Ensure that the drainage openings of the frame are left open following installation to allow water runoff. This prevents
frost damage.
Install the module in such a way that rainwater and snowmelt can run off freely to avoid standing water or pudding.
The modules have been designed to resist a static load of 5400Pa (positive load), and this resistance value can
decrease if modules are not mounted following the instructions above.
(b)
Clamping installation
Modules can be installed with clamps. Modules must be securely attached to the mounting structure with four clamps on
the long frame.
The modules must be properly secured to their support so that they can withstand live load condition, including wind
uplift, to the pressure they have been certified for. It’s the installer’s responsibility to ensure the clamps used to
secure the modules are strong enough.
The modules are not subject to wind or snow loads exceeding the maximum permissible loads.
The module clamps which are used must not come into contact with the front glass and must not deform the frame.
Avoid shadowing effects from the module clamps. Drain holes in the module frame must not be closed or obscured by
the clamps.
The module installed with clamps on the front frame for 2400Pa load and 5400Pa load (see the following picture), and
refer to the following table for different value of “A” and “B”.
