3. Product description
These xing accessories are used to install solar at-plate col-
lectors on a roof with plain tiles. The following table should
assist when ordering. The required accessories depend on the
number of collectors to be installed.
The material composition is based on hydraulic assemblies. Up
to ve collectors can be hydraulically linked. From six collectors
upwards, arrays need to be separated into dierent hydraulic
assemblies.

You will only need the frame support if you intend changing the angle of
inclination of the collectors to create an optimum insolation angle.
The frame support RA enables the angle of inclination to be increased by
15° to 30°.
4. Preparing for installation
4.1 Installation location
Check whether the condition of the existing roof structure is
sound (static calculation required, possible enquiry regarding
the building).
The mounting frame for the collectors must not be tted at the
edge or in a corner of the roof. Observe the collector installa-
tion instructions.
fObserve the following when choosing the securing point
-existing air vent tiles and vents.
-the roof outlets for the hydraulic and electrical connec-
tions of the collectors.
