Place: Green FabLab, Kamp-Lintfort.
Photovoltaic (PV) modules:
IBC PySol 270 GX4
Item number = 2204400014
Physical data:
Module dimensions (mm) = 1654 x 989 x 40
Module weight = 18.2Kg
PV modules available = 20units
The current idea is to install two systems:
- Fixed system: 2 sets of 5 PV modules each on top of the roof, using an Angle mounting system.
- Mobile system: 2 sets of 5 PV modules each on the green area, using a Flat mounting system on mobile platform mechanism that allows us to tilt the PV modules.

L = (M.B + 24 mm) × n + 32 mm | Carrier rail length = (M.B + 24 mm) × number of modules per row + 32 mm |
M.B | Module width |
M.H | Module height |
A | Type TF50+/TF50m/TF60 carrier rail |
B | Roof hooks |
C | Middle clamp |
D | Outside clamp |
E | Max. 400mm |
X | X – selected fixing interval (dimensioned using PV Manager software) |
Z | Max. ¼ of M.H (please observe module manufacturer specifications) |
Note: “Carrier rail” is also called “Support rail” in the manual.
List of components
According to the Installation instructions - IBC TopFix 200:
Support rail length = (M.B + 24 mm) × number of modules per row + 32 mm = (989mm + 24 mm) × 5 + 32 mm = 1013 x 5 + 32 mm = 5097mm
There are two lengths: 5200mm and 2100mm, then we use the 5200mm one.
