The loads in the table are related to the mechanical stability of the solar modules. The mechanical stability of the
mounting system including clamps has to be evaluated by the system supplier. The listed test load values have
been determined with the following clamp parameters: clamp width = 40 mm and clamp depth = 10 mm.
Ä
The system installer is responsible for the determination of location-specific load requirements.
Ä Modules bend under loads. Therefore, sharp objects (e.g. screws, ballast stones, rail ends, rails with burrs or sharp
corners) must not be placed near the module backside so as not to touch the laminate under load.
Ä Ensure that the junction boxes do not touch the mounting structure (e.g. shorts rails, ballast, etc.) or the roof top
under load. Clamps or insertion profiles etc. must not touch the glass (even under load).
Ä Unbalanced loads (e.g. snow overhangs, snowdrifts) which result in locally significantly increased loads must be
removed or avoided by technical measures.

Ä
Ensure that module frame is fixed directly on the rail of the substructure (no spacer allowed between the module
and substructure).
CL1b Ä Using of short mounting rails are permissible, if they overlap under the module less than 285 mm. Minimum clear-
ance between frame bottom edge and roof top must be ≥ 30 mm.
CL1a, CL2a,

Ä
Ensure, that the connection cables of the junction box do not run between laminate and mounting rails.
CL1b, CL2b,
CL3, mCL3,
FB2, mFB2 Ä A minimum support depth of 15 mm is required on the back side of the module.
CL5
Ä
The minimum required support depth on the module backside is 10 mm on long frame side and 15 mm on short
frame side.
IP1
Ä
Ensure minimum support depth of 15 mm on the backside and 10 mm on the front side of the module.
TC1 Ä Ensure minimum support depth of 12 mm on the backside and 10 mm on the front side of the module.

Ä
Use M8 corrosion-proof screws and washers (diameter ≥ 15.8 mm) for mounting slots (Detail A, Fig.1) and M6 cor-
rosion-proof screws and washers or bobtails for tracker slots (diameter ≥ 13 mm; Detail B, Fig. 1). Mounting screws
and washers should have the same material properties.
TB2a, TB2b Ä Mounting rails need to extend beyond the middle of mounting holes by at least 17 mm.
mCL3, mFB2 Ä Mounting rails need to extend beyond the middle of clamps or middle of mounting holes by at least 20 mm. Clamps
must not extend beyond the mounting rails.
