Danger to life due to high voltage!
High contact voltages can still occur in the inverter
even when it is disconnected. For this reason, the
following applies:
■
Exercise extreme caution when working on the
inverter and the cables.
■
In order for the high-voltage components to
discharge, it is essential to observe the time
intervals specified by the inverter manufactu
-
rer after switching off the inverter and before
starting any further work. Always observe the
mounting instructions of the inverter manufac
-
turer.
Danger to life from electric arc!
When exposed to light, solar modules produce di
-
rect current. If a closed circuit is opened, e.g. when
the DC line is disconnected from the inverter under
load, a fatal electric arc can occur.
■
Under no circumstances disconnect the so
-
lar generator from the inverter as long as it is
connected to the mains.
■
Ensure flawless cable connections.
■
Connect cables seamlessly and keep them
free from dirt.
Electrical installation
The solar modules are designed for use in PV
systems of application class A and can therefo
-
re be operated in systems with dangerous direct
voltages (greater than 120 V DC according to EN
61730) and power ratings.
PV modules of this application class may be used
in systems with unlimited accessibility.
SF Solar Factory GmbH & Co. KG modules of the
Mono S2, M and P series, which are qualified wi
-
thin this application class according to EN 61730,
meet the requirements of protection class II when
installed in accordance with regulations.
Transport, intermediate storage and safe
unpacking
The modules are sensitive technical components
that require great care when handled. Be especial
-
ly careful, therefore, when transporting and tempo
-
rarily storing the modules and leave them in their
packaging until they are used. Always lift and carry
the modules with both hands and do not use the
junction box as a hand grip.
Do not drop the modules or place them roughly on
hard ground or on the module corners. Do not pla
-
ce objects on the modules. Do not stack modules
on top of each other without protection.
Avoid bending the modules. Do not step on the
modules. Do not work with sharp objects and keep
all electrical contacts clean and dry.
It is advisable to note the serial numbers for sys
-
tem documentation. If intermediate storage of
the modules is necessary, a dry, ventilated room
should be provided.
Clean, non-slip gloves must be worn during all
transport and installation work to prevent injury
from cuts on module edges. In addition, avoid so
-
iling the solar glass with fingerprints, as they can
damage the special coating of the glass.
It is essential to observe the warnings on the
packaging and the enclosed unpacking instruc
-
tions.
