2.1 INFORMATION PURSUANT TO ART. 33
OF THE REACH REGULATION
Pursuant to Art. 33 of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006
of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18
December 2006 concerning the Registration, Evalua-
tion, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals
(REACH), establishing a European Chemicals Agency,
amending Directive 1999/45/EC and repealing Coun-
cil Regulation (EEC) No 793/93 and Commission Re-
gulation (EC) No 1488/94 as well as Council Directive
76/769/EEC and Commission Directives 91/155/EEC,
93/67/EEC, 93/105/EC and 2000/21/EC (the “REACH
Regulation”), we inform you that our solar modules
contain a Substance of Very High Concern (“SVHC”)
in a concentration above 0.1 % (weight by weight).
The coating of the ribbon of our solar modules
contains lead (CAS no. 7439-92-1). Under normal or
reasonably foreseeable conditions of use, exposure
to the lead that is contained in our solar modules
can be excluded. However, a release of, and expo-
sure to, lead can take place (i) when the different
components of the solar modules are disassembled,
in particular for recycling purposes, and (ii) in instan-
ces of re.
Lead may damage fertility or the unborn child,
causes damage to organs through prolonged or
repeated exposure, is very toxic to aquatic life with
long lasting effects, may cause cancer, is very toxic
to aquatic life, and may cause harm to breast-fed
children.
Therefore, recycling and all other types of compara-
ble disassembly of the solar modules have to be per-
formed by a qualied waste management company,
in compliance with national and local waste manage-
ment regulations.
In the instance of re, please keep away from the
re, and call the local re brigade.
3.0
MECHANICAL/ ELECTRICAL
SPECIFICATIONS
Module electrical ratings are measured under
Standard Test Conditions (STC) of 1000 W/m2
irradiance, with an AM1.5 spectrum, and a cell
temperature of 25°C. Detailed electrical and
mechanical characteristics of Canadian Solar Inc.
crystalline silicon PV modules can be found in
Annex A (Mechanical And Electrical Ratings). Main
electrical characteristics under STC are also stated
on each module label. Please refer to the datasheet
or the product nameplate for the maximum system
voltage.
Under certain conditions, a module may produce
more current or voltage than its STC rated power. As
a result, a module open-circuit voltage and short-
circuit current under STC should be multiplied by
1.25 when determining component voltage ratings,
conductor ampacities, overcurrent device ratings,

and the size of controls connected to the PV output.
An additional 1.25 multiplier for the short-circuit
current (giving a total multiplier of 1.56), may be
applicable when sizing conductors and fuses, as
described in section 690-8 of U.S. NEC.
Electrical calculations and design must be performed
by competent engineer or consultant.

UNPACKING AND STORAGE
PRECAUTIONS
· Modules should be stored in a dry and ventilated
environment to avoid direct sunlight and
moisture. If modules are stored in an uncontrolled
environment, the storage time should be less than
3 months and extra precautions should be taken
to prevent moisture exposure to connectors or
sunlight exposure to modules.
· Unpack module pallets carefully, following the
steps shown on the pallet. Unpack, transport and
store the modules with care.
· Modules must always be unpacked and installed
by two people. When handling modules always use
both hands.
· Do not lift modules by their wires or junction box;
lift them by the frame.
· Do not stack the modules.
· Do not place excessive loads on the module or
twist the module frame.
· Do not stand, step, walk and / or jump on modules
under any circumstances. Localized heavy loads
may cause severe micro-cracks at cell level, which
in turn may compromise module reliability and
void Canadian Solar Inc’s warranty.
· Do not drop or place objects (such as tools) on
the modules.
· Do not carry modules on your head.
· Do not use sharp instruments on the modules.
· Do not place modules on top of each other
· Do not leave modules unsupported or unsecured.
· Do not change the wiring of bypass diodes.
· Keep all electrical contacts clean and dry at all
times.
PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION
· Each module has two identical barcodes (one
inside the laminate under the front glass, the
second on the rear side of the module) that act
as a unique identier. Each module has a unique
serial number containing 14 digits.
· A nameplate is also axed to the rear glass of
each module. This nameplate species the model
type, as well as the main electrical and safety cha-
racteristics of the module.

