Assembly distance metal sheets
It is possible to mount metal sheets between the collectors for a homogenous appearance. The distance metal
sheets are only assembled for optical aspects and do not have any functional influence on the system. Therefore,
the distance metal sheets have to be ordered seperately and are not necessarily included in the delivery.
For the collector types FKA 240 V and FKA 270 V in every gap between the collectors two distance metal sheets are
mounted. For the collectors FKA 240 H and 270 H the assembly of one distance metal sheet is planned. In case of multi-
row systems, the distance metal sheets are mounted as described. The distance metal sheets can be mounted from above
or below.

The distance metal sheet is inserted from below into the collector
grooves.
Fig. 2 and 3
In case of vertical collectors or rather in case of multi-row assembly
of the collectors further distance metal sheets are inserted
subsequently from below. The lower distance metal sheet must be
pushed over the upper one to the notches.
Afterwards, the distance metal sheets are pushed upwards.
Fig. 4
The distance metal sheet is pushed so far until it is flush with the
lip (collector covering). The distance metal sheet is sticked in the
collector groove to protect it against slipping out.

To avoid injury, it is recommended to use a timber to push the
distance metal sheets into the collector grooves.
