Solar power generation coated steel pipe

Why is steel piping important for solar energy?

Solar power is becoming a booming industry as more businesses and homeowners shift away from fossil fuels. Steel piping plays an essential role in the solar energy industry. In this post, we will explore how steel and steel piping is used to create a high-quality and sustainable energy system from start to finish.

Why is pipe finishing important for a solar system?

The pipe finishing must be correctly tailored for the solar industry to maximize the efficiency of the system and its ability to last over many years. It will also help prevent friction as liquid passes through the pipes and reduces leaks and degradation, which can be dangerous and expensive to repair.

How are solar pipes dimensioned?

This expansion in length must be taken into account through appropriate fastening (compensators) and the installation of expansion bends or bendable joints in the pipe. Solar pipes are dimensioned in the same way as heating pipes.

What finishes are used in solar power?

The best finishes used in this industry are typically polyester powder, epoxy, polypropylene, polyvinylidene fluoride, or fluoropolymer coatings. These provide protection from natural environmental factors and also resist chemicals and temperature changes. Discover the role of steel pipes in solar power.

What is the best corrosion protection for solar mounting structures?

Your contacts when it comes to high-performance corrosion protection for solar mounting structures: Arne Schreiber, Product Management and Jennifer Schulz, Surface Development. ZM Ecoprotect ® Solar offers several advantages compared to pure zinc coatings.

Why do copper & stainless steel pipes expand so much?

Due to the high temperature differences to be expected, the copper or stainless steel pipes expand several times compared to a conventional hot water installation. This expansion in length must be taken into account through appropriate fastening (compensators) and the installation of expansion bends or bendable joints in the pipe.
