PV Mounting system PMT Ghost
Terrifyingly simple
The mounting of photovoltaic modules on trapezoidal sheet roofs becomes with PMT GHOST a simple and complete solution in just a few steps. Low material usage reduces system costs. The detent clip only need to be fastened at specific points. The mounting system is installed in just a few steps – quickly, inexpensively and safely.
Maximum variability
Roof inclination up to 60 degrees
Whether pitched or flat roofs – PMT GHOST can be mounted on all trapezoidal sheet roofs with an inclination angle of 0-60°.
Mounting transverse and upright
PMT GHOST allows both transverse and upright mounting on the top chords.
The visible advantages
of an invisible system
PMT GHOST combines revolutionary design and quality. It offers efficiency through many years of intensive product development. Flexible and fast assembly makes this PV mounting system an all-rounder for trapezoidal sheet metal roofing. Another advantage is the storage, logistics and assembly optimization.
1
Unlimited stacking
Thanks to stackable components, this PV mounting system is maximally logistics-optimized.
2
Minimized material use
Minimalism is a top priority for us. With only three components, PMT GHOST is our most efficient and revolutionary mounting system for trapezoidal sheet metal roofs.
3
Assembly in record time
With only one assembly tool, PMT GHOST is shockingly quick and easy to install. Continuous rails without system separations enable efficient installation. A 100kWp system can be installed by one person in just 6 hours.

Maximally optimized for
logistics and warehouse
Getting the material to the job site is a complex and costly feat with conventional systems. With the stackable rails from PMT GHOST, the available capacities can be utilized to the maximum. Logistics costs are minimized considerably and the associated effort is reduced to an optimum.

thanks to stackable design
Stackability is also an added value in the warehouse. Capacities can be optimally utilized, saving storage costs and making all components available in one place. The modules are fastened at the top via the detent clips. This makes their use much more variable.
Complete with only three components
Unlike many other solar mounting systems, PMT GHOST essentially consists of three components: Rail, detent clips for fixing the modules, and self-drilling screws that are fastened without swarf. This makes mounting extremely fast and easy to handle.
Shockingly quickly mounted
Assembly in record time!
The simple assembly saves time and man power. The system is fastened with just one tool. The PV system is mounted in just a few steps.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
For which roof pitches is PMT GHOST suitable?
PMT GHOST can be mounted on all roof pitches from 0 – 60°.
How often must the rail be screwed to the roof?
The screw spacing is determined individually for each project and cannot be defined in general. Decisive parameters include the module size, the wind load and the type of roof.
Does the trapezoidal sheet keep 100% tight even after screwing PMT GHOST rails?
Yes, thanks to the 2 mm protective band, the roof is 100% tight and impermeable. This is made of EPDM material, which is extremely robust and weather-resistant and protects against unwanted water penetration. The sealing with the washers at the screws provides additional protection.
Do I need thermal separation of the individual module fields?
No, thanks to the continuous rails, installation without mechanical stresses of the modules is possible. Thus, thermally induced fluctuations of the module fields can be compensated and no separation is required
Is there a maximum roof length when mounting PMT GHOST?
No, with the help of the continuous rail, roofs of all lengths are suitable for mounting a PV system. The rails are available in lengths of 2200mm, 3300mm as well as 4400mm.
How long does it take to install a 100 kWp system with PMT GHOST?.
PMT GHOST can be mounted faster than any other of our PV system due to its efficient design. A single person needs only about 6 hours to mount a 100 kWp system.
Do the rails have to be cut to size at the construction site?
The PV mounting system does not require any system separations. This means that it can be installed endlessly. Only the last rail of a row must be cut to size on site.
For which module frame heights is this PV system suitable?
Modules with a height of 30 – 40 mm can be installed. Two universal detention clip are sufficient for the middle and end piece. There are also no restrictions in terms of length and width. This contributes to a shockingly simple and fast assembly of PMT GHOST.
How do I release the detent clip if modules need to be replaced?
For this purpose, we have developed our own tool for disassembly. With it, you can easily loosen the detent clips and change the desired solar modules.
Can I fix PMT GHOST even on old and uneven roofs?
Due to the wear of the roofs, the chords are no longer uniformly at one height, which is why difficulties may arise. Applicability on uneven roofs must be decided on a case-by-case basis.
Is there a distance gauge to help with assembly?
Yes, we will provide you with one spacing gauge each for transverse and upright mounting.
Does PMT GHOST have a general building approval (abZ)?
The general building approval (allgemeine bauaufsichtliche Zulassung) has already been applied for. Since we have just launched PMT GHOST on the market, we are still in the process here.
What requirements must the trapezoidal roof meet in order to be able to install PMT GHOST on it?
There are no restrictions regarding the top and low chords. For trapezoidal roofs made of aluminum and steel, the roof must have a sheet thickness of 0.63 – 1.0 mm. Steel roofs should be at least 0.75 mm thick according to EN.
Can PMT GHOST also be installed on sandwich trapezoidal roofs?
No, we currently do not have any approvals from sandwich trapezoidal manufacturers.
Is drainage integrated?
No, thanks to our innovative and qualitative design, no drainage is necessary.
Does the snow load zone have an influence on the assembly?
In snow load zones 1 and 2, PMT GHOST can be mounted without restrictions. From a snow load zone of 3, we recommend mounting the modules crosswise. The exact mounting conditions depend on the module and the individual influences, which we check separately.
GHOST
Our goal was to provide the market with a photovoltaic mounting system that can be installed quickly and safely, while being more economical than classic systems. With PMT GHOST, we offer an innovative solution for photovoltaic mounting on trapezoidal roofs with real economic, visual and practical added value.
