please feel free to use in accordance with the requirements and terms of this installation manual.
• Before installing the solar photovoltaic system, please contact the relevant local authority to
determine the installation permit and installation inspection requirements that meet the local
requirements.
• Direct current (DC) is generated when the module battery face is directly exposed to sunlight or
other light sources. Direct contact with the live part of the module may lead to electric shock and
combustion hazard.
• The front glass of the solar module has the function of protecting the module. The damaged
solar module is electrically dangerous (electric shock and fire). Such modules cannot be repaired or
repaired and should be replaced immediately.
• Under ordinary outdoor conditions, the current and voltage generated by the modules are different
from those listed in the parameter sheet. Parameter table is measured under standard test conditions,
so in determining the rated voltage of other modules in the photovoltaic power generation system,
of the module, refer tothe value of the short-circuit current and open-circuit voltage marked on the
module, and design and installation according to 125% of the value.
• Due to the conditions of photovoltaic power generation is under sunlight, the module can work
normally. Shading has a significant impact on the load generated by the module, and the module
should be completely shielded (e.g., through buildings, chimneys, trees) throughout the year, even
partial shading (e.g., through overhead lines, dirt, snow) should be avoided.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock or combustion, the solar module can be installed with opaque
material on the surface of the module.
• The installation of the module array must be carried out with a solar isolation device and only
qualified professionals can install and maintain the modules.
• If the photovoltaic system uses batteries, and the configuration of module should follow the
opinions of battery manufacturers.
• Do not install modules in areas where flammable gases may be present.
• In the case of power supply is not disconnected, do not use water to extinguish fire.
• Do not move modules by pulling the cables or junction boxes of modules. When moving modules,
two or more people should carry modules with non-slip gloves; Do not carry overhead modules. Do
not move stack modules.
• All modules and systems should be grounded. If there are no special regulations, please follow the
international electrical standards or other international standards.
• Do not stand on or walk on modules as this can damage modules and may pose a risk of personal
injury.
• The modules of the same size and specifications can be connected in series.
• During all transportation, ensure that the vehicle or modules will not be subjected to severe
vibration, as vibration may damage the modules or It causes hidden cracks to the batteries in the
modules.
• During all transportation, do not let modules fall to the ground from vehicles, houses, or hands, as
this can cause damage Bad modules or cells in modules.
• Modules (glass, junction box, connector, etc.) should avoid long-term exposure to the environment
containing sulfur, strong acid, strong alkali and other corrosive risks to the product.
• Do not use corrosive chemicals to wipe the modules, do not brush paint or corrosive substances on
the surface of the modules;
• Do not disconnect modules when the load is working.
• Photovoltaic modules use anti-reflective film technology, if the module is observed at differen
angles found color difference, this is a normal phenomenon. It is not recommended that coated and
non-coated modules be installed on the same array or roof.
• The connector of the junction box should not be in contact with oily substances, organic solvents
and other corrosive materials to avoid damaging the connector. Such as alcohol, gasoline, lubricant,
rust inhibitor, herbicide and so on.
• Before installation of modules, it is recommended to add rain proof facilities in the storage of the
project site to avoid direct open placement.
• Do not install modules under artificial spotlight.
• Maximum altitude of PV module ≤2000m.
2. Installation
Note: Module mechanical loads (including wind and snow pressures) are based on installation method
and location and must be calculated by professional installers according to system design
requirements.
When the photovoltaic power generation system uses the battery, the battery must be installed
correctly, which can protect the operation of the system and ensure the safe use of users; Please
follow thebattery manufacturer's instructions for installation, operation and maintenance; In general,
batteries (or batteries) should be kept away from major traffic routes for people and animals; In
addition to the normal operation of batteries, avoid direct sunlight, rain and snow erosion, and
maintain good ventilation. Most batteries produce hydrogen when they are charged, which can easily
explode. Be sure not to light an open flame or create sparks around the battery. If the battery is
installed outdoors, it must be placed in a specially designed place with good insulation and
ventilation.
Latitude of the
installation site Installation Angle
During system design, in addition to the ground type and ground height, proper array spacing and how
to avoid shadowing on the back need to be considered. Please consult professional system designers.
Note:
1) All installation methods introduced here are for reference only, Crown is not responsible for
providing relevant installation modules, module system design, installation. Mechanical loading and
safety must be done by a professional system installer or experienced person.
2) Before installation, the following important items need to be confirmed:
A) Before installation, check the appearance for defects or other sundries and the safety
performance of the junction box, if any, remove it.
B) Check whether the serial number of the module is correct.
3) The maximum pressure that the front side of The Crown solar module can bear is 5400Pa (only for
the module models involved in this manual), and the back side is 2400Pa. The maximum design
pressure that the front side can withstand is 3600Pa and the back side is 1600Pa. The safety factor is
1.5. If the environment for installing modules is snowy or windy, take special protection measures to
meet actual requirements.
