THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS ARE ONLY A GUIDE WE RECOMMEND www.solbian.eu WARNINGS These instructions must be carefully read and understood before proceeding with Solar Panel installation, connection, utilization and maintenance. Touching the electrically active parts of the panel, like terminals, may cause burning, sparks or low voltage discharges, even when the panel is disconnected. -

SAFETY WARNINGS AND ELECTRICAL RISKS Before installing the panel verify the need of permission or licenses that may be requested by the law. If not specified, it is recommended that you follow the newer national and international laws. A bad installation can cause problems to the entire electrical system. Additional devices such as groundings, fuses, diodes, charger or power disconnector switch may be required. -

Page 11: Installation
Solbian Solar Panels must not be bent to a chord height greater than 25% of the chord length. i.e. The depth of bend must not exceed 25% of the length or width of the panel. - Page 12 When installing a Solbian Solar Panel with Terminal Strips permanently to a rigid structure like a cabin top or hard top on a bimini, etc., it is suggested to first mark the position with masking tape or a temporary frame. Then make a cardboard copy of the panel with holes cut where the wires to the Terminal Strips will exit.

Page 13: Electric Connections
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS There are several possible ways to connect multiple SOLBIAN Solar Panels to the batteries, either individually or by wiring them in series or paralell and sharing a common controller. However, it is not recommended to connect Solar Panels in marine applications in series. - Page 14 Solban 40 watt and 50 watt Solar Panels have an 8v nominal output, and so a special boost controller must be used to boost this to charge a 12v battery. Use the Genasun GVB 12-8 Boost controller on 40 watt and 50 watt panels. Best results are gained from installing one controller per panel, paralleling their outputs to the battery.
- Page 15 Two or more panels can be connected in parallel to one controller as long as the controller is rated to take the combined output Blocking diodes must be installed in the positive lead of each panel, as shown. NOTE: In this configuration, if one panel output is reduced by shading, it will compromise the output of the other panel also.
- Page 16 8 volt When installing Solbian Solar Panels on a 24v 12 volt system, use Genasun GVB 24-8 Boost controllers. Best results are obtained with one controller per panel and their outputs paralleled to the battery. (Figure 4)
- Page 17 This configuration is not recommended. Use 2 x Genasun GVB 24-8 Boost controllers as shown in Figure 3...

Check the system occasionally for electrical efficiency and signs of deteriating output. POSSIBLE BREAKDOWNS Failures of Solbian Solar Panels are rare due to the stringent quality controls that each panel is subjected to before being released for sale. The following are among the possible causes of failure unrelated to the manufacturing process: Cells breaking due to excessive bending of the panel;...
