IBC SOLAR PolySol TX Series Installation Instructions Manual

Installation instructions IBC PolySol xxx TX photovoltaic modules.
Meets the safety requirements according to IEC 61730; no UL approval
Electrical Installation – PLEASE CONSULT YOUR INSTALLATION ENGINEER
IBC PolySol TX series photovoltaic modules (PV/solar power modules) generate direct current
when exposed to light irradiation. This manual contains important information on the safety,
installation, and operation of the modules that you should know before using the modules.

General information

•
The solar modules must be assembled and operated according to the latest available
procedures. When assembling, it is vital to observe and to adhere to the respective national
health and safety at work. Special attention should be paid to regulations relating to working
on a roof.
•
Before trying to install, wire, commission, and maintain the modules, first make sure that
you have read and understood all installation and safety instructions.
•
Observe all the local, regional, national, and international legal regulations, directives,
standards, and ordinances during installation.
•
Installation and maintenance work may only be carried out by licensed and qualified
professionals.
•
The modules also generate voltage when they are not connected to a circuit or load
resistor. The modules generate nearly full voltage when exposed to light irradiation totaling
as little as 5% of full sunlight
•
The output power generated by the modules may exceed the specified rated power.
•
The rated values are determined at a radiation intensity of 1000 W/m² and a solar cell
temperature of 25° C according to the industry stand ard. Colder temperatures may lead to a
significant increase in voltage and output.
•
Make sure that modules are only exposed to ambient temperatures ranging from -40° C and
+80° C.
•
Do not use light concentrators (e.g. mirrors or lenses) in attempting to increase the capacity
of the module. The module may be damaged.
•
Avoid bundling rays of lights and directing them onto the module.
•
The modules are only intended for operation outdoors and on firm ground. The modules are
not suitable for mobile usage or for indoor installations.
•
In addition, they are not intended for operation or use in hazardous areas. In particular, this
includes installations in which the modules come into contact with salt water or could be
immersed, in part or in whole, in freshwater or salt water – e.g. on boats or buoys.
•
Only use devices, plugs, cables, and mounting frames that are suitable for use in a
photovoltaic system.
•
Observe all safety measures for the other components used.
•
Modules that are temporarily stored outdoors and not interconnected must be covered, with
the glass side facing down. This serves to prevent water from accumulating on the module
and protects the exposed plugs against damage.
•
Always store the solar modules securely in a dry place. The packaging is not weatherproof!
