Appendix A: Solar Models: Mounting the Solar Panel to the Pole
LARGE Solar Panel Mounting Bracket Installation Instructions (For 65W/85W/90W/120W panels)
•
The adjustable solar panel mounting bracket shown is mounted to a 4 1/2" OD round pole. The bracket will
accommodate U-bolts as small as 2 1/2 OD, however a 4 1/2" OD is recommended due to wind resistance on the
solar panel.
•
The bracket can also be bolted to a flat mounting surface using the two 3/8 inch bolt holes in the center of the
main bracket.
•
Brackets have pre-drilled slots for mounting on 3½" - 4½" diameter poles. If you wish to attach to smaller or larger
poles, use the slots provided on the bracket mount and use the appropriate size banding clamps.
•
Radarsign provides two banding clamps that will fit 3½" - 4½" diameter poles. For larger or smaller poles,
customer must provide
clamps.
(
Radarsign sells an Astro-Bracket that will mount signs to poles that are large diameter poles up to 17" OD.)
