NOTE
Do not remove any parts or nameplates from the solar module. Do not install
damaged solar modules.
Also not allowed are modifications of the solar module, such as the conversion to the use
of the heat generated in the form of a thermal solar collector. If there is no approval in
the form of a manufacturer's declaration or exceptional approval, the solar modules may
not be installed in locations where there are aggressive ambient conditions. Furthermore,
the use of the products on mobile units such as vehicles or ships is not permitted.
During installation, avoid creating shades with the module clips or installation system to
improve the energy yield. Comply with the minimum distance of 5 mm between the solar
modules to allow the material to expand without tension.
Make sure that there are no components such as cable ties, fasteners or similar materials
between the mounting rails and the backside of the module.
WARNING
Solar modules are glass products and must be handled with care accordingly.
To avoid damage, do not walk on the modules. Do not drop any objects on
them or place them on the solar module. Never hold or transport the solar
module by the junction box or connection cables. For installation Solarwatt
strongly recommends the usage of clean, fat and silicone oil free gloves!
WARNING
The solar modules are not designed for concentrated irradiation. Bundling or
concentrating solar irradiation through lenses or mirrors is therefore not permit-
ted and can damage the solar modules.
Solarwatt solar modules fulfill all the requirements of the extended test standard IEC 61215.
The test load for the mechanical load test was increased by the factor of 1.5. The local
regulations or the standard EUROCODE 1 (EN 1991-1) should be used for the calculation of
the snow loads on the module. It is important to note that these standards are designed
for impact on structures and do not explicitly take into account the installation of solar
modules.
