7. MAINTENANCE
HS modules are designed for long life and require negligible maintenance.
No routine maintenance is required. However it is advisable to perform periodic inspection
of the modules checking for damages front/back glass, junction box or external electrical
connections.
In order to ensure proper operation of the system, please check periodically all wiring
connections searching for loose connections, corrosion and the state of the wire insulation .
Always follow this warning:
Do not touch the solar modules or the mounting structures with your bare hands during
the cleaning process. When these surfaces are exposed to sunlight they can become extremely
hot. Protective gloves should be worn when touching the system components.
7.1 Cleaning
Over the life of a solar module, dust and dirt particles accumulate on the surface of the
module. This build up can reduce the performance of the module. Normally, the buildup of dust
particles will be washed away by periodic rainfall, but for some instances module surface
cleaning may be required. To ensure maximum solar module performance, HelioSphera
recommends cleaning the module surface with water or a conventional glass cleaner. It is
strongly recommended to clean the modules early in the morning or at times when the module
temperature is close to the ambient temperature, in order to avoid sudden temperature changes
of the module, which could lead to glass breakage. A micro-fiber cleaning cloth is
recommended.
No aggressive and abrasive cleansers or chemicals should ever be used on the front
glass. No alkali based chemicals products should be used, including ammonia based solutions.
Cleaning should only be performed by the system installer or someone with equivalent
protection safety training. If you are going up onto the roof to clean the modules, ensure that the
appropriate fall protection is being used.
