Are Dualsun panels compatible with the ESDEC FlatFix Fusion mounting systems?

Edited


Dualsun FLASH and SPRING3 panels are compatible with the FlatFix Fusion mounting systems from ESDEC. However SPRING4 is not compatible

  • Roof type: Flat roof

  • Possible layout: Landscape - Ballasted mounting system


You can also consult the FlatFix Fusion mounting system documents available on the ESDEC website and watch the ESDEC FlatFix Fusion system video which details the assembly steps of these flat roof mounting systems.


To consult the compatibility of the Dualsun SPRING and FLASH panels with flat roof installation systems:
Compatibility table - Flat roof

Details for installers:

  • Panel installation: Landscape 

  • Hydraulic Links: Dualsun DualQuickfit  DN15 Landscape 

Installing modules with junction box positioned on the left  (front view):

No interference between DualQuickfit fittings and FlatFix Fusion structural elements:

Top hydraulic line:



Lower hydraulic line:


However, the hydraulic hose of the lower line is slightly crushed at the FlatFix Fusion rail crossing:

No interference between DualQuickfit fittings and FlatFix Fusion structural elements:

Top hydraulic line:



Lower hydraulic line:

Passage of hydraulic hoses without any constraints.

The installation of modules with junction box on the right (front view) is preferred.


Installing hose support hooks:

The hoses do not touch the ground.


Installation of wind deflectors:

No interference with the rear wind deflector.

Cutouts are needed on the lateral wind deflectors for the passage of the hoses:

  • Passage of the lower hydraulic line hose:

- Cutout of the deflector: minimum 4 x 2.5 cm.
- Place a protective sheath on the cut-out area of the deflector to avoid damaging the hydraulic hose.
- Sheath required on the 3 edges (sharp edges).

  • Passage of the upper hydraulic line hose:

- Cutout of the deflector: minimum 4 x 2.5 cm.
- Place a protective sheath on the cut-out area of the deflector to avoid damaging the hydraulic hose.
- Sheath required on the 3  edges (sharp edges).
- Be careful not to cut at the star level allowing the deflector to be attached to the FlatFix Fusion stud.

Steps for installing Dualsun SPRING modules on FlatFix Fusion system:

  • Place the ESDEC FlatFix Fusion system on the roof

  • Lay Dualsun DualQuickfit hydraulic links on the ESDEC  FlatFix  Fusionsystem above the FlatFix  Fusion rails.  

  • Lay each Dualsun SPRING module with junction box on the right, front view

  • Connect the DualQuickfit hydraulic fitting of the lower hydraulic link after each Dualsun SPRING module is installed.

  • The module that has just been installed  can be  lifted to insert the  DualQuickfit hydraulic fitting

  • Maximum number of Dualsun SPRING modules to be connected to a hydraulic line = 6

  • The electrical and hydraulic connection can be made without lifting the modules, however it is possible to lift them to facilitate access
