The S-5-ZH Mini (“ZH” stands for Zip-Hinge) is specifically designed for round “bulb” seam configurations. Mount solar and other light-duty applications to “bulb” seams, such as BEMO, Kalzip®, Zip-Rib® and other similar profiles.
When mounted at a single-piece clip (or halter) location, the hinge design of the ZH Mini prevents the clamp from pinning the roof to the clip (halter), so roof panels slide freely over the clip (halter) preserving the roof’s freedom of thermal movement.
In like fashion to the Z-Mini, the ZH Mini can also be paired with the S-5-PVKIT for an economical, time and labor-saving rail-less (direct-attach™) solar mounting solution. Clamps and PVKITs as well as other solar racking can be placed where desired – no need to avoid clip (halter) locations.
The ZH Mini clamp attaches to the seam with a single setscrew. All Mini clamps undergo rigorous negative load normal-to-seam (uplift) testing. Please refer to our load testing for holding capacities of this clamp on different materials and seam specifics.
