AXITEC INSTALLATION 

– USA 170727 

MAINTENANCE 

 

When the module’s front or back surface becomes dirty, power output is reduced. 

 

It is recommended to clean the front surface of the module with clean water and a mild, non-abrasive 

sponge or cloth for cleaning. 

 

It is also recommended to inspect the electrical and mechanical connections annually. 

SPECIFICATION 

7.1 

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATION (Typical) 

 

The electrical characteristics are within ±3 percent of the indicated values of ISC, VOC, and Pmax 

under standard test conditions (irradiance of 100 mW/cm2, AM 1.5 spectrum, and a cell temperature of 

25°C (77°F)) 

 

Under normal conditions, a solar module is likely to experience conditions that produce more current 

and/or voltage than reported at standard test conditions. 

 

Accordingly, the values of ISC and VOC marked on this module should be multiplied by a factor of 1.25 

when determining component voltage ratings, conductor ampacity, fuse sizes, and size of controls 

connected to the PV output. 

 

Refer to Section 690-8 of the National Electrical Code for an additional multiplying factor of 125 percent 

(80 percent derating) which may be applicable. 

7.2 

GENERAL SPECIFICATION 

Axitec LLC reserves the right to make unannounced alterations to the design and/or technical specifications 

of its solar modules at any time. Therefore, only the datasheet current at the time of manufacture is 

definitive. It is therefore expressly recommended to ensure that the datasheets on hand represent the 

current status before placing an order. When performing assembly or other work on the solar modules, the 

datasheets and user information current at the time of manufacture of the relevant module are to be used 

for reference. The contents of older or newer documents may be incorrect due to interim product changes.
