2. Adherence:
a) Adhesion planning and Applicable substrates
• Painted \ coated corrugated metal sheets, preferably PVDF-coated surfaces.
• PVC and bitumen waterproofing membranes.
• Maximum surface Temp: 70
.
• during operation, the module temperature may reach up to 70
, Do Not
attach the module to a substrate that may be affected by the module temperature.
• Always install the module at a slight inclination (up to 5 degrees) to allow water
drainage and avoid soiling.
• The module's correct position and adhesion areas are detailed in Annex A.
• installing PANDA modules under rain \ windy conditions is forbidden and may
void the warranty.
b) Surface Preparation
1) The substrate must be cleared of debris and sharp objects \ edges.
2) Ensure the surface is uniform and does not contain any loose paint or protective
laminates.
3) Use water and detergent \ IPA to clean the substrate and model's back sheet adhesion
surfaces.
4) DO NOT use solvents \ cleaning agents that may damage the substrate coating, make
sure to remove any detergent residue.
5) Use a microfiber cloth or designated wipes.
6) Ensure the substrate and module substrate are fully dry before applying the adhesive.
7) (For PVC installations) Grid mark the designated location on the roof.
8) (For Bitumen installations) Grid mark the designated location on the roof. If the
bitumen membrane contains loose aggregates, use flame and spazzle to form even,
aggregate-free lines on the bitumen surface along the planned adhesion lines.
c) Module application on corrugated sheets
1) Apply a continuous 3 to 4-mm diameter adhesive line along the top of the substrate
trapezoidal deck in the designated area, (preferably on a "zigzag" pattern, see pictures
below) (NOTE: applying a larger thickness of glue line may cause under-curing and
result in poor adherence)
2) If protruding screws are present, adhere to an EPDM foam layer on top of the screw
Apply the adhesive layer on top of the EPDM strip (see further details in Annex A)
3) Position the panel in the designated location and push GENTLY against the roof using
your hand or a soft roller tool.
4) All the tops underneath the panels should adhere.
