INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL SOLAR MODULES GENERATION 4 (G4.1) – HANWHA Q CELLS AUSTRALIA PTY LTD – EN

INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL SOLAR MODULES GENERATION 4 (G4.1) – HANWHA Q CELLS AUSTRALIA PTY LTD – EN

Installation Site

Please note the following guidelines that apply to the 
installation site:

• 

The modules have been tested according to IEC 61215 
for operation in a temperate climate.

• 

Solar modules are not explosion-proof and are not suitable 
for use in explosive environments.

 

Ä

Do not operate solar modules near highly flammable gas 
and vapors (e.g. gas tanks, gas stations).

 

Ä

Do not install modules in enclosed space.

 

Ä

Do not install modules in locations where they may be 
submerged in water for lengthy periods (e.g. floodplains).

 

Ä

Do not use modules as a substitute for the normal 
roofing (e.g. modules are not rainproof).

 

Ä

Do not install modules in close proximity to air conditioning 
systems

The solar modules are designed for the following applica-
tions:

• 

Operating temperatures from –40 °C to +85 °C  
(–40 °F to +185 °F). 

• 

Wind loads up to max. 4,000 Pa and snow loads up 
to max. 5,400 Pa (Test-load in accordance with IEC 
61215, see chapter 2.3 mounting options).

• 

Installation using a mounting frame for solar modules.

Prevention of Shadowing Effects

Optimal  solar irradiation leads to maximum energy output:

 

Ä

For this reason, install the modules so that they face 
the sun. 

 

Ä

Avoid shadowing  (due to objects such as buildings, 
chimneys or trees). 

 

Ä

Avoid partial shading (for example through overhead 
lines, dirt, snow).

Mounting Frame Requirements

The Modules shall be installed and operated on mounting 
frames that comply with any applicable laws and stipula-
tions as well as with the following:

• 

Conform to the necessary structural requirements.

• 

Compliant with local snow and wind loads.

• 

Properly fastened to the ground, the roof, or the façade.

• 

Forces acting on the module are relayed to the mounting 
substructure.

• 

Ensures sufficient rear ventilation of the module.

• 

Guarantees long-term stability. 

• 

Avoid the usage of different metals to prevent contact 
corrosions.

• 

Allows for stress-free expansion and contraction due to 
temperature fluctuations.

 

Ä

Ensure that no mechanical stresses (e.g., caused by vibrations, 
twisting, or expansion) are generated on the module. 

 

Ä

Ensure that the clamps and the mounting frame are 
compatible.

Clamp System Requirements

Use customary clamps that satisfy the following require-
ments:

• 

Clamp width: 

 40  mm.

• 

Clamp height compliant with a 32 mm frame height.

• 

Clamp depth: 7–12 mm.

• 

Clamps are not in contact with the front glass.

• 

Clamps do not deform the frame.

• 

Clamps that satisfy the structural requirements of the 
installation site.

• 

Long-term stable clamps that securely affix the module 
to the mounting frame.

Module Orientation Requirements

• 

Vertical or horizontal installation is permitted.

 

Ä

Ensure that rain and melting snow can run off freely. 
No water accumulation.

 

Ä

Ensure that the drainage holes in the frame are not 
covered. No sealing.

 

Ä

Maintain the permissible angle of 
inclination.

• 

Minimum angle of inclination: 3°

• 

Maximum angle of inclination: 75°

• 

Follow the directions for installation 
angles < 5° (“Grounding”, p. 18)

75°
