Congratulations on the purchase of your SOLARWATT Solar Module
These instructions describe the assembly,
connection, maintenance, and disposal of
solar modules. Please read them carefully and
comply with them accordingly.
The installation and electrical connection of
photovoltaic systems may only be carried out
by specialist personnel, who are familiar with
this work through their professional qualifica-
tions. For the operation, installation, use and
maintenance of the other components, comply
with the relevant installation instructions from
the manufacturer.
Incorrect installation can cause damage to
property, which could consequently pose a risk
to people. SOLARWATT accepts no responsi
-
bility or liability for losses, damage, or costs
resulting from incorrect installation, operation,
use, or maintenance or losses, damage, or costs
which are connected to any of the above in any
way. The SOLARWATT installation instructions
should be made available to the operator as
part of the solar power system documentation
and stored by the operator.
Failure to comply with the installation instructions results in the warranty and guaran-
tee becoming null and void.
WARNING
Comply with the guidelines, laws, and regu-
lations valid in the relevant country when plan-
ning, setting up, and operating grid-connected
PV systems. For information on additional
requirements, please contact the responsible
local authorities and the network operator.
SOLARWATT solar modules are made from
high-quality materials and high-performan-
ce solar cells, and are therefore extremely
reliable. The quality of the solar modules made
exclusively in Germany is ensured by multiple
tests carried out on the products throughout
the entire production process. SOLARWATT
solar modules are VDE-tested and fulfill the
requirements of the extended test standard
IEC 61215 Ed.2, as well as the safety standard
IEC 61730. In SOLARWATT‘s own research and
development department, tests are carried out
using measuring, testing, and environmental
simulation equipment which go above and
beyond the current valid standards and enable
us to optimize our products continually. If tre-
ated correctly, your SOLARWATT solar modules
will offer you several decades of service.
SOLARWATT recommends insuring the PV
system against reduced yields or damage
with SOLARWATT Full Coverage for complete
security. Further information is available from
your SOLARWATT partner or online at www.

Information on the solar module
Detailed electrical and mechanical properties
for your specific module type can be found on
the relevant data sheet. The key technical data
under standard test conditions [STC, solar cell
temperature: 25°C, irradiation: 1,000 Watt/m²,
air mass: 1.5 (corresponds to a sun elevation
angle of 41.8°)] can also be found on the
nameplate of the solar module.
