Modules  may  be  mounted  at  any  angle  from  horizontal  to  vertical.  Select  the  appropriate 
orientation to maximize sunlight exposure.   
 
A  gap  between  the  module  and  system  structure  or  ground  is  required  to  prevent  wire 
damage and to allow air to circulate behind the module. 
 
Take  care  to  follow  all  applicable  regulations,  especially  municipal  and  fire  codes,  when 
planning  and  executing  your  installation.  Do  not  remove  or  alter  the  module  frame. 
Additional mounting holes may damage the module and reduce the strength of the frame.

3.1 Mounting with Screws 

 

Secure the module to the structure using only the factory drilled mounting holes. 

 

Do not drill any additional holes in module frame (doing so would void the warranty).   

 

Use corrosion-proof fastening materials.   

 

A torque wrench must be used for assembly. In the examples shown, the tightening 

torque must be 20N

m.   

 

Refer to product datasheet for the module dimensions and mounting hole locations.
