Page 6
1 General Information
1.1
Introduction
This operating manual has been written for the DEGERtracker systems S60H. It is part of the product and
must be kept over the entire lifetime of the DEGERtracker. Upon completion of the installation, the
contractor/installer shall provide a copy of the operating manual to the owner of the PV system, or any
subsequent purchaser/owner of the PV system.
1.2
Fundamental safety notes
This assembly manual must be read completely before the start of assembly work and should always be
available during all assembly work.
Assembly work must only be carried out by qualified specialist personnel.
The total slewing range of the DEGERtracker must be kept free of any objects.
The entire action range of the installed DEGERtracker must be protected against unauthorized access by
applying appropriate measures, e.g. a fence. A clear notice to stay clear of the slewing range is mandatory
and must be attached at the accessing area to the DEGERtracker.
For all photovoltaic systems acc. to DIN VDE 0185 or 0100 the lightning protection and grounding must be
executed according to country specific guidelines.
Operation of the DEGERtracker must not be started without a fully functional wind monitor. The module
surface must be kept in SAFE position (horizontal/table position), until the function of the wind monitor has
been tested.
If snow has accumulated on the module surface, the module surface must first be cleared. This is
accomplished by manually controlling via the CCB or through the snow sensor. If no functioning CCB
and/or snow sensor is available, the module surface must be cleared manually. The snow sensor shall not
release from the clearance obligation of the module surface from snow.
DEGER recommends an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) to ensure the function of the wind monitor.
