Page 4: Safety
• Do not wear rings, jewelry, watches, or other metallic items while working with photovoltaic modules. 3.3 MaInTenanCe Check modules, glass, and frames for damage. Regularly inspect all SunEdison Silvantis Solar Modules for safe electrical connections, sound mechanical connections, and freedom from shading and corrosion. If dirt or debris buildup becomes excessive, periodically clean the glass only with a soft cloth using mild, non-abrasive detergent and water. -
Page 5: Mechanical Installation
• Consider the following factors during system design, which will influence performance: SunEdison solar modules produce the most power when they are pointed directly at the sun, and should be tilted for optimum system performance. Proximity to obstructions such as: walls, buildings, trees, groundcover, snow cover, or dust and debris that have the potential to shade or damage the modules. - Page 6 Installation Manual: sunedison silvantis 60 Cell Pv Modules 5 of 12 Table 4.2a bolT MounT ClaMP MounT MounTIng ConfIguraTIons load ParaMeTers loCaTIons loCaTIons PerPendICular MounTIng Maximum (Cases 1 & 2) Rear Load: Structural rails running perpendicular Clamp mount 2400 Pa or 50 psf...

4.3 addITIonal MounTIng MeThods 4.3 Use of the PanelClaw system (Part Number 500000501) is permitted with SunEdison Solar PV Modules. Structures manufactured by PanelClaw Inc. use a special clamp, or "claw" designed to attached to the flange of the PV module at all four corners, on the two short frame ends. -
Page 9: Electrical Installation
• Electrical characteristics are within plus or minus 5% of rated values for Isc, Voc, Impp and Vmpp. Modules may operate under conditions which may be significantly different than STC. SunEdison suggests multiplying specified ratings by a minimum of 1.25 times or more when specifying the system and balance of system components. Installer should adhere to all local, regional and national codes before planning and design of the system. -
Page 10: Grounding
• There is no limit to the maximum number of series strings that can be combined in parallel. However, when doing so, each string must include overcurrent protection with a maximum rating of 15A. SunEdison recommends the use of DC rated fuses or overcurrent protection devices with the appropriate maximum voltage rating. -
