being damaged by sharp objects, as scratches may directly affect product safety.
· Do not leave modules unsupported or unsecured.
· Do not change the wiring of bypass diodes.
· Keep all electrical contacts clean and dry.
PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION
· Each module is equipped with two identical bar codes (one inside the laminate under the front glass, the
second on the rear side of the module) that act as a unique identifier. Each module has a unique serial
number containing 13 (pre March 2013) or 14 (post March 2013) digits.
· A nameplate is also affixed to the rear of each module. This nameplate specifies the model type, as well as
the main electrical and safety characteristics of the module.

MODULE INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS MEASURES AND GENERAL SAFETY
· Prior to installing modules please obtain information about any requirements and necessary approvals for the
site, installation and inspection from the relevant authorities.
· Check applicable building codes to ensure that the construction or structure (roof, facade, support, etc.) can
bear the module system load.
·
RT-series solar modules have been qualified for Application Class A (equivalent to Safety Class II
requirements). Modules rated under this class should be used in systems operating at voltage above 50 V or
power above 240 W, where general contact access is anticipated.
· When installing modules, please ensure the supporting roof has a fire resistant roof covering rated for the
application.
· The fire rating for this module is only valid when the product is installed as specified in the mechanical
mounting instructions.
DO NOT STAND OR STEP on the modules under any circumstances.
Localized heavy loads may cause severe micro-cracks at cell level, which in turn may compromise module
reliability.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
· The module is intended for use in general open-air climates, environmental conditions appearing in nature
Temperature and humidity.
·
Please consult the Restar Solar Renewable Energy Co.,Ltd technical support department for more
information on the use of modules in special climates.
Do not install modules near naked flames or flammable materials.
Do not immerse modules in water or constantly expose modules to water (either fresh or salt) (i.e. from
fountains, sea spray).
· Exposing modules to salt (i.e. marine environments) or sulfur (i.e. sulfur sources, volcanoes) incurs the risk of
module corrosion.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
· Ensure that the module meets the general technical system requirements.
· Ensure that other system components do not damage the module mechanically or electrically.
