Figure 2, module installation diagram
11.9 The maximum power generated by direct sunlight onto the solar components is the highest. In order to achieve the best
output power of the components, the first is to select an unobstructed location for the whole year, and the second is to
select the appropriate installation angle. A rough estimate is that the installation of the optimal tilt angle is basically the
same as the local latitude at the installation location. If the component is mounted on a roof or building wall for heat
dissipation, a fixed bracket must be used to maintain a 51mm gap between the roof or wall and the component. Do not
install directly on the roof or wall. The mounting bracket is required to have sufficient strength to withstand all possible
stress loads, including wind and snow.
12. Field Wiring
Each Motech module is factory equipped with two lengths of 4.0mm
2
UL-
Recognized “PV Wire” (90°C rated, sunlight resistant).
Factory cables are terminated with UL/TUV Recognized electrical connectors. Always use mating connectors of the same
manufacturer to ensure compatibility. DO NOT modify or replace the connectors provided with the module; doing so will void
the product warranty.
The waterproof gasket between the wire and the junction box is effective to prevent moisture from
entering the junction box. To prevent moisture from entering the junction box from the wire, the deformation of the waterproof
gasket should be reduced to improve its life.
13. Connector
The wires on the connector and the junction box are not tortuous or crimped. The corner radius of the wire must be greater
than 40mm. The installation method is shown in Figure 3. Avoid keeping the wires or connectors in tension. Improper
installation causes the connector to burn out - the terminal crimping is not loose with standard tools and wires.
Keep connectors clean and dry prior to installation. Dirt and moisture may inhibit proper latching of the
connector, which may lead to reduced system performance or failure of the connector.
