What is a power rail PV module mounting system?

The PV module mounting system engineered to reduce installation costs and provide maximum strength for parallel-to-roof, tilt up, or open structure mounting applications. The POWER RAIL mounting system is designed with the professional PV solar installer in mind.

What is the clamp size for a PV module?

For framed PV module, the clamp must overlap the module frame at least 8 mm (0.32 inch) but no more than 11 mm (0.43 inch). The cross section of clamp can be adjusted if the module is securely fastened. For frameless PV module, the clamp must overlap the module frame at maximum 15 mm (0.59 inch).

How to install a PV module?

Ensure the module length is align with the rails ends. 2. Place second PV module into rail, leaving a 20mm gap between modules and insert the mid clamps, slide the PV module flush against mid clamp closely, then tighten the mid clamp screw to 10 N·m using 6 mm Allen key or hex driver bit. Repeat procedure for follow mid clamps.

How to mount solar modules on a roof?

Mounting diagram There are various possibilities for the arrangement of the mounting system and the modules on the roof. The most common option is to horizontally assemble type TF50+ carrier rails and arrange solar modules vertically. For this reason, any further mounting procedures describe such an arrangement.

How do I choose the right solar fastener?

Adapt the required length of the solar fastener to the height of the roof structure. Use IBC SOLAR AG's very own "PV Manager" planning software to ensure you select the right solar fastener. The nominal sheet metal profile panel thickness around the fasteners is ≥ 0.4 mm for steel and ≥ 0.5 mm for aluminium.

How to mount a bifacial PV module?

For frameless PV module, the clamp must overlap the module frame at maximum 15 mm (0.59 inch). The applied value of torque should refer to mechanical design standard and the bolt type customer is using, for example: M8: 14-18 N•m. Bifacial modules can be mounted by bolts or clamps. The mounting method and maximum test load are shown as follow.
