(a) Mounting guidelines for Bolting of Modules:-
Modules must be mounted on mounting holes located at rear side with the M6 stainless steel nut, bolt and
washer. It is recommended to use stainless steel fixing only. Module mounting must use the pre-drilled
mounting holes in the frame. Always select the length of mounting screw after considering a clearance of 5-
10 mm between the Module back face & screw face to avoid any breakage of Module while tightening.
Note: -
Do not drill additional mounting holes on the frame & glass surface of the Module.
Doing so will void the warranty.

Each Module must be securely fixed to the mounting structure at a minimum of four points. The Module
clamps shall not come into contact with the front glass and must not deform the frame. Be sure to avoid
shadowing effects from the Module clamps. The Module frame is not to be modified under any
circumstances. When choosing this type of clamp-mounting method, please be sure to use at least four
clamps on each Module, two clamps should be attached on each long sides and 2 clamps on each short side
of the Module. Depending on the local wind and snow loads, if excessive pressure load is expected,
additional clamps or support would be required to ensure that the Module can bear the load. The applied
