Storage Considerations
PanelClaw
recommends
installing
the
racking
components shortly after delivery to the project site. If
clawFR components are not deployed immediately, they
should be stored in a well-ventilated, dry location.
Otherwise, moisture can form between the packed
components which may cause staining and/or white
rust. Significant white rust formation may decrease the
coating service life and, in extreme cases, the
component performance.
If storage onsite is unavoidable, remove the plastic
and/or carboard wrapping from the exterior of the
packaging and cover with canvas or place components
under an open sided tent. Note the use of a plastic cover
does more harm than good as it prevents the product
from breathing and causes condensation. Storing parts
in any other manner is at the
customer’s
own
risk.
PanelClaw is not liable for claims related to improper
storage and any such claims are not covered by the
product warranty.

Operations & Maintenance
See O&M Manual, 9910050 found on PanelClaw.com, for
initial inspection recommendations including steps that can
be performed only during construction.
Sub Array Dimensions
Each PV system is unique and is frequently made up of
multiple sub arrays. The Racking Construction Set, which must
be onsite at all times during construction, details sub array
dimensions and location on the roof. Review the Racking
Construction Set in its entirety to prevent unnecessary rework
during site construction.
The furthest extent of the racking components or modules of
adjacent sub arrays, whichever defines the outermost array
boundaries, must be separated by
at least
the minimum
dimensions documented in the Racking Construction Set.
