Do not bring any chemical substance (e.g. oil, solvent etc.) into ■ mounting frame. contact with any part of the panel. Only substances, which are released by Qcells, are allowed to be used during installation, Module Orientation Requirements operation and maintenance. Vertical or horizontal installation is permitted.
2 Planning 2.3 Mounting options REQUIREMENTS OF ALL MOUNTING OPTIONS The loads in the table are related to the mechanical stability of the solar modules. The mechanical stability of the mounting system including clamps has to be evaluated by the system supplier. The listed test load values have been determined with the following clamp parameters: clamp width = 40 mm and clamp depth = 10 mm.
