5.0 Installation 

Precautions and general safety rules 

 

Before installing the modules, please contact the relevant department to obtain 
information  about  the installation site and the construction permit,  and also 
comply with the installation and inspection requirements.     

 

Check the applicable building codes to ensure that the building to be installed 
and its structure (roof, facade, load-bearing, etc.) has sufficient load-bearing 
capacity. 

 

During installation, make sure that the modules are installed on a fire-resistant 
roof. According to UL790 standards, Sunman eArche modules are rated as fire 
rating C. 

 

The  eArche  modules  are  compliant  with  application  level A  (equivalent  to 
safety level II, IEC 61730-1).

 

This type of modules can be used in systems 

where the public is likely to come into contact with voltages greater than 50V 
or power greater than 240W. 

Environmental conditions 

The modules are suitable for general climatic conditions, ie with reference to IEC 

60721-2-1-  Classification  of  environmental  conditions  Part  2-1:  Environmental 
conditions occurring in nature - temperature and humidity. 

 

If the modules are used in a special installation environment, please consult 
the technical support department of Sunman in advance. 

 

The modules must not be installed near flames or flammable objects. 

 

Do not expose modules to artificial condensing light sources 

 

The modules should not be immersed in water (pure water or salt water) or in 
long-term water environment (pure water or salt water) (eg fountains, sprays, 
etc.). 

 

If  the  module  is  placed  in  a  salt  mist  (ie  marine  environment)  or  in  an 
environment containing sulfur (ie, sulfur sources, volcanoes, etc.), there is a 
risk of corrosion. 

Failure to follow the above precautions, Sunman Warranty will be invalid. 

Installation requirements 

 

Make sure the modules meet the overall technical requirements of the system.
