SAFETY SOLUTIONS FOR photovoltaic systems



![]()



Installing anchorage devices such as lifelines and collective protection systems is essential to ensure operator safety during the installation and maintenance of photovoltaic systems.
These devices are crucial for preventing accidents and falls from height, which may lead to serious consequences. The presence of adequate safety systems not only protects the health and safety of workers, but also ensures that operations are carried out efficiently and without interruption.


Furthermore, a safe working environment contributes to maintaining the quality of the installation and the long-term performance of the photovoltaic system, supporting reliable and sustainable energy production.
Lifelines and protection systems such as guardrails, ladders, walkways, and Type D fall protection rails are tested and certified in accordance with current standards:
UNI CEN/TS 16415 : 2013

The SDSTEP cage ladder range is designed to allow quick and easy installation wherever access to structures, bridges, and/ or work areas with height differences from the starting surface is required.
The cage ladder can adapt to countless installation support geometries and profiles thanks to the use of modular components.





The railings in the SDRAIL PRO range have been designed for quick and easy installation, creating a safe working environment, particularly in areas subject to frequent maintenance and inspection activities where there is a risk of falls from height.
Depending on the type of supporting structure, the guardrail can be installed as:
• Wall-mounted installation
• Floor-mounted installation

• Tilting installation
• Corrugated sheet metal installation
• Self-supporting installation



Thanks to the use of dedicated fixing accessories, the railings can adapt to countless roof edge geometries and installation support profiles.




The walkways in the SDWALK range are designed and manufactured in compliance with UNI EN 14122:2016, allowing easy installation wherever a safe passageway is required to move from one point to another.
They are supplied pre-assembled in sections with a maximum length of 2–3 metres, depending on the final configuration. The stringer and tread system is pre-drilled to allow the connection of the different sections.


The rigid rail fall protection system in the SDTRACK range allows maintenance work at height to be carried out in complete safety.


The SDTRACK range has been tested and successfully passed the requirements of the relevant technical standards for the following configurations: - FALL ARREST USE - SUSPENSION USE
The rail profiles can be connected using dedicated connectors, which can be installed either near the fixing brackets or along the rail profile itself.

FALL ARREST USE





FALL ARREST USE/SUSPENSION USE


The upper fixing is carried out using rivets already tested and certified on simulated supports in the test field.


Installation on flat, pitched or ridge roofs. Can be fixed directly to steel, timber and reinforced concrete structures.
Compatible with the wall line and the flat line. Curves: permitted with curved head.
Adaptable to various types of panels/sheet metal with different rib spacings up to 25 cm.
The upper fixing is carried out using rivets already tested and certified on simulated supports in the test field.




System featuring deformable and modular anchor supports with various base configurations, also available for masonry and/or less resistant substrates. The anchor supports can also be installed individually as TYPE A single-point anchors.
