BUILDING THE FRAME AND RACKING THE MODULES:<br />
DO YOU MOUNT ONE PIECE AT A TIME OR BUILD SUB-ARRAYS?<br />
Module Rail & Support Angle Detail<br />
From the bottom up the Procedure is:<br />
Bolt > Support Angle > Tube > Rail >Washer > Nut<br />
One installer, one piece at a time approach.<br />
Modules are being used to “square-up: the frame.<br />
Notice how the modules overhang the Rails.<br />
Sub-Array Approach: Requires a lot of people power.<br />
Notice that the rails bolt to the intermediate module holes.<br />
Lift by the tracker rails only, not the module frames!<br />
Lifting and bolting the sub-array onto the tube.<br />
Typically a 3-person job: 2 lifters, 1 bolter.<br />
Lift by the tracker rails only, not the module frames!<br />
The “one piece at a time” approach can get very tiring. The<br />
installer is working with their arms and hands above their head.<br />
We encourage installers’ to wear a Hard Hat.<br />
Leave all frame and module bolts “finger tight.” Once you finish<br />
the frame building and module mounting, you can go back and<br />
“square up” the array. Then tighten all nuts with a wrench.<br />
NOTE: If you ever “under populate” the array frame, leave<br />
any unused space at the top of the frame. If the frame is<br />
not totally filled out, then the greatest weight should be on<br />
the lower sections of the frame.<br />
