Solar collector racking system
NAS100 series01281/14 NA
Function
The StarMax V™ collectors must be mounted to two horizontal NAS100 series four slot rails. The StarMax V™ frame will accept the collector clip (in code NAS10006 or NAS10007 kits) mounted along the collector sides without drilling or tapping so the integrity of the frame wall is not compromised. The NAS100 series four slot rail has four 9/16" slots which accept standard stainless steel 3/8" bolts and nuts for mounting collector clips and U-mounts to flashing. The NAS100 series aluminum 6005-T5 four slot channel rail can span 7 feet in moderate wind and snow loads installations.
The NAS10041 2" U-mount mounts directly on top of NAS10030 roof flashing with a 3/8" standard stainless steel nut and attaches into the side slots of the NAS100 series rail using NAS10042 stainless steel 3/8"-16 x 1" bolts, nuts & washers.

Assumptions:* Roof Snow Load listed, linear interpolation is permitted in most cases, edge zone is approximately 3 feet from ridge line and eaves.- Building height must be less than or equal to 30 feet- Maximum cantilever is 18"- Rail splices not permitted immediately over supports or within middle 1/3 of span
For installations that do not conform to the assumptions listed above contact Caleffi for a more complete engineering
A. If the collector array is mounted with top edge within 3 feet of the ridge line, which is in the edge zone, the entire array must comply with the edge zone maximum span distances between supports as specified in the above table.
B. If the collector array is mounted with the side edge within 3 feet of the eave, which is in the edge zone, the individual collector mounted within the edge zone must comply with the edge zone maximum span distances between supports as specified in the above table.
Refer to the above NAS100 series four slot rail maximum span table for the maximum span between the supports. Cantilever distance is not exceed 18". The mounting support locations must be located to comply with the maximum span and cantilever distances for both the length and width dimensions as shown in these diagrams.

Function
Caleffi’s NAS10006 mounting kit allows StarMax V™ collectors to be tilt mounted. Collectors may be mounted to any roof, vertical wall, fascia board, pre-constructed rack or ground mount system. The StarMax V™
collectors must be mounted to two horizontal Caleffi NAS100 series four slot rails or any U type rails (see illustration). The four slot rail collector frame wall will accept the collector clip mounted along the collector sides without drilling or tapping so the integrity of the frame wall is not compromised. The optional rear extension tubes can be cut to length allowing proper elevation and orientation.
Pivot shoes and collector clips are mill finshed and extruded from high tensile strength 6005-T5 aluminum. All stainless steel bolts, nuts and washer are made of 304 stainless steel materials and certified to ASTM F593C and ASTM F594C standards.
NAS10006 tilt mounting kit
Tilt mounting
The tilt mounting kit allows for the collectors to be angled differently than the orientation of the surface they are secured to. This is achieved by placing two rails to the back of the collector and attaching the collector clips, pivot shoes and U-mounts included in hardware kit shown below. The mounting rails and tilt extension tubes are available separately.

Function
Caleffi’s NAS10007 mounting kit allows StarMax V™ collectors to be flush mounted to any elevated surface or ground mount system. The StarMax V™ collectors must be mounted to two horizontal Caleffi NAS100 series four slot rails or suitable U type rails (see illustration). The four slot rail collector frame wall will accept the collector clip mounted along the collector sides without drilling or tapping so the integrity of the frame wall is not compromised.
Collector clips are mill finished extruded aluminum from 6005-T5 high tensile strength aluminum. All stainless steel bolts, nuts and washer are made of 304 stainless steel materials and certified to ASTM F593C and ASTM F594C standards.
Collector clipThe tilt and flush mounting kits contain collector clips which have a unique concave shape with a hole in the center that when tightened, with supplied 3/8"-16 x 1" stainless steel bolt to rails, tension is formed on the bolt nut which keeps clip fastened securely.
NAS10007 flush mounting kit
Flush mounting
The flush mounting kit allows for parallel mounting on a sloped roof surface. This is achieved by placing two mounting rails to back of the collector and attaching with collector clips included in hardware kit shown below. Mounting rails and U-mount 2" are available separately.

NAS10030 Roof flashing kit Function
The Caleffi NAS10030 roof flashing kit provides a sturdy two-bolt application tested to withdrawal strengths of 5,230 lbs. The attractive low profile design (3/4") allows mounting closer to the roof and works well with racking systems. The simple design has fewer components to minimize installation labor. Water stays out because there are no exposed rubber or threads. Allows compatibility with any racking and standoff components, for simpler more cost effective installation.
The NAS10030 flashing kit inclues 3/8" stud for attaching U-mounts and other brackets using the supplied 3/8" stainless steel nut & washer. Black painted aluminum (6061-T6) flashing 14-3/4"L x 9-1/2"W x 0.6"H, galvanized steel base plate with six mounting holes and double stud.
