The New Benchmark for Photovoltaic System Walkways

In photovoltaic rooftop systems, a sturdy walkway is required to bear the footsteps of maintenance personnel and ensure the safety and efficiency of the photovoltaic system. ZAM steel walkway (zinc-aluminum-magnesium alloy coated steel) is emerging as a revolutionary choice for photovoltaic walkway materials, with its comprehensive performance far exceeding that of traditional materials.

1. Safety First - The anti-slip design keeps technicians away from fragile flat glass and fragile roof membranes.

2. Maintenance Speed - Technicians can perform maintenance simply by walking along the walkway.

3. Roof Lifespan - Frequent walking of personnel is transferred to the walkway to prevent micro cracks in the roof film and joints.

Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: Aluminum forms a dense protective layer, zinc provides sacrificial anode protection, and magnesium enhances the self-healing ability of the coating. Even if the coating surface is scratched, the magnesium element can migrate to the damaged area to form a new protective layer, significantly delaying the appearance of red rust. Its corrosion resistance is typically 5-10 times that of traditional galvanized steel, and is particularly suitable for harsh environments such as coastal and industrial pollution.

Outstanding strength and rigidity: Steel itself has high strength and rigidity. The ZAM steel walkway can easily bear the loads of maintenance personnel, tools, equipment, and snow accumulation, and will not deform or collapse over a long period of use, ensuring safe and stable passage. It is more elastic than FRP (fiberglass-reinforced plastic) walkways and has greater load-bearing capacity.

Excellent fire resistance: Steel is a Class A non-combustible material and fully meets the requirements of building fire protection standards. In the event of a fire, it will not burn or release toxic smoke, providing safety guarantees for personnel evacuation and fire rescue.

Long-lasting durability: FRP walkways suffer from resin aging and powdering due to long-term exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays, resulting in decreased strength, surface deterioration, and color fading, which affects appearance and service life. In contrast, the ZAM steel walkway has a longer service life and can match the 25-year design lifespan of the photovoltaic system, significantly reducing life cycle costs.

Stable installation performance: The steel walkway is easy to be firmly connected to the roof steel structure through welding or bolts, with strong wind resistance and capable of ensuring the overall stability of the system in strong winds.
