Unirac also provides a limited warranty on SunFrame products (page 24). Q The installer is solely responsible for: • Complying with all applicable local or national building codes, including any that may supersede this manual; • Ensuring that Unirac and other products are appropriate for the particular installation and the installation environment; • Ensuring that the roof, its rafters, connections, and other structural support members can support the array under all code level loading conditions (this total building assembly is referred to as the building structure); • Using only Unirac parts and installer-supplied parts as specified by Unirac (substitution of parts may void the warranty and invalidate the letters of certification in all Unirac publications); • Ensuring that lag screws have adequate pullout strength and shear capacities as installed; • Verifying the strength of any alternate mounting used in lieu of the lag screws; • Maintaining the waterproof integrity of the roof, including selection of appropriate flashing; • Ensuring safe installation of all electrical aspects of the PV array; and • Ensuring correct and appropriate design parameters are used in determining the design loading used for design of the specific installation. Parameters, such as snow loading, wind speed, exposure and topographic factor should be confirmed with the local building official or a licensed professional engineer. 2 SunFrame Unirac Code-Compliant Installation Manual iP U N I RAC Part I. Procedure to Determine the Design Wind Load [1.1.] Using the Simplified Method - ASCE 7-05 The procedure to determine Design Wind Load is specified for more clarification on the use of Method 1. Lower design by the American Society of Civil Engineers and referenced in wind loads may be obtained by applying Method II from ASCE the International Building Code 2006. For purposes of this 7-05. Consult with a licensed engineer if you want to use document, the values, equations and procedures used in this Method 11 procedures. document reference ASCE 7-05, Minimum Design Loads for The equation for determining the Design Wind Load for Buildings and Other Structures. Please refer to ASCE 7-05 if components and cladding is: you have any questions about the definitions orprocedures presented in this manual. Unirac uses Method 1, the Simplified Method, for calculating the Design Wind Load for Pna (PSP = AKzd pnec3o pressures on components and cladding in this document. pnet (psf) = Design Wind Load The method described in this document is valid for flush, no tilt, SunFrame Series applications on either roofs or walls.

The building height must be less than 60 feet, h < 60. See note for determining h in the next section.

P~K 15 U N I RAC' Unirac Code-Compliant Installation Manual SunFrame Installing the array Safe, efficient SunFrame installation involves three principal tasks: A. Laying out the installation area and planning for material conservation. B. Installing footings and rails, beginning with the lowest row and moving up the roof. C. Placing modules and cap strips, beginning with the highest row and moving down the roof. The following illustrated steps describe the procedure in detail. Before beginning, please note these important considerations. Footings must be lagged into structural members. Never attach them to the decking A alone, alone, which leaves both the array and roof susceptible to severe damage. array widths or lengths greater than 45 feet see instruction manual 908.1 concerning thermal expansion issues. 11A ° • at each end of ana y Sample illustrafaxg Ay*dd -Atr _ th =141` r"mod R x4modulgsper-iaw) Arrwklm- Igo' (6tt'mpdule stsr off +a1's'.(s/.' __Nta2rails) f.

(These instructions assume typical rafters that run from the gutter to the peak of the roof. If this is not the case, contact Unirac.) Rails are typically mounted horizontally (parallel to the lower edge of the roof), and must be mounted within 10 degrees of horizontal. Leave adequate room to move safely around the array during installation. During module installation, you will need to slide one module in each row about a foot beyond the end of the rails on one side. Using the number of rows and the number of modules per row in your installation, determine the size of your array area following Figure 6. Array width (module width times modules per row) Figure 6. Installation area layout. Note: Module length is not neces- sarily measured from the edges of the frame. Some frames have lips. Others are assembled with pan-head screws. All such features must be included in module length. 16 SunFrame Unirac Code-Compliant Installation Manual il' U N I RAC 2. Installing the lowest row of L-feet and rail In the lowest row, it is not necessary to use L-foot adjusting 4 sliders, even if you plan to use them in subsequent rows. Install L-feet directly onto low profile roofing material such as asphalt shingles or sheet metal. (For high profile roofs, such as tile or shake, use optional standoffs with flashing to raise L-feet. L-feet must be flush with or above the highest point of the roof surface.) _ L-feet can be placed with the double-slotted side against the roof surface (as in Fig. 7) or with the single-slotted side against - the roof (which increases air circulation beneath modules). Module-to-roof dimensions are listed on page 15 for both ar- rangements.

Lay the remaining modules in the top row, leaving a gap about a foot wide between the first and second modules (Fig. 13). The temporary gap allows the installer to place one of his feet between modules. He - can access the section of the cap strip he needs to secure while leaning toward the peak of the roof.

See Table 4 (pg. 15) to match screw length to the size cap strip in your installation. Every cap strip segment must have a cap strip screw 4 t inches or less from each end. If the nearest predrilled s s hole falls more than 4 inches from any end, drill a 1/4-inch hole 2 inches from the end and install an additional screw. Figure 14. Position and secure modules one by one. Q Wherever it is necessary to make a new cap strip hole, drill a 1/4-inch hole before installing the cap strip screw. 7. Installing the remaining modules in the top row Slide the next module into final position and install the screws to secure it (Fig. 14). For a neat installation, use cable ties to attach excess wiring to the rail beneath the flanges. Unirac's cable ties can be attached to the SunFrame rail by drilling a 1/4-inch hole in the rail and pushing the end of the tie into the hole. Continue the process until all modules in the top row are in final place and secured from the top. When complete, every epping gap prepunched hole in the cap strip will be secured by a screw, iio a nd the top end of the first row of modules will be secure. Figure 15.

Repeat Steps 6 and 7 for the remaining rows (Fig. 15). Each subsequent cap strip will secure the tops to the modules being installed and the bottoms of the modules in the row above. Place the final cap strip in the lowest rail, securing the bottom of the lowest module row. 21 .F U N I RAC Unirac Code-Compliant Installation Manual SunFrame 9.
