Mounts for 6 or more solar PV modules are designed to be installed on 6”, 8”, or 10” NPS (nominal pipe size) steel pipes in Schedule 40 or 80.
Per the American National Pipe Standard, the outer diameters of the pipes must be 6.625”, 8.625”, and 10.75”, respectively.
The pipe schedule (SCH) determines the gauge or thickness of the pipe’s wall. In general, our mount designs will specify the most economical pipe size needed to support the array based on your site requirements.
