The combination of the solar film clamp and the Spring Loaded Nut is usually used to fix the solar film module so that it can be firmly installed on the bracket or other structure.
The film clamp is usually made of aluminum alloy or stainless steel, which is both light and corrosion-resistant, and can effectively protect the solar film module.
The Spring Nut is mostly made of elastic steel, which has elasticity and fatigue resistance, and is used to apply continuous clamping force to the module.
Its main installation process is as follows:
- Determine the installation position:
According to the design drawings or actual needs, select the installation position of the film clamp and the Spring Nut to ensure that the module is evenly stressed.
Usually, the clamps are evenly distributed on the edge or middle part of the solar film module.
- Install the film clamp:
Fix the clamp on the bracket to ensure that it can contact the film module flatly.
Use bolts, nuts or other fasteners to initially fix the clamp.
- Insert the Spring Loaded Nut:
Insert the Spring Nut into the corresponding position of the clamp so that it can clamp the film module.
Ensure that the Spring Nut has moderate elastic force, which can firmly clamp the film without damaging the surface of the module.
- Tighten the bolts or nuts:
Adjust the bolts or nuts of the clamp and compress the Spring Nut to provide sufficient clamping force.
Use a torque wrench to ensure uniform tightening force to avoid damage to the film module due to excessive compression.
- Check and adjust:
Check whether the clamp and Spring Loaded Nut are stable and whether the module is in the correct position.
If there is any looseness or unevenness, adjust it in time.
Note when using
–Prevent damage to the film: It is recommended to add rubber pads or other protective layers at the contact point between the Spring Nut and the film to avoid scratches on the film surface.
-Regular maintenance: Due to long-term wind and sun exposure, the Spring Nut may fatigue or rust, and aging parts need to be checked and replaced regularly.
-Compatibility: Ensure that the size and specifications of the Spring Nut match the film clamp to avoid loose or incompatible installation.
Through reasonable design and installation, the film clamp and Spring Loaded Nut can provide reliable fixing effect while protecting the performance and life of the solar film.
