Work steps for screw connection
The following installation steps apply if the
modules already have holes drilled into the
module frames and the modules are to be
screwed directly onto the module rails:
• Place the module onto the module rails and
slide it over the pre-drilled holes in the module
rail.
• Hold the module tight and use the screws and
nuts provided to screw the module onto the
module rail. See Fig. 24.
• Repeat these steps until modules cover
the entire module substructures.

Module
4 Expansion joint
2 Module carrier rail
5 End clamp
3 Guideline
6 Middle clamp
Start with the installation of the modules on an expansion joint (4) by laying the first
module (1) on the module carrier rails (2) and installing it using precise measurements. At
the expansion joint, end clamps (5) must be clicked into the module carrier rail (2). Secure
the first module with the end clamps (5).
Click the middle clamps (6) into each module carrier rail. Press the middle clamps (6) onto
the module. Place the next module on the module carrier rails and slide it up to the middle
clamps.
Tighten the module clamps using the specified torque and repeat these steps until the
end of the tracker array. An end clamp (5) is mounted after the last module to complete
the array.
If possible, use a guideline (3) as an aid for optimal alignment and use a middle
clamp or something else as a spacer between the module rows
