7.5 SPEEDSLOT MOUNTING
The Series 6 Module frames include six SpeedSlots on each side, as shown in Figure 7. SpeedSlot clamps
must either extend 10 mm (0.39 in) beyond the inner edge of the frame, or have a retention feature to
prevent module frame dislodgement under load. SpeedSlot clamps must be at least 12 mm (0.47 in) wide
from attachment point through the 10 mm (0.39 in) extension or until point of retention feature, shown in
Figure 8. Clamps should rest on the flat surface of the SpeedSlot.
