Always keep the back sheet of the panel free from foreign objects or structural elements, which could come
into contact with the panel, especially when the panel is under mechanical load.
Modules have been certified for a maximum static load on the back side of 2400 Pa (i.e wind load) and a
maximum static load on the front side of either 2400 Pa or 5400 Pa (i.e. wind and snow load), depending on
the Modules type (please refer to Figure 4 for detailed installation method. )
The mounting method must not result in the direct contact of dissimilar metals with the aluminum frame of
the Modules that will result in galvanic corrosion. Modules can be mounted in landscape or portrait
orientation.
