Installation
6.1
Mounting
GENERAL
The module is considered to be in compliance with UL 1703 only when the module is mounted in the
manner specified by the mounting instructions below. Any module without a frame (laminate) shall not
be considered to comply with the requirements of UL 1703 unless the module is mounted with
hardware that has been tested under this standard or by a field inspection certifying that the installed
module complies with the requirements of UL 1703. When installing a module in the USA or Canada,
please refer to “
PAS-11-05-0190EN mounting instructions UL
” for further details on mounting and
installation of a CX series module.
WIND/SNOW LOAD
The modules are suitable for use under a wind and snow load of up to 2400 Pa [IEC] / 50ft
2
[UL].
WATER RUNOFF
Orient the modules in such a way that rainwater and snowmelt can run off freely and do not accumulate
to create lasting soiling.
MOUNTING STRUCTURE
Install the modules on a mounting structure:
•
that corresponds to the required statics and the local wind/snow loads
•
that can be properly fastened in the ground, on the roof or on the facade
•
that can transfer forces on the modules to the assembly substructure
•
that ensures that no mechanical stress (such as ones caused by vibrations, twisting or
expansion) is placed on the modules
•
that ensures sufficient rear ventilation of the modules
•
whose electrochemical series does not give rise to galvanic corrosion in the case of direct
contact between different metals
•
The clamps and rail system need to be constructed as a coordinated unit.
MODULE FASTENING
Fasten the module in accordance with the following mounting variants (see 6.2). The clamping
ranges defined for this can be seen in figures 6 to 8 (pages 13 and 14).
Ensure that the modules do not bend or twist by more than 3 mm/m (without additional load from
sources such as wind, snow etc.). Observe the technical regulations for the use of glazing with fix point
or linear supports (TRLV, TRPV). Position the module so that it is planar.
Depending on the wind load and the angle of inclination, we recommend attaching additional non- slip
safeguards and/or spacers.
