• REC Alpha Pure Series
A six-point mounting configuration secures the panel on three continuous rails (or other support structures) with three clamps on each side of the panel in
the zones marked below:
GR

760 mm [29.9 in] - 840 mm [33.1 in]
100 mm [3.9 in] - 430 mm [16.9 in]
430 mm [16.9 in] - 100 mm [3.9 in]
CAUTION
• The middle rail must not be installed on the side of the junction box where the cables exit.
• A total of three continuous rails (or other support structures) must be used to secure the panel.
• The center point of each clamp and the minimum grip length must be fully located within the marked zone to be rated to the given value
(fig. 12).
