The Fix-EZ is specifically designed to meet or exceed applicable IBC, ASCE, and UL standards. Features • Conforms to UL 27031 • Certified to ULC/ORD Std C1703 • Fire class resistance rating: Class A when used with Type I or Type II photovoltaic modules in landscape orientation only2 • Multiple module tilt options available3 • Portrait or landscape module orientation4 • Ballast block included • Includes Rapid5KTM grounding module clamps • Wind tunnel tested • Optional wire management • 30 Amp fuse series rating Provided as a complete mounting system, the Fix-EZ includes several multifunction components to maximize functionality and minimize cost. Ballast blocks act as ballast weight as well as system support. Module mounting rails support modules⁵ and act as windbreak with Rapid5K™ module clamps securely holding modules in place while bonding/grounding them to the system. The following is a guide to properly install a Fix-EZ in order to meet design and test standards.6 1The Fix-EZ is evaluated for electrical bonding only. The Fix-EZ meets all IBC and ASCE requirements for structural loading; it was not evaluated for loading under UL 2703. 2Special consideration needs to be taken during design phase if system requires protective fire barrier. 3Module tilt will vary depending on module manufacturer’s connection requirements: tilt options range from 7 degrees to 15 degrees 4Maximum number of modules shall not exceed maximum system voltage. 5 This racking system may be used to ground and/or mount a PV module complying with UL1703 only when the specific module has been evaluated for grounding and/or mounting in compliance with the included manual 6 Installer is responsible for verifying that photovoltaic system meets applicable NEC standards. 7 Individual parts and components may vary from system-to-system.
