• Maximum Unirac Span = 9.5' (Maximum Allowable Cantilever is Y Max Span).
• Racking and Attachment: Unirac Solarmount with Eco -Fasten GF1-CP-SQ.
• UniRac SolarMount Top Clamps require 1" spacing between Modules and 3"
beyond the Module edges of each row.
• UniRac Requires one thermal expansion gap for every run of rail greater than 40.'
• Array shall be Installed according to the UniRac SolarMount Code -Compliant
Installation Manual ver. 227.3, Pub 110616-1 cc, June 2011
• Attachment Locations, if shown, are approximate. Final adjustment of attachment
location may be necessary depending on field conditions. All attachments are to
be staggered amongst on the roof framing members.

All-purpose Module
All -black CS6P is a robust all purpose solar
module with 60 solar cells. These modules
can be used foron-grid and off -grid solar
applications. The all -black modules use high
efficiency mono -crystalline silicon cells,
laminated with black back sheet and framed
with black anodized aluminum. The all -black
modules are the perfect choice of customers
who not only are keen on using solar energy,
but also look for aesthetic value.
Applications
• On -grid and off -grid residential roof -tops
• On -grid and off -grid commercial/industrial
roof -tops
• Rural area applications
• Solar power stations
• Other on -grid and off -grid applications
Quality Certificates
• IEC 61215, IEC61730, UL 1703CE
