    240W that may be accessible to the public. Module are designed with safety Class ll and fire class rating C. Before to handle and install AIKO PV module, read carefully and understand this Installation ➢ Manual. If you need any explanation, contact AIKO (aikosolar.com).
  • Page 10: Handling Safety

    PV modules can generate DC voltage >30V under standard test conditions (STC), take care to ➢ avoid direct contact. When installing PV modules, wear protective helmets, insulating gloves, and rubber shoes. Do not install PV modules without security precautions. Do not drill holes in the frame, this action may cause PV module insulation failure. ➢...
  • Page 11: Fire Safety

    Take carefully by installing PV modules. In any case, it is forbidden to lift the PV module by ➢ lifting the junction box or cable. At least two or more than two operators must hold the edges of the PV module with both hands. Do not try to dismantle the PV modules or remove any nameplates or components of PV ➢...

  • Page 14: Tilt Angle Selection

    To achieve the maximum annual generating capacity, the optimal orientation and inclination ➢ of PV modules in the installed area should be selected. When the surface of the PV module is perpendicular to sunlight, the output power reaches the maximum output value. AIKO 14 / 25...
  • Page 15: Mechanical Installation

    recommend the installation angle should not less than 10°. The optimal tilt angle of PV arrays should be designed by considering the multi-year average ➢ monthly irradiance, direct irradiance, scattering irradiance, wind speed and other climate conditions at the location. PV modules should be tilted at an angle to receive the maximal annual irradiance.
  • Page 16 ➢ In additions, project design loads must be based on project location, climate, mounting structure and applicable standards. Design loads are determined by bracket suppliers and professional engineering and technical personnel. Please observe both the local laws and regulations and the instructions of structural engineers. 16 / 25...

    PV Modules must be mounted as recommended and illustrated below. Other mounting configurations may be used if consultation is made with, and prior written consent is received from AIKO. Failure to do so will invalidate our warranty. 6.2.1 PV Module Installation Method: Mounting Pressure Clamps Specialized pressure clamps are used to mount modules as shown below.
  • Page 18 It is important to ensure the bolts do not fail due to deformation or corrosion during the overall load of the PV module. AIKO recommend the thickness of washer should ≥1.7mm and use M8 and M6 bolt tightening torques must be within 16~20Nm and 8~12Nm, respectively, depending on bolt classes.

When PV modules are in parallel connection, the current is sum of the individual PV modules as shown in below. PV modules with different electric performance models cannot be connected in the same string.
  • Page 21: Cables And Connections

    AIKO recommends that all cables are run in appropriate conduits and sited away from areas prone to water collection. AIKO recommend use copper cables with a minimum cross sectional area of 4mm² which are rated for 90℃ and are UV resistant shall be used as PV connecting lines.
  • Page 22: Grounding

    If you need to use the connection of different types of connectors, please contact AIKO ➢ customer service (cs@aikosolar.com). 08 Grounding PV modules are designed with an anodized anticorrosive aluminum alloy frame as a rigid support. PV module frames must be grounded to ensure safe use and protect the PV module against lightning and electrostatic damage.
