Page 4: Product Information
PRODUCT INFORMATION INTENDED USE The ClickFit EVO mounting system is designed for mounting solar panels on pitched roofs. With this mounting system, solar panels can be positioned on the roof either with the short side at the bottom (portrait) or with the long side at the bottom (landscape). -
Page 5: Specifications
Depending on the roof and the result obtained from the calculator, you can lay several segments with solar panels next to each other. Always leave a minimum of 12mm of space between segments to allow for expansion of the roof. If your project has different specifications than these, please contact Esdec. -

Page 7: Application
APPLICATION Use the calculator to determine the correct rail orientation for your project. The calculator takes into account, for example, the type of roof covering and the structure supporting the roof. 1 Check the roof type and the roof structure type. Is it a roof with purlins or trusses, or with solid engineering wood boards? 2 Look up the type of roof covering of your project in the table. -

7 MARK THE POSITION OF THE HANGER BOLTS. Preferably use existing screw holes for the installation of the hanger bolts, especially on corrugated roofs. If you use too many screws in a corrugated sheet roof, it means that the roof material may have too little space to compensate for thermal expansion/contraction. -

4 USE COUPLERS TO CONNECT THE MOUNTING RAILS, IF NECESSARY 5 IF THE OVERHANG IS GREATER THAN 250MM: EXTEND THE MOUNTING RAIL TO THE NEXT RAFTER OR BATTEN. 6 CUT THE MOUNTING RAILS TO SIZE. a. If the calculated overhang of the solar panel is more than 250mm beyond the marked position of the last hangerbolt, mark the position of an extra hangerbolt on the nearest rafter or batten. - Page 13 1 PREDRILL THE HOLES IN THE ROOF (WOODEN SUBSTRUCTURE: PURLINS/TRUSSES) The substructure must be at least 50 mm thick. Clear the drill hole and surrounding area of drill cuttings. For corrugated roof: use the existing screw holes as much as possible. Make sure that you do not place too many screws in a corrugated roof, because then the roof material will not have enough space to work thermally.
- Page 14 3 PREDRILL THE HOLES IN THE ROOF (CONCRETE SUBSTRUCTURE) > 100 mm Arabic tiles > 80 mm Concrete slab Pre-drill Arabic tiles at the highest point on the roof tile. This ensures good drainage. The drilling depth is at least 100 mm. For a concrete slab, the drilling depth is at least 80 mm.

THE RIGIDITY OF THE RAIL AUTOMATICALLY ALIGNS THE BRACKETS INTO THE CORRECT POSITION. 4 RETIGHTEN THE LOOSENED SCREWS WHEN THE RAIL IS PROPERLY ALIGNED. APPLY A TORQUE OF 9 NM. The mounting rails need to be straight and parallel for proper installation and alignment of the solar panels.
