Mounting
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 Short description of the system
The FS Duo is a material optimised steel-system for the mounting of photovoltaic modules in
open areas. The support structure is made of zinc-magnesium coated or continuously hot-dip
coated steel, the fastening elements and screws consist of zinc-flake coated steel or stainless
steel and the rafters (module-bearing profiles) are made of aluminium. Depending on the module
orientation, the FS Duo is installed with or without rafters.
Accessories for the cable management or components for the potential equalization in the
mounting system can be installed additionally. The cable duct is already integrated in the purlin.
1.2 Scope of the installation manual
These mounting instructions explicitly only provide instructions for the mechanical mounting of
the FS Duo. They expressly do not give instructions for working procedures in connection with
electrical or electronic components! Please note that any work in connection with electrical or
electronic components may only be carried out by appropriately qualified personnel.
1.3 Appropriate use
The FS Duo serves as a substructure for the installation of photovoltaic modules. Any other
and/or additional use or incorrect assembly (e.g. use of third-party components) or non-
observance of tolerance specifications are considered as improper use and exclude any liability of
the manufacturer. Any use under conditions other than those assumed in the planning is also
considered as improper use and leads to the loss of any liability claims against the manufacturer.
This applies in particular if the system is used under other load conditions, under other soil
conditions, under other climatic conditions and/or under other corrosion conditions than originally
assumed. Schletter Solar GmbH is in no case responsible for damages to the product itself or
consequential damages caused by the product which are the result of an inappropriate handling
of the product.
Schletter Solar GmbH is in particular not responsible for outages or faults resulting from
modifications made by the customer or other persons. There is no entitlement to the availability
of previous versions or to the re-fitting of delivered components to the current series status.
