Option 1:

 

Ä

Fasten the module with 4 clamps in the 
specified clamping range, 
see Fig. 2, p. 7.

 

Ä

Tighten clamps according to 
manufacturer’s instructions.

 

Ä

Maintain an interval of at least 10 mm between 
two modules along the short side and 5 mm 
along the long side.

10 mm

5 mm

EU

Note! Module damage may occur!

 

Ä

Do not subject modules to mechanical tension. 
Max. torsion 10 mm/m.

Option 2:

 

Ä

Install the module at the 4 mounting points, 
see Fig. 2, p. 7.

 

Ä

Tighten screws according to 
manufacturer’s instructions.

Option 3:

 

Ä

Install the module using mounting profiles, 
see Fig. 2, p. 7.

3  INSTALLATION

3.3 MODULE INSTALLATION

DANGER! 
Risk of fatal injury due to electric shock!

When disconnecting an electric circuit carrying direct current, 
electric arcs can occur that may result in life-threatening injuries.

 

Ä

Do NOT unplug the cable when under load.

 

Ä

Do NOT connect any exposed cable ends.

 

Ä

Electrical work may only be performed by qualified and 
skilled personnel (see page 3).

A solar module generates electrical current and voltage even 
at a low intensity of illumination. Sparks and electric arcs may 
result from the separation of a closed circuit. These can result 
in life-threatening injuries. The danger increases when several 
modules are connected in series.

 

Ä

Please be aware of that the entire open circuit voltage is 
active even at low levels of solar irradiation.

 

Ä

Please follow the valid national regulations and safety guidelines 
for the installation of electrical devices and systems.

 

Ä

Please make sure to take all necessary safety precautions. 
With module or phase voltages of more than 120 V, the safety 
extra-low voltage range is exceeded.

 

Ä

Carry out work on the inverter and the wiring with extreme 
caution.

 

Ä

Ensure that the modules are disconnected at the inverter 
prior to separation.

 

Ä

Be sure to observe the time intervals specified by the inverter 
manufacturer after switching off the inverter.

 

Ä

Make sure that the plugs can not be connected unintentionally.

 

Ä

Before working on the contacts, check them for safety extra-low 
voltage.

Danger! Risk of fatal injury due to electric 
shock!

 

Ä

Never open the junction box.

 

Ä

Do not remove bypass diodes.

Danger! Risk of fatal injury due to electric 
shock!

 

Ä

Never touch live contacts with bare hands.

 

Ä

Cover connectors by suitable protective caps 
until installation.

Danger! Risk of fatal injury due to electric 
shock!

 

Ä

Insulate any exposed cable ends.

 

Ä

Only connect cables with plugs.

Danger! Risk of fatal injury due to electric 
shock!

 

Ä

Only use dry, insulated tools for electrical 
work.
