To maintain the modules’ Class C fire rating, the fire class of the roof and building
materials should be higher than Class C. The fire safety rating of this module is
valid only when mounted in the manner specified in the mechanical mounting
instructions.
Do not install modules at locations that come with direct contact of water
collections, salt water or any aggressive environmental condition.
Do not install the modules near flames or flammable materials or locations with
hazardous materials.
Do not make any modifications to the module frame.
Top or bottom clamping methods will vary and are dependent on the mounting
structures. Follow the mounting guidelines recommended by the mounting system
supplier.
Clamp material should be anodized aluminum alloy or stainless steel
Each module must be securely fastened at a minimum of four points on two
opposite sides. The clamps should be positioned symmetrically.
