Notes:
•
To maximize mounting longevity, Yingli Solar strongly recommends the use of corrosion proof (stainless steel) attachment hardware.
•
To check whether the surface of the beam is flat and smooth, or add rubber pads on the beam to prevent the module from being crushed when it is pressed down.
•
Parts in contact with the modules should use flat stainless steel washers of minimum 1.4 mm thickness with an minimum outer diameter of 15.57 mm.
•
Modules can be attached using the mounting holes (2 holes of φ9×14 mm of one long-side frame, ≥ 1300 mm spacing) on the back of the module frame, by fix-
ing the module to the support rails with bolts.
•
Secure the module in each mounting location with M8 bolts and matching flat washers, spring washers and nuts, and tighten to a torque of 14~20 N·m. The
tightening steps as follows: use torque wrench to tighten nut to target torque, nut loosen 90~180 degrees, finally tighten the nut to the target torque and reduce the
torque attenuation.

•
Parts in contact with the modules should use flat stainless steel washers of minimum 1.4 mm thickness with an minimum outer diameter of 15.57 mm.
•
Modules can be attached using the mounting holes (2 holes of φ7×10 mm of one long-side frame, 400 mm spacing for special tracker, or 2 holes of φ9×14 mm
of one long-side frame, spacing ≥ L/3, L represents the length of the long side of the module) on the back of the module frame, by fixing the module to the support
rails with bolts.
•
Secure the module in each mounting location with 2 M6 bolts or 2 M8 bolts, and matching flat washers, spring washers and nuts, and tighten to a torque of 14~20
N·m. The tightening steps as follows: use torque wrench to tighten nut to target torque, nut loosen 90~180 degrees, finally tighten the nut to the target torque and
reduce the torque attenuation.
