IR-05 Flat Roof Ballast System
The IR-05 Flat Roof Ballast System is the fastest, strongest, and most cost effective 5 degree ballast system on the market. Each base system can be assembled in less than 30 seconds, and modules can be mounted in under a minute, for a total install time of 5 minutes per module! We offer multiple options from 5-30 degrees and all are capable of racking solar modules of up to 700 Watts with no roof penetration. Our IR-05 and IR-10 are designed to clamp around a standard cinder block and the integrated handle allows one person to carry and place multiple base systems with weight without the fatigue caused by other ballasted basket type systems.
This product conforms to UL 2703 Mechanical and Bonding requirements.
Step 1: Place Weight & Assemble Base Systems
Step 2: Carry and Place on Roof
Step 3: Place Module on Flange Clamps
Step 4: Fold Bend Tabs to Lock Module in Place

LAYOUT
BONDING
Solar Module Bonding
The IR-F1 Rail-Less Solar Module Flange Clamp Bonding Brackets work to clamp the solar modules to the IR-05 bracket as well as provide bonding for the solar module rows. The spring steal sharp barbs will penetrate into the anodized aluminum flange of the solar module frame when the solar modules are locked into place with the integrated bend tabs. The weight of the solar module pushing onto the barbs also contributes to the pressure needed to penetrate the anodized aluminum frame.
Bonding Between Rows
For bonding between rows of modules, we offer 8" and 12" IR-B1 Bonding Jumpers that are UL 2703 recognized. The bonding jumpers have small internal bonding barbs and they clamp to the bottom inner flange of the solar modules to provide bonding from row to row.
FEATURES
Lightning Fast Assembly and Install
The IR-05 is the fastest, strongest, and most cost effective ballast systems on the market. Each base system can be assembled in less than 30 seconds, and modules can be mounted in under a minute, for a total install time of 5 minutes per module!
Strong, Simple Design
The IR-05 is designed to clamp around a standard cinder block and the integrated handle allows one person to carry and place multiple base systems with weight, without the fatigue caused by other ballasted basket type systems. This system is capable of racking solar modules of up to 700 Watts, and each bracket is equipped with a micro-inverter/solar optimizer mounting point.
Easy Module Mounting
The IntegraRack Ballast Systems take advantage of our own IR-F1 Rail-Less Module Flange Clamp Bonding Brackets. The IR-F1 uses stainless steel spring barbs that dig into the module flange to keep it from sliding while also bonding modules together. Three of these can be mounted to the IR-05 Bracket, one of which will be bolted in with the tube handle itself. Two IR-05 Brackets and six IR-F1 Brackets will be needed per module in your system after the starter row.
Quick Fold Bend Tabs
The Bend Tab Clamps incorporated into the top of our brackets are designed to be used with our revolutionary rail-less module clamping system (IR-F1). When quickly folded over with a flathead screwdriver, it clamps the solar module frame directly to the IR-F1 Rail-Less Module Flange Clamp Bonding Bracket, bonding it and locking the solar module firmly in place.
