■
Provide adequate ventilation under the modules in conformity to your local regulations.
A minimum distance of 10 cm between the roof plane and the frame of the module is
generally recommended.
■
Always observe the instructions and safety precautions included with the module support
frames.
■
Do not attempt to drill holes in the glass surface of the modules as this will void the warranty.
■
Do not drill additional mounting holes in the module frames of the modules as this will
void the warranty.
■
Before installing modules on a roof, ensure that the roof construction is suitable. In
addition, any roof
■
penetration required to mount the module must be properly sealed to prevent leaks.
■
When installing a module on a pole, choose a pole and module mounting structure that will
withstand the anticipated winds for the area.
■
Dust building up on the surface of the module can impair with module performance. We
recommend installing the modules with a tilt angle of at least 10 degrees, making it easier
for dust to be washed off by rain.
■
Observe the linear thermal expansion of the module frames(the recommended minimum
distance between two modules is 2 cm).
■
Always keep the backsheet of the panel free from foreign objects or structural elements,
which could come into contact with the panel, especially when the panel is under
mechanical load.
■
Ensure panels are not subjected to wind or snow loads exceeding the maximum permissible
loads, and are not subject to excessive forces due to the thermal expansion of the support
structures: See the following paragraph for more detailed information.
