Flat rooF application
Framed and frameless PV - Modules
Assembly sequence of the flat roof support with Frameless
PV Modules:
The assembly sequence for the base rails and preassembled triangles are
the same as described in sections 1.1 to 6.3.
See Figure 9.1
(Torque: 6 to 8 ft. lbs.)
Now, position the thin-film end clamp and thin-film mid clamp into the
module rack slot with the T-Bolts. Clamps should be attached ¼ of the way
down from the edge of the module.
See Figure 9.2
Then, slide the module into the thin-film end clamp and tighten the T-Bolts
clockwise. (Torque: 6 to 8 ft. lbs.)
Next, slide the thin-film mid clamp onto the module and tighten the T-Bolts by
turning hex nuts clockwise.
See Figure 9.3
(Torque: 6 to 8 ft. lbs.)
Check for correct alignment of the
hammer-head bolts in the mounting rail
slot. The line on back of T-Blot needs to
be perpendicular to the mounting rail.
See Figure 9.4
