 Distance between outer edge of module and middle of the clamp. 

² Describes the maximum module surface load (vertical to the module surface) regarding safety factors (e.g. EUROCODE). For this 
purpose, the load value determined by load tests according to various criteria: laminate overlay, plastic deformation, module failure, 
and were divided with a safety factor. The minimum calculated load value corresponds to the maximum permitted load.

UNTING OPTION CL1

 

Ä

Ensure, that the subconstruction does not run below the junction box.

 

Ä

Ensure, that the connection cables of the junction box don‘t run between laminate and substructure.

MOUNTING OPTION CL1 EXTENDED

 

Ä

Ensure, that there’s distance of minimum 1.77 in (45 mm) between laminate backside and subconstruction respectively 
that the distance between module frame backside and substructure is minimum 0.79 in (20 mm).

 

Ä

Ensure, that the connection cables of the junction box don‘t run between laminate and substructure.

MOUNTING OPTION CL4

 

Ä

Ensure, that the subconstruction runs exactly below the frame, not below the laminate (module less frame).

MOUNTING OPTIONS FB1 AND FB2

 

Ä

Ensure, that the connection cables of the junction box don‘t run between laminate and substructure.

• 

Use M8 corrosion-proof screws and washers (diameter 0.63 in (16 mm)).
