The Renusol Rear Grip Clamp for CS (Part No. REN-420023) extends the ConSole+ (CS+) mounting range
to PV modules that don't have usable mounting holes in their frame. Some modules — including many 72-cell panels — either
lack frame mounting holes entirely or have them positioned somewhere the standard ConSole+ U-profile clamp can't reach. The Rear Grip Clamp solves this
by gripping the module frame directly at the rear rather than bolting through a pre-drilled hole, allowing these modules to be
installed on the classic ConSole+ ballasted tray where they previously couldn't be fitted.

ⓘ For Modules Without Usable Frame Mounting Holes
This clamp is specifically for PV modules that either have no mounting holes in the frame, or have them positioned somewhere the standard ConSole+ U-profile can't clamp — a common issue with 72-cell modules. If your module's frame holes align with the standard ConSole+ clamping position, this accessory isn't required.
✓ Widens ConSole+ Module Compatibility
Before this clamp was available, frameless-hole or awkwardly-drilled modules simply couldn't be fitted to the ConSole+ system. The Rear Grip Clamp means the classic ConSole+ tray can now be specified for a wider range of module designs without switching to a different mounting family.
Frame-Grip Fixing, No Holes Required
Rather than relying on a bolt through a pre-drilled frame hole, the clamp grips the module frame directly, making it possible to mount modules whose frames have no usable holes at all.
Solves the 72-Cell Module Problem
Many 72-cell modules have their frame mounting holes positioned in places that don't line up with the ConSole+ clamping rail — this clamp bypasses that limitation entirely by clamping the frame edge instead.
Extends the Classic ConSole+ System
Rather than requiring installers to move to a different mounting range for awkward modules, the Rear Grip Clamp lets the proven ConSole+ ballasted tray stay the standard choice across a broader module range.
Fits the Standard R520075-K Tray
The clamp is designed to work with the standard ConSole+ (R520075-K) base tray, so no separate tray or platform purchase is needed — it's an addition to the existing system, not a replacement.
Targeted at a Specific Module Size Range
Compatibility is defined by the module's vertical (frame length) dimension, so it's worth checking module datasheets against this range before ordering to confirm fit.

Do I need this clamp for every ConSole+ installation?
No. It's only needed for modules that don't have usable frame mounting holes in the position the standard ConSole+ U-profile clamp requires. Most standard framed modules mount to ConSole+ without this accessory.
What module sizes is this clamp designed for?
The Rear Grip Clamp is intended for modules with a vertical (frame length) size greater than 1750 mm and less than 2150 mm. Check your module's datasheet against this range before ordering.
Why would a module not have mounting holes?
Some module designs, particularly certain 72-cell panels, either omit frame mounting holes altogether or place them somewhere that doesn't align with the ConSole+ clamping rail. This clamp grips the frame directly instead of relying on a hole.
Does this replace the standard ConSole+ tray?
No. The Rear Grip Clamp is fitted in addition to a standard R520075-K ConSole+ tray — it's an accessory that extends compatibility, not a replacement mounting platform.
