5 - MOUNTING
The Pole Mount SRTP-PM-1-x is designed to require minimum servicing or maintenance work. For safe and
reliable operation the system should be checked regularly.
All nuts, bolts and connection parts are stainless steel to strength class 70. If any parts are replaced
they should be replaced with parts of the same specification.
All data provided is based on the manufacturer´s specifications.
This manual is an installation guide and does not replace good engineering practice. The local in-
staller should check and verify the installation carefully.

5.3 CALCULATION OF THE BEAM LENGTH AND INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS
This rack is adjustable for different sizes of PV-modules. To assemble the Pole-Mount some dimen-
sions have to be calculated. Ascertain the right installation dimensions as follows:
1. Find the right PV-Module width “W”.
2. Write down the number of PV-Modules you
want to mount. “N”
3. Calculate the Beam length L1
EXAMPLE:
Number of PV-Modules N = _____________
Width of the PV-Module W = ____________
L1 = ___________IN. N X W + ( N -1 ) + 6 INCHES = ___________IN.
WE RECOMMEND THAT NUTS, BOLTS AND SCREWS ARE CHECKED FOR APPROPRIATE
TIGHTNESS 6 MONTHS AFTER INSTALLATION, AND THEN EVERY YEAR.5 - MOUNTING
5.4 INSTALLATION OF THE SUN-RAC TOP POLE-MOUNT PM-1-X
Parts of the mounting system are very heavy so care must be taken during handling, un-
packing and installation. Appropriate safety equipment including safety gloves and safety
shoes must be worn at all times.
Please follow the steps below for the Installation of the SUN-RAC Top Pole Mount
1. Starting Situation. The Pole is fitted into the Ground
2. Place the Cap on the Pole and adjust in to South. The long axis of the Cap②should be oriented to
East/West direction.
3. Fix the Cap with three Bolt M10x25 to the Pole. Please use a torque wrench (32Nm).
