Easy to install, they attach either:
• on a round mast with a diameter of 40 to 60 mm (flange included)
• on a signaling posts using flanges with M8 or M10 screws (not included)
With their galvanized steel structure and corrosion-resistant stainless-steel
screws, they are perfectly suited for outdoor use.
Equipped with a multi-position tilting system, Unifix brackets allow for an
optimization of your panel’s performance depending on the chosen orientation.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Mount Unifix brackets only on surfaces with sufficient bearing capacity.
Consider the additional load with the panel:
Support| Panneau|
---|---|---
Unifix 100S| = 3,8 kg| Unisun 80.12M / 100.12M / 100.24M /
110.12BC
| =6.3kg / 7,5kg / 7,5.kg /
7,0.kg
Unifix 150S| =6,2kg| Unisun 150.12M / 150.12BC| =9,8kg / 9,3kg
Unifix 200S| = 9,8kg| Unisun 200.24M| =13,6kg
Fastening : to prevent large quantities of snow from accumulating behind
the sensor, install appropriate barrier grids.
The position of the solar panel influences your electrical production. Choose
the most optimal inclination and orientation to suit your environment. Avoid
shaded areas or objects that are a source of shadow (eg tree)
Before attaching and connecting, please observe:
• the maximum distances between each element shown below.
• connecting order

|---|---|
| M5 | 5,10 |
| M 6 | 8,80 |
| M 8 | 21,50 |
| M 10 | 44,00 |
Nb. Average friction coefficient μ=0,20 / Tightening at 50% of the elastic limit.
For mounting on the masthead (not used on UNIFIX 200S), you can use the upper
cap to relieve the weight of the installation so that the mounting can be
easily done alone, without extra assistance. The bracket is fixed with the 4
M8 Screws
NB : This piece isn’t indispensable to fix the solar panels. It’s only
meant for the assembly.
Position the solar panels on your arch with the flanges (Screw and torque M8 or M10 aren’t provided).
UNIFIX 100S / 150S / 200S
Position the support with the 6 screw M10.
Position your solar panel with the 4 screw M8 (6 for UNIFIX 200S). The support is predrilled for the modules UNISUN. For the compatible solar panels it will be needed that you redrill your support compared to fixing holes on your panel.