have been qualied 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.
· Canadian Solar Inc. double glass modules have
been certied by CSA as Type 3 or Type 13 and by
VDE as Class A for re performance, please refer
to the datasheet or the product nameplate for the
detailed types.
· Consult your local authority for guidelines and
requirements for building or structural re safety.
UL 1703 SYSTEM FIRE RATING REQUIREMENTS
· The re rating for this module is only valid when
the product is installed as specied in the mechani-
cal mounting instructions.
· When installing the modules on rooftop, ensure
the assembly is mounted over a re resistant
roof covering rated for the application.
· A photovoltaic system composed of UL1703
certied modules mounted on a UL2703 certied
mounting system should be evaluated in combina-
tion with roof coverings in accordance with UL1703
standard, with respect to meeting the same re
classication as the roof assembly.
· Mounting systems with a System Fire Class Rating
(Class A, B or C), tested in conjunction with re
rated “Type 3” or “Type 13” rated modules, are
considered acceptable for use with Canadian Solar
Inc. modules, provides the mounting system does
not violate any other requirements of this manual.
· Any mounting system limitations on inclination or
accessories required to maintain a specic System
Fire Class Rating should be clearly specied in the
installation instructions and UL2703 certication of
the mounting system supplier.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
· The module is intended for use in general open-air
climates, as dened in IEC 60721-2-1: Classication
of environmental conditions Part 2-1: Environmental
conditions appearing in nature - temperature and
humidity.
· Please consult the Canadian Solar Inc. technical
support department for more information on the
use of modules in special climates.
Do not install modules near open ames
or ammable 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.
· Failure to comply with these instructions will void
Canadian Solar Inc. warranty.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
· Ensure that the module meets the general technical
system requirements. Ensure that other systems
components do not damage modules mechanically
or electrically.
· Modules can be wired in series to increase voltage
or in parallel to increase current. To connect modules
in series, connect the cables from the positive
terminal of one module to the negative terminal
of the next module. To connect in parallel, connect
the cables from the positive terminal of one
module to the positive terminal on the next module.
· Only connect the quantity of modules that corres-
ponds to the voltage specications of the inverters
used in the system. Modules must not be connec-
ted together to create a voltage higher than the
maximum permitted system voltage, even under
the worst local temperature conditions.
· A maximum of two strings can be connected in
parallel without using over-current protection de-
vice (fuses, etc.) incorporated in series within each
string. Three of more strings can be connected in
parallel if an appropriate and certied over-current
protection device is installed in series with each
string.

· Only modules with similar electrical outputs
should be connected in the same series to avoid
or minimize mismatch effects in arrays.
· To minimize risk in the event of an indirect light-
ning strike, avoid forming loops when designing
the system.
· The recommended maximum series fuse rating
is stated in a table in the Annex.
· Modules should be safely xed to bear all expected
loads, including wind and snow loads.
· A minimum clearance of 10 mm (0.394 in) or more
between modules is required to allow for thermal
expansion of the modules. The clearance is from
the plastic corner protector to adjacent plastic
corner protector.
OPTIMUM ORIENTATION AND TILT
· To maximize your annual yield, nd out the optimum
orientation and tilt for PV modules in your region.
The highest yields are achieved when sunlight
shines perpendicularly onto the PV modules.
AVOID SHADING
· Even minor partial shading (e.g. from dirt deposits)
reduces yields. A module can be considered to be
unshaded if its entire surface is free from shading
all year round. Sunlight should be able to reach the
module even on the shortest day of the year.
· Permanent shading conditions can affect module
service lifetime, due to accelerated ageing of the
encapsulation material and thermal stress on the
bypass diodes.
RELIABLE VENTILATION
· Sucient clearance (at least 10 cm (3.94 in)) bet-
ween the module frame and the mounting surface
is required to allow cooling air to circulate
around the back of the module. This also enables
condensation or moisture to dissipate.
· According to UL 1703, any other specic clearan-
ce required for maintaining a system re rating
should prevail. Detailed clearance requirements
pertaining to system re ratings must be provided
by your racking supplier.
5.1
MODULE WIRING
CORRECT WIRING SCHEME
· Ensure that the wiring is correct before starting up
the system. If the measured open circuit voltage
(Voc) and short-circuit current (Isc) differ from the
specications, this indicates that there is a wiring
fault.
· When modules have been pre-installed but the
system has not been connected to the grid yet,
each module string should be kept under open-cir-
cuit conditions and proper actions should be taken
to avoid dust and moisture penetration inside the
connectors.
· For CS3U and CS3K series modules, Canadian Solar
Inc. offers optional cable specications to match
various system congurations. Recommended
system cable schemes are shown in table 1:
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

|
The maximum distance between two adjacent
module frames should be within 50 mm (1.96 in) for
side with mounting clamps, and within 25 mm (0.98
in) for side without mounting clamps, in order to
meet system cable scheme.
CORRECT CONNECTION OF PLUG CONNECTORS
· Make sure that all connections are safe and
properly mated. The PV connector should not be
subjected to stress from the exterior. Connectors
should only be used to connect the circuit. They
should never be used to turn the circuit on and off.
· Connectors are not waterproof when unmated.
When installing modules, connector should be
connected to each other as soon as possible or
appropriate measures should be taken to avoid
moisture and dust penetrating into the connector.
USE OF SUITABLE MATERIALS
· Only use dedicated solar cable and suitable plugs
(wiring should be sheathed in a sunlight-resistant
conduit or, if exposed, should itself be sunlight-
resistant) that meet local fire, building and electri-
cal regulations. Please ensure that all wiring is in
perfect electrical and mechanical condition.
· Installers may only use single-conductor cab-
le listed and labeled as USE-2 or PV wire which
is 90°C wet rated in North America, and single
conductor cable 2.5-16 mm² (5-14 AWG), 90°C wet
rated in other areas (i.e. TUV 2PfG1169 or EN50618
approved), with proper insulation which is able to
withstand the maximum possible system open-cir-
cuit voltage.
· Only copper conductor material should be used.
Select a suitable conductor gauge to minimize vol-
tage drop and ensure that the conductor ampacity
complies with local regulations (i.e. NEC 690.8(D)).
CABLE AND CONNECTOR PROTECTION
· Secure the cables to the mounting system using
UV-resistant cable ties. Protect exposed cables
from damage by taking appropriate precautions
(e.g. placing them inside a metallic raceway like
EMT conduit). Avoid exposure to direct sunlight.
· A minimum bending radius of 60 mm (2.36 in) is
required when securing the junction box cables to
the racking system.
· Protect exposed connectors from weathering
damage by taking appropriate precautions.
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight.
· Do not place connectors in locations where water
could easily accumulate.
5.2
GROUNDING
· EQUIPMENT GROUNDING: double glass modules
do not present any exposed conductive parts, and
therefore do not require to be electrically groun-
ded for compliance to the North American National
Electrical Code (NEC).
· Proper equipment grounding is still required for

