Ibc Framefix Module Frame Reinforcements - IBC TopFix 200 Installation Manual

10. IBC FrameFix module frame reinforcements

General information
We recommend retrofitting IBC FrameFix frame reinforcements in regions with a high degree of snow
loads. A high degree of snow loads on vertically mounted modules may deform the frame and hence
render the module unusable.
IBC FrameFix counteracts this and reinforces the frame from the rear. The structure is not visible and it
does affect the mounting system.

Frame reinforcement for large-scale, vertically mounted PV modules (48, 60 and 72 cells)

For module frame dimensions (with adatper) (length/width/height):
1660-1680 mm/990 mm/40–50 mm
(1640-1659 mm/ ca. 990 mm/ 40-50 mm)
1580-1620 mm/ 800 mm/40-50 mm
1310-1340 mm/990 mm/40-50 mm

Cable capacity up to 8 kN (800 kg)

Mounting in a few simple steps

Module frame not affected by additional drilling

In the event of subsequent repairs to the PV generator it is merely required to remove the
module, not the entire mounting system
Assembly

If necessary, insert the adapter on the cable frorm the
clamping shoe.

Insert FrameFix corner bracket into the module frame from the
rear

