3. భద్రతా సమాచారం
- Severe Electrical Hazard: Solar modules generate electricity when exposed to light. Always treat the panel as a live electrical component.
- క్వాలిఫైడ్ ఇన్స్టాలేషన్: Installation should only be performed by a qualified technician to prevent electrical shock or damage to the product.
- నిర్వహణ: Avoid dropping, bending excessively, or placing heavy objects on the solar panel.
- వైరింగ్: Ensure all wiring connections are secure and correctly polarized. Refer to local electrical codes for proper grounding and wiring practices.
- పర్యావరణ పరిస్థితులు: Do not immerse the panel in water. While weather-resistant, extreme conditions may require additional protection.
4. సంస్థాపన
- ప్యానెల్ను అన్ప్యాక్ చేయండి: Carefully remove the solar panel from its packaging. Inspect for any visible damage.
- ఒక స్థానాన్ని ఎంచుకోండి: Select a location that receives maximum direct sunlight throughout the day. Consider the panel's flexibility for curved surfaces.
- మౌంటు: Use the pre-drilled holes on the panel to securely mount it to your desired surface (e.g., RV roof, boat deck). Ensure the mounting is robust enough to withstand environmental factors like wind.
- Connect MC4 Cables: Connect the MC4 connectors from the solar panel to your solar charge controller or compatible solar generator. Ensure correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative).
- సిస్టమ్ ఇంటిగ్రేషన్: Integrate the solar panel with your existing solar charging system, ensuring all components (charge controller, battery, inverter) are compatible and correctly connected.
చిత్రం 4: ఉదాample Installation on a Vehicle
The flexible design allows for installation on various surfaces, such as vehicle hoods or roofs, for mobile power generation.
5. ఆపరేషన్
Once installed and connected, the ExpertPower 100W Flexible Solar Panel will begin generating electricity when exposed to sunlight. The power generated will be regulated by your solar charge controller before being stored in a battery or used directly by connected devices.
- సూర్యకాంతి బహిర్గతం: Ensure the panel is positioned to receive maximum direct sunlight. Shading, even partial, can significantly reduce power output.
- పర్యవేక్షణ: If your system includes a charge controller with a display, monitor the charging status and battery voltagమరియు క్రమం తప్పకుండా.
- కోణ సర్దుబాటు: For stationary setups, adjusting the panel's angle seasonally can optimize power generation.
6. నిర్వహణ
- శుభ్రపరచడం: సోలార్ ప్యానెల్ ఉపరితలాన్ని మృదువైన, డి-క్లాత్తో క్రమం తప్పకుండా శుభ్రం చేయండి.amp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
- తనిఖీ: Periodically inspect the panel for any physical damage, such as cracks, delamination, or loose connections. Check the MC4 connectors for corrosion or wear.
- షేడింగ్: Ensure no new obstructions are casting shadows on the panel. Trim nearby foliage if necessary.
- జంక్షన్ బాక్స్: Verify the Micro Junction box remains securely sealed and free from moisture ingress.