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
The applicable regulations pertaining
to work safety, accident prevention and
securing the construction site must be
observed. Workers and third party
personnel shall wear or install fall arrest equipment.
Any third party need to be protected against injuries
and damages.
· The mounting design must be certified by a regis-
tered professional engineer. The mounting design
and procedures must comply with local codes and
requirements from all relevant authorities.
· Each module must be securely fastened at a mini-
mum of 4 points on two opposite sides. The clamps
should be positioned symmetrically. Canadian Solar
Inc. recommends mounting rails with a minimum
width of 40 mm for ±2400 Pa load and a minimum
width of 60 mm for +5400 Pa / -2400 Pa load.
· Install and tighten the module clamps to the moun-
ting rails using the torque stated by the mounting
hardware manufacturer. System designer and
installer are responsible for load calculations and
for proper design of support structure. It is recom-
mended to use a torque wrench for installation.
Tightening torques should respectively be within
17~23 Nm (12.5~17.0 ft-lb) for M8x1.25-Grade 8.8
(5/16”-18 Grade B7) galvanized or A2-70 stainless
steel coarse thread bolts, depending on bolt class.
The yield strength of bolt and nut should not be
less than 450 MPa.
· Use appropriate corrosion-proof fastening materi-
als. All mounting hardware (bolts, spring washers,
flat washers, nuts) should be hot dip galvanized or
stainless steel.
· Clamp material should be anodized aluminum alloy
or steel of appropriate grade. One buffer rubber
material (Recommended material is EPDM) must be
added between the clamp and the glass.
· Canadian Solar Inc. warranty may be void in cases
where improper clamps or unsuitable installation
methods are found. When installing clamps, take
measures so as:
1. Not to bend the laminate excessively.
2. Not to cast shadow on the cells.
3. Not to damage or scratch the surface of the glass.
4. To ensure the clamps overlap the module by
13 mm to 15 mm.
5. To ensure the thickness of the clamps is at
least 3 mm.
· Clamp positions are of crucial importance for the
reliability of the installation, the clamp centerline
must only be positioned within the authorized posi-
tion ranges indicated in ANNEX B, depending on the
configuration and load.

· The module is only considered to comply with
IEC 61215 and UL 1703 when mounted as speci-
fied in the instructions in ANNEX B. Any module
without a frame (laminate) shall not be conside-
red to comply with the requirements of UL 1703
unless the module is mounted with hardware
that has been tested and evaluated with the mo-
dule under this standard or by a field Inspection
certifying that the installed module complies
with the requirements of UL 1703.
· Double glass modules can be mounted to a
support structure by means of clamps. For
recommended installation methods and load,
please refer to ANNEX B and contact your local
representative for further information. Failure
to use a recognized installation method will void
Canadian Solar Inc. warranty.
7.0
MAINTENANCE
· Do not make modifications to any component
of the PV module (diode, junction box, plug
connectors or others).
· Regular maintenance is required to keep
modules clear of snow, bird droppings, seeds,
pollen, leaves, branches, dirt spots, and dust.
· Modules with sufficient tilt (at least 15°),
generally do not require cleaning (rain will have
a self-cleaning effect). If the module has become
soiled, it shall be washed with water and a non-
abrasive cleaning brush or sponge during the
cool part of the day. Do not scrape or rub dry dirt
away, as this may cause micro scratches.
· Snow should be removed using a soft brush.
· Periodically inspect the system to check the
integrity of all wiring and supports.
· To protect against electric shock or injury,
electrical or mechanical inspections and
maintenance should be performed by qualified
personnel only.
· Please refer to our Installation Manual Annex
of standard solar modules (Section Annex

FRAMELESS DYMOND MODULE
INSTALLATION MANUAL SUPPLEMENT
All the basic requirements of the main
installation manual should apply to this
supplement, unless otherwise specified.
The loads described in this manual correspond
to test loads. For installations complying with
IEC 61215-2:2016 and UL 1703, a safety factor
of 1.5 should be applied for calculating the
equivalent maximum authorized design loads.
Project design loads depend on construction,
applicable standards, location and local
climate. Determination of the design loads
is the responsibility of the racking suppliers
and / or professional engineers. For detailed
information, please follow local structural code
or contact your professional structural engineer.
