Roof Attachment Installation
Flange plate shingle (raised)
#SRM20008
The raised flange shingle plate is used for inclined installations
on asphalt and elastomer roofs; also suitable for flat roofs.
• The plates must be screwed into a
member capable of bearing the
required static load (generally
rafters or concrete).
• Once installed, the panels
must be sealed to the roof sheet
material (FIG. 3-28), and
only then can the collector be
fitted.

Unpacking and checking parts
When unpacking the system, check the model names of the
components of each system and check to be sure you have the
correct number of parts (see FIG. 3-25).
Install flange plate shingle (raised)
1. Determine roof type. Inspect the structural integrity of
the roof and the durability of the roof materials.
2. Determine the number of collectors needed for the
installation and the number of required attachments
from Table 3B or 3C on page 11.
3. Determine collector connection points (spacing).
Measure the spacing of the rafters or trusses to confirm
the dimensions and prepare for the system layout
(reference the Roof Attachment Spacing Section on
page 12).
4. Caulk (field supplied) around the perimeter of the flange
plate (FIG. 3-26).
5. Using the flange plate as a template, place the flange plate
on the roof and drill four (4) 6 mm holes as shown in
FIG. 3-27. Install the larger screws provided in the kit
into the 6mm holes securing the flange plate to the roof
(caulk around screws before tightening).
6. Install the four (4) remaining smaller screws in the
perimeter of the flange plate as shown in FIG. 3-27 (caulk
around screws before tightening).
7. Cover the flange plate with roofing material, sealing it to
the roof (FIG. 3-28).
