INFORMATION ON THE SOLAR MODULE
Detailed electrical and mechanical properties for your specific module type can be found
on the relevant data sheet. The key technical data under standard test conditions [STC,
solar cell temperature: 25°C, irradiation: 1,000 Watt/m², air mass: 1.5 (corresponds to a sun
elevation angle of 41.8°)] can also be found on the nameplate of the solar module.
TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
Solarwatt solar modules are made from high-quality materials and are therefore extre-
mely stable and long-lasting. The solar modules should nevertheless be left in the packa-
ging until installation to help prevent any damage. The modules should be stored in a
dry place and protected from weather conditions. The packaging (film, tape, pallet, etc.)
should be recycled. Contact the responsible local waste disposal company.
You are responsible for checking the goods and packaging for transport damage imme-
diately on receipt. If any damage is discovered, note it on the shipping papers describing
each pallet in detail, and take photographs as documentary evidence. Have the driver
countersign these notes. If more than 33 % solar modules on one pallet are damaged,
refuse to accept the pallet. Please fill out the complaint form for transport damages
(solarwatt.com) and send it to Solarwatt.
INSTALLATION
During installation, please take into account the locally valid construction regulations,
accident prevention regulations, the relevant, generally accepted rules of technology and
safety regulations for working on roofs and buildings, as well as electrical installations.
The modules may be installed at altitudes up to 2,000 m above sea level.
Solarwatt solar modules must be fixed to suitable substructures, which are designed for
the relevant mechanical wind and snow loads, as well as the weight of the solar modules.
The instructions from the installation system manufacturer must also be complied with.
No mechanical stresses from the actual building (e.g., roof truss) must be transferred to
the solar module. The frame must not be mechanically or chemically processed.
NOTE
Have the structural suitability of the building for the installation of a solar power
system checked by a specialist.
