The raised flange shingle plate is used for inclined installations on asphalt and elastomer roofs; also suitable for flat roofs.

Install flange plate shingle (raised)

1.

Determine roof type. Inspect the structural integrity of

 

the roof and the durability of the roof materials.

2.

Determine the number of collectors needed for the

￿CAUTION

The plates must be screwed into a member capable of bearing the required static load (generally rafters or concrete).

Once installed, the panels must be sealed to the roof sheet material (FIG. 3-28), and only then can the collector be fitted.

 

installation and the number of required attachments

 

from Table 3B or 3C on page 11.

3.

Determine collector connection points (spacing).

 

Measure the spacing of the rafters or trusses to confirm

 

the dimensions and prepare for the system layout

 

(reference the Roof Attachment Spacing Section on

 

page 12).

4.

Caulk (field supplied) around the perimeter of the flange

Unpacking and checking parts

When unpacking the system, check the model names of the components of each system and check to be sure you have the correct number of parts (see FIG. 3-25).
