1. INSTALLATION
The mounting method has been verified by SHARP and NOT
CERTIFIED by a third party organization. Please review the
descriptions and drawings carefully; not mounting the modules
according to this method may void your guaranty. This module satisfies
the requirement of mechanical load test at 2400Pa in accordance with
IEC61646.
Mounting Using Long side mounting of Module: Long Edge
(Figure 1)
The modules may be mounted using clips on the long sides of the
module as shown in Figure 1. The clip centerlines must be between
6.2" (157.5mm) and 16.44" (417.5mm) from the ends of the module.
Note that the mounting clips should meet the minimum dimensions
(catch width of 0.2" (5mm) and length of 1.2" (30mm) shown in
Figure 2. The modules should be fixed rigidly by the tool which can
be controlled the tightening torque (torque wrench etc) so that the
module should not slip down. The array rails must support the bottom
of the modules and must be continuous pieces (no breaks in the rail).
Mounting Using Short side mounting of Module: Short Edge
(Figure 2)
The modules may be mounted using clips on the short sides of the
module as shown in Figure 2. The clip centerlines must be between
3.94" (100.0mm) and 9.84" (250.0mm) from the ends of the module.
Note that the mounting clips should meet the minimum dimensions
(catch width of 0.2" (5mm) and length of 1.2" (30mm) shown in
Figure 3. The array rails must support the bottom of the modules and
must be continuous pieces (no breaks in the rail).
Installation direction
PV cells of our thin-film PV module have a stripe line pattern. So,
please avoid shade from covering the striped line pattern.
According to the above-mentioned claim, the PV modules must be
installed with the stripe lines in the vertical position as shown in
Figure 1. The installation with the striped line in a horizontal position
as shown in Figure 3 is prohibited. Permanent damage to an output
characteristic of PV modules may occur, or a corrosion of thin-film
silicon may appear if the PV modules are installed with horizontal
position and are covered by snow, dust and dirt.
