PANELCLAW IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR SITE INACCURACIES THAT COULD LEAD TO CHANGES TO THESE DRAWING <br />DETAILS AND ARRAY LAYOUT CONFIGURATIONS. ALL INFORMATION CONTAINED WITHIN THESE DOCUMENTS ARE TO BE FIELD VERIFIED BY <br />CUSTOMER AND INSTALLER. ANY CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO THESE DOCUMENTS, CONTAINED INFORMATION, OR FINAL ARRAY AND <br />MOUNTING SYSTEM INSTALLATIONS MUST BE SUBMITTED TO PANELCLAW AND OTHER PROJECT AUTHORITIES FOR APPROVAL. <br />2.REFER TO AND FOLLOW THE APPROPRIATE PANELCLAW INSTALLATION MANUALS AND PROCEDURES DURING THE INSTALLATION PROCESS. <br />NOT FOLLOWING SUCH PROCEDURES AND METHODS COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE COMPONENTS OR MAY VOID THE PRODUCT <br />WARRANTY. <br />3.ARRAY SETBACKS: ALL ARRAYS ARE REQUIRED TO BE SETBACK 4-FEET FROM ALL ROOF EDGES UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED AND <br />CALLED OUT ON THE ARRAY DIAGRAMS ON THIS PAGE OR ON ADDITIONAL ARRAY BALLAST PAGES. <br />4.REFER TO THE SPECIFIC ARRAY BALLAST SHEETS FOR BALLASTING REQUIREMENTS BASED ON THE PROVIDED SITE INFORMATION. <br />5.SYSTEM PSF INCLUDES ALL PANELCLAW RACKING COMPONENTS, MECHANICAL ATTACHMENTS (IF APPLICABLE), PV MODULE AND BALLAST <br />BLOCKS. FOR MAXIMUM SYSTEM POINT LOAD SUMMARY (PLS), REFER TO CALCULATIONS. <br />6.PANELCLAW AND/OR PANELCLAW CONSULTING ENGINEERS ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING THE ADEQUACY OF THE STRUCTURE <br />TO SUPPORT LOADS IMPOSED BY THE ARRAY AND MOUNTING SYSTEM. SUPPORT STRUCTURE TO BE CHECKED BY OTHERS. <br />7.ALWAYS ALLOW A MINIMUM OF 6" CLEARANCE BETWEEN NEIGHBORING SUBARRAYS, 6" BETWEEN SUBARRAYS AND ALL FIXED ROOF <br />OBJECTS AND 4' BETWEEN SUBARRAYS AND ROOF EDGES. REFER TO LOCAL FIRE CODES AND ELECTRICAL CODES FOR ADDITIONAL <br />REQUIREMENTS WHICH MAY GOVERN DESIGN. SUBARRAYS THAT USE A SEISMIC ANALYSIS METHOD OF DELTA MPV PREDICTED MOVEMENT <br />HAVE THEIR OWN CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS. REFER TO THE BALLAST LAYOUT SHEETS WITHIN THIS DOCUMENT FOR DETAILS. <br />8.BALLAST BLOCK DIMENSIONS MUST CONFORM TO THE FOLLOWING SPECIFICATIONS: 3-3/4” THICK MAX., 7-5/8” ± 1/8” WIDTH, 15-5/8” ± 1/8” <br />LENGTH. <br />9.IF AN ARRAY CLEARANCES TABLE APPEARS BELOW ON THIS PAGE, THE DESIGN UTILIZES THIRD PARTY SEISMIC NON-LINEAR RESPONSE <br />ANALYSIS TO ESTIMATE MAXIMUM ARRAY SEISMIC DISPLACEMENT. THE PREDICTED MOVEMENT IS ONLY AN ESTIMATE. PANELCLAW IS NOT <br />RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PV ARRAY MOVEMENT INCLUDING MOVEMENT IN EXCESS OF THE <br />CLEARANCES NOTED IN THIS DOCUMENT OR ANY REQUIREMENT TO REPOSITION THE ARRAYS IF MOVEMENT OCCURS. <br />10.DEFLECTORS MUST BE INSTALLED WHEN WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO EXCEED APPROX. 25% OF WIND SPEED DOCUMENTED IN SITE DESIGN <br />CRITERIA TABLE.
