3.2 Installation Precautions
3.2.1 Module’s unpack and transfer
a)
When the whole pallet of modules is delivered to the site and unloaded, make sure the safety of
the modules especially if they need to be lifted for roof projects. Put them into a protective device and
then lift it to the roof to avoid bumping against the wall during the lifting process.
b)
Firstly, tear the stretch film, then move away the top cover after cutting off each module packing
strip while unpacking.
c)
Two installers work as a group, if the modules are fixed with anti-inverted tapes, grasp the module
frame tightly in the same direction and take out the module one by one. It is a must that the operators
remove the adhesive tape of the fixed module one by one, rive one piece and then take out one piece of
module. If the modules are fixed with packing belt, firstly cut the two packing belt, use non-sharp and
dependable items such as anti-falling sticks to hold one side of the long side carton, and then cut the
other side of the carton, two installers take out the modules one by one. Do not tear off all the adhesive
tape at one time to prevent the whole package from toppling over or falling down. The whole process
must be taken very gently. Don’t collide with any hard objects or let any parts of the frame touch and drag
on the ground.
d)
After unpacking, the modules should be installed that day as far as possible. It’s rec
ommended
to take the right amount of modules according to the progress of the project every day. Heavy rain and
other inclement weather may have the potential to soak the packaging which can affect product
reliability, such as storms, typhoons, hurricanes or other events in which they may be blown away. Do
not open the package If the modules need to be stored before installation. The modules should be stored
at room temperature in a dark, dry and ventilated place.

b)
When stacking modules, it needs to be stacked neatly in the horizontal plane, under the condition
of the glass facing down and the back way piled up, while the cardboard bedding need to be underside
the modules. If the modules will be installed on the rooftop, the number of each stack is suggested no
more than 20. In case of the poor load-
bearing capacity, it’s recommended that the designer and/or
installer check with the structural engineer or architect to determine the amount of load allowable for
specific location. During the whole process, the installation tools and other objects must be prevented
from contacting the module surface.
c)
If the modules are requested to be classified by current, the handling personnel are required
to carry out of the level of the current and make a mark separately according to the power on the list.
(e.g. 275W-L, identifies the modules of the packaging according to the power on the list, indicating a low
