Introduction
This manual provides important safety
instructions for the Sunflare FLEX60 module and
should be read and understood in its entirety
prior to handling and installation. These modules
have been certified by CSA Group to UL1703 and
UL790 for installation on TPO, EPDM, and PVC
roofing systems.
These installation instructions are valid for
Sunflare FLEX60 modules with the following
model numbers.
The electrical characteristics are within ±10 percent
of the indicated values of Isc, Voc, and Pmax under
standard test conditions (irradiance of 100 mW/ cm2,
AM 1.5 spectrum, and a cell temperature of 25°C
(77°F)).

Installation, commissioning, servicing and repairs
to the module, and an array, should only be
carried out by qualified and authorized persons
in compliance with local and national electrical,
fire, and health and safety codes. If there are any
discrepancies between these instructions and the
applicable local or national codes, the local and
national codes take precedence.
These instructions are intended as a guideline for
professional solar system integrators only. The

FLEX60 modules are not intended for installation
by unqualified end users. These instructions are
to be retained for future reference in case of
maintenance, ownership change, or disposal.
General & Electrical
Safety Information
• Danger!
These modules can produce lethal
electrical voltages when connected in series.
Read all safety information prior to handling.
Failure to adhere to the following safety
guidelines can lead to arcs, fires, and electric
shock hazards.
• The module is considered in compliance with
UL 1703 only when the module is mounted
in the manner specified by the mounting
instructions below.
• Any module without a frame (laminate)
shall not be considered to comply with the
requirements of UL1703 unless the module
is mounted with hardware that has been
tested and evaluated with the module under
this standard or by field inspection certifying
that the installed module complies with the
requirements of UL 1703.
• The PV modules should only be used for the
purpose for which they are intended.
• Concentrated or artificial sunlight shall not
be directed onto the PV module.
• All work on the PV system should be
performed by qualified personnel only.
• Warning!
Solar modules generate direct
current (DC) when exposed to light. Breaking
or opening a connection under load, i.e. when
current is flowing, can cause an electric arc
which will not self-extinguish.
• Never work on the system or module under
load.
• Always turn off and disconnect the inverter
or other loads before working on the system.
