Trinasolar Photovoltaic Panel Instructions

What voltages can Trina Solar modules operate at?

Trina Solar modules are certified for operating in Application Class A installations at voltages below 1000V DC (For TSM-PE05A.**, PE14A.**, below 1500V DC).

What temperature should Trina Solar modules be installed in?

Trina Solar recommends that the module should be installed in a working environment with an ambient temperature of -20°C to 50°C, but not exceed the temperature limit of -40°C to 85°C. The modules shall be installed in shadow-free areas throughout the year. Do not install the PV modules at a place where water damage may occur.

How do I clamp a Trina Solar module?

Trina Solar has tested its modules with a number of clamps from different manufacturers and recommends the use of clamps which have an EPDM or similar insulating washer, fixing bolt of at least M6. The clamp must overlap the module frame by at least 7mm(0.28in) but no more than 10mm(0.39in).

Do Trina Solar PV modules have bypass diodes?

Trina Solar PV modules are equipped with bypass diodes in the junction box to minimize module heating and current losses. When using scaffolding, make sure that the scaffolding is in a stable position or with anti-dumping measures, and that the installer should wear a safety belt in accordance with local building codes.

What are the installation methods & mechanical loads used by Trina Solar?

Page 24 Uplift load ≤ 2400 Pa NEG20C.20 Downforce load ≤ 5400 Pa DE20.W DEG20C.20W The following installation methods and mechanical loads have been verified by the Trina Solar’s National Key Laboratory for PV Science and Technology. Module type Mechanical loads Module type Mechanical loads Use 4 clamps on the short side.

What voltage should a Trina Solar inverter be plugged in?

Trina Solar recommend that all cables are run in appropriate conduits and sited away from areas prone to water collection. The maximum voltage of the system must be less than the maximum certified voltage 1500V typically and the maximum input voltage of the inverter and of the other electrical devices installed in the system.
