•
Under normal conditions, a photovoltaic eArche is likely to experience conditions that produce more
current and/or voltage than reported at standard test conditions. Accordingly, the values of Isc and
Voc marked on this eArche should be multiplied by a factor of 1.25 when determining component
voltage ratings, conductor current ratings, fuse sizes, and size of controls connected to the PV output.
•
Only use same or connectable connectors to connect eArche to form a string, or connect to another
device. Removing the connectors will void the warranty.
Fire safety
•
Consult your local authority for guidelines and requirements for building or structural fire safety.
•
Roof constructions and installations may affect the fire safety of a building; improper installation may
create hazards in the event of a fire.
•
Use components such as ground fault circuit breakers and fuses as required by local authority.
•
Do not use panels near equipment or in places where flammable gases may be generated.
•
eArche have been rated Fire Class C, and are suitable for mounting on to a Class A roof.
Production Identification
Each eArche has two labels providing the following information:
•
Nameplate: describes the product type; rated power, rated current, rated voltage, open circuit voltage,
short circuit current, all as measured under standard test conditions; weight, dimensions etc.; the
maximum system voltage is 1000 volts.
•
Barcode: each individual eArche has a unique serial number. The serial number has 18 digits. The 1th
to 4th digits are the module type for internal use, and the 5th and the 6th digits are the year code,
and the 7th and 8th digits are the month and the 9th and the 10th digits are the week code, and the
11th and the 15th digits are order number, and the 16th and the 18th digits are the sequence codes.
For example, XXXX160417XXXXXXXX means the module was made in the 17th week of 2016. Each
module has only one bar code. It is permanently attached to the interior of eArche and is visible from
the top front of eArche. This bar code is inserted prior to lamination.
Mechanical Installation
Selecting the location
•
Select a suitable location for installing eArche.
•
eArche should face south in northern latitudes and north in southern latitudes.
