Do not exceed the maximum height of pallets to be stacked, as indicated on the pallet packaging.
Store pallets in a ventilated, rain-proof and dry location until the Modules are ready to be unpacked. Please
follow Un-Pack Instructions to unpack the packages of Modules.
Do not lift the Modules by grasping the Module's junction box or electrical cable under any condition.
Do not stand or step on the Modules.
Do not drop the Modules on another Module.
Do not place any heavy objects on the Modules to avoid damaging the glasses.
Be cautious when setting the Modules down on to a surface, especially on the corner of the Modules.
Inappropriate transportation and installation may break the Modules.
Do not attempt to disassemble the Modules, and do not remove any attached nameplates or components
from the Modules.
Do not apply paint or adhesive to the Modules top surface.
To avoid damage to the back sheet, do not scratch or hit the back sheet.
Do not drill holes in the frame. This may compromise the frame strength and cause corrosion of the frame.
Do not scratch the anodized coating of the frame (except for grounding connection). It may cause corrosion
of the frame or compromise the frame strength.
Do not attempt to repair the Modules with damaged glass or back sheet.
3.5 Fire Safety
Consult your local authority for guidelines and requirements for building or structural fire safety.
Xtremesolar Modules have been listed as Class C according to IEC 61730-2 standard.
For roof installations, Modules should be mounted over a fire resistant covering suitable for this application,
with adequate ventilation between the Modules back sheet and the mounting surface.
Roof constructions and installations may affect the fire safety of building. Improper installation may create
hazards in the event of a fire.
In order to maintain the fire class rating, the distance between the Modules frame surface and the roof
surface shall be at least 10 cm.
Use appropriate components such as fuses, circuit breakers and grounding connectors as required by local
authority.
Do not use Modules where flammable gases may be generated.
