Mechanical installation
Site selection:
★ In north latitude area it is best to face south for the module, while in south latitude area, it is best to face north. It is best that the front of the module is perpendicular to the direction of midday sun light.
★ Fix bracket installation, the module is recommended to be installed at an optimum angle of inclination for maximum capture of sunlight. According to the right hand helical law, basically the same latitude as the installation site, facing the equator. The design must be based on the local conditions and choose the best inclination.
★ Track bracket installation, installation methods are also two kinds of block and bolt installation, specific installation methods refer to the installation instructions, at this time the module does not have a fixed installation inclination, nor will it face the equator, but the angle of tracking the sun from east to west.
★ When installing solar modules on the roof, be sure of maintaining a safe working area between the edge of the roof and the solar arrays. There must be a certain safety distance between arrays of large power stations in order to facilitate the cleaning, inspection, and maintenance of modules inside the array.
★ The components shall be installed in a position with full sunlight and not shall be covered from 9:00am to 15:00pm on the winter solstice.
★ The modules can not be used in the vicinity of the equipment or place where the flammable gas is generated and stored.
★ The modules can not be installed in the environmental area where module defects are caused by various chemical reactions, such as acid rain, alkaline gas, salt mist, etc.
★ The modules can not be installed in the environmental area that exceeds maximum system voltage of the modules, such as high-voltage power lines. The modules’ position should be choose at a safe distance from the high-voltage power while the safe distance should be determined by the high voltage level.
★ If the modules are to be installed on the floor of a dwelling, local regulations such as fences should be complied with (the fences should be kept at a certain distance from the array to avoid shading impact of the fences on the arrays.
★ Do not install the PV modules in the places that may be immersed in water or continuesly exposed to sprinklers or fountains.
