GB | General Guidelines
Mounting system for installing framed
solar PV modules on flat roofs with a
roofpitch of up to 5° without penetrating
the roof.
To be noted before installation
The FS10-S/FS18-S is weighed down with
ballast (paving slabs etc.) in order to re-
sist wind loads. The required weight of
the ballast depends on the height of the
building, its location and the condition of
the installation surface in addition to the
magnitude of the wind loads.
!
The coefficient of friction of at least µ =
0.5 is observed. This is mandatory prior
to installation to determine on site by
the customer using a spring balance and
recorded. The coefficient of friction is a
component for determining ballast and
depending on the local conditions.
Guideline values for the necessary ballast
can be calculated using Eurocode 1 (EN
1991).
Modules are always to be mounted in
landscape.
When mounted by the FS10-S/FS18-S ,
modules are mounted in the corner of the
long sides. It must be checked, whether
the value specified by the module manuf-
acturer clamping range is maintained.
Drain holes in PV module frame must be
kept clear and may not be obscured by the
mounting system.
The roof area must be free of snow, ice
and dirt during installation.
Be sure to observe the relevant regulati-
ons, latest technology standards and cur-
rent health and safety guidelines during
installation.
A suitable subsurface that can absorb any
forces that may occur (weight, wind and
snow loads) is always a prerequisite for
use in accordance with regulations. Water
drainage on the flat roof and its direction
must also be taken into consideration.
The roof covering must be suitable for

laying down building protection mats. The
compatibility between the building pro-
tection mat and the roof membrane must
be verified in advance.

The pressure and suction coefficients
are calculated on the basis of wind tun-
nel tests and are available from Renusol
