PRECAUTION:

Operate Solar PV modules in a safe environment. Suitable and exempt of any risks.

Maximum height to operate the modules is 4000 m above the sea level

Please do not use any abrasive or chemical solution on the modules. Neither on
glass nor on aluminium frames.

Avoid direct contact with salt water.

Solar PV modules are not to be considered as a roofing substitute. Solar PV modules
alone cannot grant waterproofing for the roof.
Roof waterproofing can be obtained considering the addition of a PV module and a
BIPV* solution.
*building integrated photovoltaic.

Operating temperature from -40°C to 85°C.

The best efficiency will be obtained by optimising the angle of inclination and facing
the sun.

When electing final position of the PV modules it is recommended to avoid any
potential shadowing that could result from building, chimney, trees and so on as it
could result in a significant energy loss.

SOLUXTEC’s PV modules can be installed only with mounting structures.

Mounting structures need to comply with any applicable laws specific to the country
of installation.

Modules need to be installed on mounting structure following user guide developed
by manufacturer of mounting structure .

Respect a sufficient ventilation for the PV modules.

Respect mounting structure dilatation to avoid any extra mechanical stress on PV
modules.

Make sure to use a mounting structure material that won’t present any chemical
reaction on PV module frame (corrosion phenomena)

Clamp’s election is important and need to fulfill the minimum standards:
• Frameless module clamps need an EPDM protection to tighten on glass.
For each type of Frameless modules, a minimal length of 120 mm is mandatory.
•
For each type of framed modules, a minimal length of 80 mm clamps is
mandatory.
•
Clamps are not in contact with front glass, or clamps for frameless modules
are not shadowing solar cells.
•
A minimum of 4 clamps/module is mandatory.
•
Tightening force in Newton must follow recommendation of the clamp
producer.
