This makes the system suitable even for high-alpine locations without sacrificing safety. Despite this robustness, easySPEED 2 comes without roof penetration off — up to a roof pitch of 5°, the system can be installed completely ballasted. Your roof remains intact and waterproof, as no holes are required (roof anchors are provided as an addition if the slope is higher). In short: easySPEED 2 combines roof protection and load-bearing capacity in a unique way so that installers and roofers can work with peace of mind.

Safety and stability

easySPEED 2 stands for proven safety and long-term stability of the PV system. The system has a tested lightning current carrying capacity and continuous potential compensation. This means that the construction can safely dissipate currents in the event of a lightning strike and that all metal components are electrically connected to each other — an increase in safety for the installer and system. In many cases, a separate lightning protection is no longer required, as easySPEED 2 already has this function integrated. For the operator and the electrician, this means peace of mind and less additional effort when grounding the system.

In addition, the static reliability of the system has been extensively proven. easySPEED 2 was tested in a wind tunnel and verified through static calculations. The construction can withstand wind loads of up to 2.4 kN/m² — even on higher buildings and in wind-intensive locations. Thanks to this wind tunnel-tested aerodynamic design, the system remains securely in place even during storms. ALUMERO offers a heavy-duty version of the system for particularly demanding applications. This reinforced version is designed for extreme conditions (e.g. high wind zones, exposed buildings or special static requirements) and ensures reliable installation even there. Overall, the construction is so stable that contiguous modular fields of up to 21 × 21 meters can be realized — ideal for large projects on wide flat roof areas. With easySPEED 2, you are investing in a system that meets all safety requirements, from lightning protection to statics to storm and snow load protection.

Flexibility and versatility

Flexibility is a top priority for easySPEED 2 — both in terms of installation and in the types of modules that can be used. Thanks to a well-thought-out support adapter, the modules are stored tension-free on the substructure. This innovative detail prevents mechanical tensions in the module frame and in the assembly structure that could occur as a result of temperature changes. This does not result in a “caterpillar effect” in which rows of modules could shift over time — everything stays in place even in the event of severe temperature fluctuations.

The system is compatible with virtually all common module types and sizes. Whether standard modules or larger high-performance modules — easySPEED 2 offers Freedom of module sizes and can accommodate modules with widths of around 950 to 1500 mm and lengths of 1500 to 2500 mm. It doesn't matter whether the modules are to be clamped on the short or the long side — the system supports both clamp orientations for maximum flexibility when dividing the field. Maintenance corridors can also be easily integrated: You can leave lanes up to 600 mm wide between the module fields without jeopardizing stability. This makes subsequent inspection and maintenance work considerably easier and meets the current requirements of professional plant operators.

The versatility of easySPEED 2 is also reflected in its customization options to meet different project requirements. The system can be configured both in east/west orientation (for evenly distributed income over the day) and — alternatively — in south orientation, depending on the desired yield profile. It can be used on flat roofs with a low roof pitch as well as on roofs with a slight slope (up to 5° without additional mounting). With optional accessories and the heavy-duty version mentioned above, easySPEED 2 is even ready for special applications. In short: Whether it's a small commercial roof or a large industrial project, whether standardized modules or special formats — this mounting system adapts to your requirements and remains stable and secure at all times.

Quick assembly and efficient logistics

For tradesmen such as solar engineers, roofers and electricians, every minute counts on the construction site. easySPEED 2 was therefore optimised for rapid assembly and minimal use of tools. Actually enough a single tool for the complete installation — all connections in the system are fixed with a uniform screw size, so that there is no need to constantly change bits or keys. Most of the easySPEED 2 components are pre-assembled and can be assembled intuitively, which drastically reduces set-up time. According to the manufacturer, up to 1 kWp of module output can be installed in just 5 minutes with two installers — an impressive value that can significantly reduce your installation costs.

easySPEED 2 also scores points across the board in terms of logistics. The construction requires just a few, cleverly designed components, which are all handy, lightweight and short. This not only makes handling on the roof easier, but also transportation and storage: More material fits onto pallets and vans, which saves transport costs, and on construction sites, the parts are easy to move, even in narrow elevators or narrow stairwells. Wholesalers also appreciate this compact design — it enables space-saving storage in the depot. In addition, ALUMERO already supplies the support plates with pre-assembled structural protection mats made of robust polyester fleece. These protective mats (without plasticizers) are placed under the plates and prevent scratches or damage to the roof seal without the fitter having to cut and lay out extra mats on site. Overall, the sophisticated features of easySPEED 2 significantly reduce installation time and costs while minimizing the risk of errors during installation.

In summary, easySPEED 2 benefits from a whole range of time-saving and logistical advantages:

• Tool minimization: All assembly work can be carried out with just one tool.
• Uniform connection technology: Only one screw type/size for all connections, which simplifies assembly (no need to search for different screws or bits).
• Factory preparation: Pre-assembled components such as protective mats further speed up installation.
• Compact components: Short profiles and lightweight elements make transportation, handling on the roof and storage easier.

For the installer, this means less effort, fewer sources of error and faster project completion. And for wholesalers and resellers: an attractive product that saves costs through efficient logistics in sales and warehousing.

Sustainability and quality

In addition to technology and performance, easySPEED 2 also impresses in terms of sustainability and material quality — an aspect that is becoming increasingly important for many customers. ALUMERO manufactures its assembly systems from its own metagreen alloy, which means that recycled aluminum is mostly used here. This high-quality secondary aluminum has up to 80% recycled content, which drastically reduces CO₂ emissions during production. Without sacrificing strength, this makes it possible to significantly reduce the ecological footprint of the assembly system. For environmentally conscious craft businesses and customers, this is a strong argument: They can be sure that they are using a product that saves resources and contributes to climate protection. ALUMERO's metagreen alloy is a real statement of sustainability and is actively being sought after by more and more customers.

easySPEED 2 also sets standards when it comes to quality. All components are made from durable, corrosion-resistant materials: high-strength aluminum (alloys EN AW-6060/6063/6005) and galvanized steel for structural parts, supplemented by stainless steel screws (A2-70). This selection of materials guarantees a long service life of the substructure even under harsh weather conditions. Thermal expansions are extremely low due to the railless construction, and the modular design allows stress-free installation, which supports the modules' resistance to aging. We are convinced of the durability of our system — and that is why we offer a 25-year warranty on easySPEED 2 aluminum components. This gives installers and plant operators additional security and demonstrates confidence in product quality.

In short, easySPEED 2 combines ecological responsibility with first-class workmanship. You will receive an assembly system “Made in EU” that is not only technical, but also sustainable and of high quality — an advantage that you can highlight to end customers and clients.
