INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL FOR FLAT ROOF SYSTEM Q.FLAT-G6 – Q CELLS
The cross brace connector
G
must be installed according to the project report. This is to be inserted halfway into a cross brace and
ballast brace
F
. Slide the following cross brace and ballast brace
F
over the cross brace connector
G
. The component combination
is fixed to the tower
E
with two M8x30 screws. Observe the tightening torque of 10 Nm. (Please observe the note MAINTENANCE)
PROCEDURE:
Insert the cross brace and ballast brace
F
in the centre of the tower
E
and push them in up to the marking. Screw the cross brace and
ballast brace
F
together as far as they will go using the two hexagon socket head screws. Observe the tightening torque of 10 Nm.
(Please observe the note MAINTENANCE)
The bracing has two functions. In the single version, it increases the static bond of the system and facilitates further work such as
pulling the cables and laying the modules, as it is more difficult for the base profile rows to slip. In the double version, it serves to
accommodate additional ballast. (see optional step 4.5.1)
With a continuous bracing of the main base profile rows, the potential equalisation of the system is carried out.

4.4 MOUNT CONNECTING COMPONENT CROSS
BRACE AND BALLAST BRACE F
NOTE:
The cross brace and ballast brace
F
must always be mounted on the tower towards the outer edge of the module field.
Ensure that the cross brace and ballast brace
F
have a sufficient bearing surface on the tower
E
(min. 15 mm). The position of the
cross brace and ballast brace
F
must always be taken from the current project report. If cross braces and ballast braces
F
are
planned continuously in a continuous double module row, they must be attached to the same side of the tower
E
.
