Installation Manual
Please read this manual carefully before installation,and keep it for future reference.
Introduction
• Jetion Solar Photovoltaic modules consist of crystalline
silicon solar cells, high transmission and low iron toughened
glass, anti-aging EVA and high flame resistant backsheet,and
anodized aluminum alloy frame.
• Jetion modules are qualified for national standard IEC
61215.2 and IEC 61730, which have passed examination
of the authorisedty test center. Jetion modules can be used
in roof solar systems,PV stations, communication stations,
petrol, ocean, meteorological, traffic and PV buildings etc.
• We are committed to providing technical and installation
support for our customers worldwide.
• This Installation Manual is applicable to the installation
of the following Jetion modules:
JT***SFa/b JT***SAa/b JT***SBa/b
JT***SFc JT***SEc JT***SDc JT***SCc JT***SAc
JT***PFe JT***PEe JT***PDe JT***PCe JT***PAe
JT***SAa/b(Black) JT***SDc(Black) JT***SCc(Black)
Notes:
1. JT***SFa/b is used here as an example.
2. “ *** ” is the rated power of the related Jetion module.
• This manual contains important information regarding the in
stallation, safe handling and maintenance of PV modules
made by Jetion.
• All instructions should be read and understood prior to
installing the modules. The installer should conform to
all requirements in this manual. The appropriate local stan-
dards and regulations, construction rules and safety inst-
ructions should also be followed during installation. All work
on a PV system must be carried out by appropriately qualfied
engineers, who must be familiar with the mechanical and
electrical requirements for such a PV system.
Disclaimer of liability
• The installation, handling and use of Jetion modules are bey-
ond company control. Therefore, Jetion assumes no res-
ponsibility for loss, damage, injury or expense resulting from
improper installation, handling, use or maintenance.
• Jetion reserves the right to update the product, specifications
or this Installation Manual without prior notice.
1) Certificates requests
1.1)
IEC 61730
Jetion modules are designed to fulfill the criteria of Applica-
tion class A requirements according to IEC 61730-1.
Modules rated for use in application class A may be used in
systems operating at greater than 50V DC or 240W, where
general contact access is anticipated. Modules qualified for
safety through IEC 61730-1 and IEC 61730-2 within applica-
tion class A are considered to meet the requirements for
safety class.
1.2) UL
• The electrical characteristics are /- 10% of the rated
values of Isc,Voc and Pmp under test conditions (irradiance
of 100 mW/cm2, AM 1.5 spectrum,and cell temperature of
25°C).
• The stand-off height should be at least 100mm (3.94in), and
the recommended stand-off height is 115mm (4.53in). If
other mounting means are employed, this may affect the
Listing For Fire Class Ratings.
• The modules have been evaluated by UL for a maximum
positive or negative design loading of 30 lb/ft² (146.5 kg/m²).
• Wiring methods should be in accordance with the NEC.
• For installation in Canada, the installation shall also be in
accordance with CSA C22.1, safety Standards for Electrical
Installations, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1.
2) Installation requirements
2.1) Installation environment requirements
•
Avoid shading:
Even if the smallest local shelter/shadow (such as dust depo-
sition) will also decrease the output power.
•
Adequate ventilation:
High temperature of the module may reduce the perfor-
mance and output power of the module. Good ventilation
can effectively avoid the overheating of PV modules.
• Others:
- Do not install the module near inflammable gas (such as
gas station, gas tank etc.)
- Do not install the module near naked flame or flammable
materials.
- Do not install the module in a location with potential for extre-
me sand and dust damage.
- Do not install the module in a location with extreme air
pollution, such as chemical vapors,acid rain,and/or soot.
- Do not expose the module to a laser source.
