18.04.2018 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS MLD CONTROL EK-S1 Page 6
These assembly instructions were created for the DEGERtracker. They are a component of the product and
must be saved for the entire lifespan of the DEGERtracker. The assembly instructions must be included with
the DEGERtracker should it be transferred to another party.
 Read these assembly instructions in their entirety before starting assembly work and keep them available
at all times during the assembly process.
 Only qualified personnel may perform assembly work.
 Keep all objects out of the theDEGERtracker’sfull range of pivoting motion throughout its full range of
motion.
 Take necessary actions to protect the installed DEGERtracker in its full range of motion from unauthorized
access, such as enclosing it within a fence. Near the entry area to the DEGERtracker there must be a
warning sign stating that it is prohibited to remain within the range of pivoting motion.
 Lightning protection and grounding must be installed in all photovoltaic systems according to country-
specific guidelines as stipulated in DIN VDE 0185 and 0100.
 Do not operate the DEGERtracker if the wind guard is not functioning. Always keep the module surface in
the SAFE position (table position) until the wind guard has been tested for function.
 If snow has accumulated on the module surface, the module surface must first be cleared. This is
accomplished by manually controlling via the CTC software, the joy stick or through the snow sensor. If no
functioning CTC remote access, joy stick and/or snow sensor is available, the module surface must be
cleared manually. The snow sensor shall not release the module surface from the obligation to be cleared
of snow.
 DEGER recommends an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) to ensure the function of the wind monitor.
As a rule, DEGER’s General Terms and Conditions shall apply. The contents of these documents are
checked continuously and modified as needed. The assembly instructions are available for download in the
dealer section on the website, www.DEGER.biz, and they can also be obtained through the traditional
distribution channels.
Warranty and liability claims will be void if any type of damage occurs that results from one or more of the
following causes:
- Improper or unauthorized use of DEGERtracker
- Operation of DEGERtracker in an improper environment
- Operation of DEGERtracker without taking into account the statutory safety regulations applicable at the
place of installation
- Non-observance of warnings and safety information in all documents relevant to the product
- Operation of DEGERtracker in the absence of proper safety and protective measures
- UnauthorizedmodificationstoDEGERtracker
- Drilling holes in any housing, e.g. EK-S1. Use existing free holes for mounting the housings.
- Failure of the DEGERtracker due to the influence of connected or neighbouring devices outside of the the
permitted limits
- Catastrophesandforcemajeure
1.4.1 Intended purpose of theDEGERtracker
The MLD control with EK-S1 is intended only for the purpose of controlling DEGERtrackers.
DEGERtrackers can be used in the private and commercial sector. They are designed for outdoor installation
and for building integration.
1.4.2 Personal protectiveequipment
The client must provide enough safety equipment for assembly and maintenance work. Supervisors must
ensure safety equipment is worn.
The following safety equipment is mandatory:
- Protectivehelmet
- Safetyshoes
- Safetygloves
Fall protection equipment and PPE to prevent falling when working more than 1 m above the ground