The frame of a single solar module has eight mounting holes of 9mm x 14mm. To ensure the fastness
of the solar module after installation, all eight mounting holes must be used. Install the solar module
on the guide rail with M8 anti-corrosion screws, elastic washers and flat washers, and the torque used
should be large enough to allow the module to be properly fixed. The reference torque of M8 screw
ranges from 16 N·m to 20N·m. If a special support system or installation method is required, please
reconfirm the torque value with
the support supplier. For detailed
installation information, see Figure

3. Connection
A) Please read the operation manual of solar system carefully before installation, and use multi-port
connection cable series or parallel solar modules according to user's requirements for system power,
current and voltage.
B) In series, solar modules with the same current should be selected for connection. The total voltage
generated by the modules in series should not be higher than the maximum voltage allowed by the
system. The maximum number of modules in series depends on the system design, inverter type and
surrounding conditions.
C) Mark the maximum rated current value in the solar module array. The rated current also
corresponds to the maximum reverse current that a solar module can withstand on the product
nameplate or product specifications. For example, when one string is shaded, the other two will form
a load leading current loop. According to the maximum rated fuse current of the solar module and the
local electrical installation standard, suitable fuses should be provided for the connection of the
parallel series of the solar module for circuit protection
D) According to the installation instructions of the PV control system, turn on the connectors of the
control system and connect the PV array cables to the connectors. The cross-sectional area and
capacity of the cable must be equal to the maximum short-circuit current of the PV array (for a single
solar module, the cross-sectional area of the cable is 4mm2-6 mm2, otherwise the cable and
connector will overheat). Please note that the cable temperature limit is 85°C.
E) Ensure that all aluminum alloy frames and brackets of solar modules are grounded in accordance
with international or local electrical regulations; Use the reserved holes to connect the hardware to
the ground. Use a stainless steel star washer (see Figure 13-1 or 13-2 in Figure 13-1) between the
ground cable and the frame of the solar module. The washer is used to prevent corrosion caused by
contact with metals of different attributes, and tighten screws. The following figure shows the fixed
grounding scheme. You can choose a grounding scheme based on the solar module installation
vendor's suggestions.
Reference Scheme 1
F) Electrical connections shall comply with the relevant electrical regulations of the installation site.
G) The assembly is equipped with by-pass diodes, which may damage the diodes, cables and junction
boxes if improperly installed.
H) Define the length of the junction box cables as (different installation methods correspond to
different cable lengths for different solar module types), or as required by customers on the length of
the cable. As shown in Figure 14 below, please consider the length of the lead wire before designing
the cable.
I) For Non-PID resistant solar modules, the project system design recommends the negative
grounding installation of the inverter to avoid PID effect.
J) If the solar modules are in series, the total voltage is equal to the sum of the voltages of the
individual solar modules. Recommendations are as follows:
System voltage ≥N * Voc* [1 + TCVoc * (Tmin-25)]
* * note:
N: serial number of single solar module
Voc: Open circuit voltage (refer to product label or datasheet)
TCVoc: Open circuit voltage temperature coefficient (refer to product label or datasheet)
Tmin: Minimum ambient temperature
K) For water projects, it is recommended to adopt negative grounding installation of inverter to avoid
PID effect in project system design.
4. Maintenance
Solar modules need to be inspected and maintained regularly, especially during the warranty period.
In order to ensure that the solar modules can achieve the best performance, Crown recommends the
following maintenance measures:
4.2. Clean
A) The accumulation of dust or dirt on the surface of the solar modules can reduce the power output.
If possible, perform regular cleaning once a year (depending on the conditions at the installation site).
Clean with a soft cloth, dry or damp. It is not recommended to use water containing minerals for
cleaning, so as not to leave dirt on the glass surface; It is recommended to use neutral water to clean
the glass, avoid strong acid and alkali, so as not to damage the glass coating layer;
B) Under no circumstances shall solar modules be cleaned with rough surface materials;
C) In order to reduce potential electric shocks or burns, Crown recommends cleaning photovoltaic
modules in the early morning or evening when the light is not strong and the module temperature is
low, especially in areas with high temperatures;
D) Do not attempt to clean PV modules with features such as broken glass or exposed wires, which
would be at risk of electric shock.
5. Electrical Characteristics
The electrical performance parameters of the solar modules were measured under standard test
conditions of 1000W/m2 light intensity, AM1.5, and ambient temperature of 25 (77 ) with power
tolerances of ±3% and open circuit voltage and short circuit current tolerances of ±5%. In some cases,
the solar module may generate a higher or lower voltage or current than the rated.
