 Installation

With flat roof mounting:

The flat roof penetration must be professionally sealed in the 
roof (e.g. by means of bitumen sheeting). Involve a roofer if 
necessary.
Depending on the type of connection, seal off the unused 
cable screw fittings in the flat roof penetrations with the 
matching seal screw fittings.

8. Tighten the M-screw fittings of the connection pipes and ca-

bles.

4.4

Mounting the flat solar panels

Carry out the following steps:

1. Hook the solar panel securing clips in the guide groove of the 

lower mounting profile and tilt downwards.
After they have been hooked on, the solar panel securing 
clips can be moved sideways (see fig. 4-8 and tab. 4-3).

Tab. 4-3 Clearance dimensions of the securing clips

2. Lift the flat solar panel onto the roof area using a crane. If no 

crane is available, the solar panel can be hoisted onto the roof 
with a rope, using a ladder leaning against the roof edge. De-
pending on the installation requirements, unpack the solar 
panel before or after the transport to the roof and remove the 
collection pipe protective plugs.

CAUTION!

With special roof coverings, such as roof tiles 
with very pronounced undulations (large differ-
ences in height), sealing problems can occur 
with the universal roof penetration box. 

In such cases, and also with plane tiles or 
slate roofing, a professional roofer should be 
consulted.

The solar panel mounting and the hydraulic connection 
is only carried out after installation of the requisite sub-
construction. All assembly information for the sub-
construction or the roof integration of the ROTEX 

Solaris flat plate panels are given in the respective quick instruc-
tions which accompany the 

roof-mounted assembly packages

in-roof assembly packages

flat roof assembly packages.

Fix the upper mounting profile in place in such a way that the 
lateral alignment can still be corrected.

The flat solar panel must be lifted onto the roof in the 
correct orientation for mounting (prevents faults during 
connection or difficult manoeuvring operations). The 
top side of the solar panel (DB) is marked on the pro-

tective cover of the solar panel glazing. The plugs for the solar 
panel temperature sensor and the round solar panel connection 
seals must at the bottom when aligning the flat solar panel.
