This manual
applies only on Flisom’s eFlex Series modules
High Voltage
In a PV system the voltage is multiplied by the number of modules in series up to the
stated system voltage. Do not allow the system to exceed the stated system voltage. Be
aware that almost the same voltage stated on the label is present under low light
conditions.
Arcing
PV modules generate direct current when exposed to light. When disconnected a
dangerous arc between the wires may be generated which will not extinguish on its own.
Do not disconnect under load.
Fire Protection
Do not use PV modules in explosive atmospheres. Check the local regulations for fire
protection
Warning
Do not use aggressive solvents or scrubbing materials for cleaning the modules. Do
not use sharps objects. Do not walk on the panels if there is any risk that sharp stones
under the soles, or sharp shoe elements would damage the panel.
The safety instructions for other system components apply. Local standards, building
norms and accident prevention regulations must be followed. Disregarding the
warnings can cause serious injuries or even death.
Keep a minimum distance of 5m
1
to a burning PV system. Inform the public authorities
about the PV installation.
Attention
Do not concentrate light on the modules. Modules and insulations can be destroyed by
concentrated light.
Do not remove the label or use modules without labels attached by the manufacturer.
Reverse currents may damage modules. To avoid reverse currents, maintain an
equivalent voltage in each parallel connected string of the circuit.
Do not cut or thin eFlex panels. Do not drive screws into the laminate.
