We recommend a thermal separation after maximum of 17.6m.
A minimum mounting distance of 50mm from the end of the rail / rail joint to the module frame.
Tightening torque for all module clamps 14Nm
For manufacturer information regarding clamps see the manufacturing module data sheet.
In order to avoid damage under high snow loads, replace the clay/concrete roof tile with metal roof plate or sheet metal replacement tile under the bracket of the roof hook.
