Do not install the PV module in a location where it would be immersed in water or constantly exposed to water from a sprinkler or fountain etc.
• Module can be installed in both landscape and portrait modes 1
• It is recommended to install the same size and the same type of module in one PV array.
• The PV modules shall be installed high enough to keep it away from potential shading, flying sands, snow and water.
• It is recommended to install the PV modules 30cm away from the ground to make sure ventilation.
• Appropriate installation structures shall be chosen to meet required mechanical load.
• It is recommended to install the PV modules with minimum angle of 10 degree to make the dust easily to be washed off.
• It is recommended to keep minimum 10mm gap between PV modules for thermal expansion of materials.
• Install PV modules appropriately according to corresponding mechanical load need.
It is recommended to install PV modules where has excellent sunlight resources. In the Northern Hemisphere, the module should typically face south, and in the South- ern Hemisphere, the modules should typically face north. The most optimistic instal- lation angle varies according to different latitudes and longitudes; please consult experts with appropriate knowledge background when determining the installation locations and angles.
When choosing a site, avoid trees, buildings or obstructions, which could cast shad- ows on the solar photovoltaic modules. Shading causes hotspot and loss of output, even though the factory fitted bypass diodes of the PV module will minimize such effect.
Do not install the PV module near naked flame or flammable materials.
