1. General Safety Advice
Please ensure all necessary measures are taken to prevent accidents. The use of
PowerSets in applications that may endanger human lives is prohibited, including
in air and road transport systems.
PowerSets must not be used for anything other than their expressed purpose.
Solar Frontier strongly advises you to follow the instructions below in order to
avoid bodily injury, damage to property and/or death.
PowerSets sold by Solar Frontier GmbH may only be installed by authorized
professionals (see 4.2). As soon as it becomes evident that safe operation is
no longer possible (e.g., visible damage), remove the PowerSet immediately
from the grid.
1.1 Safety advice for Solar Frontier SF165-S/SF170-S
photovoltaic modules
•Installation, wiring and maintenance of SF modules must only be carried out
by licensed and trained persons.
•Ensure that all instructions and warnings related to SF modules and all instruc-
tions from the manufacturer of the system components are fully understood
prior to installing and operating a PV solar system.
•The front surface of SF modules should be covered with an opaque material
during installation to decrease the potential of electrical shock.
•SF modules only generate direct current (DC) electricity.
•SF modules do not have the ability to store electricity.
•SF modules will experience higher voltage when connected in series and
higher electrical current when connected in parallel.
•Only interconnect SF modules with similar electrical characteristics in series or
in parallel to prevent system imbalance conditions and module damage.
•The PV array open circuit voltage must never exceed the maximum system voltage
(including in low temperature conditions)
.
•Excessive leakage currents are a shock and fire hazard.
•Under no circumstances disconnect the cable from operational modules or
electrical arcing may occur. This may result in serious bodily harm or death.
•Do not use SF modules for purposes other than terrestrial power generation to
prevent electrical shock, fire and other accidents.
•Do not artificially concentrate sunlight on modules using lenses or mirrors.
•Do not use light sources other than natural sunlight and general illumination for
power generation.
•Do not use SF modules in water or liquid. Contact with water or other liquid signifi-
cantly increases the risk of electric shock.
•The level of leakage current must be limited in accordance with local regulati-
ons for safety reasons.
•Carefully check the polarity of the connections before installing. Incorrect
wiring may damage SF modules or appliances.
•Only use tools, plugs, cables and support structures suitable for solar electric
systems.
•Wear appropriate protective clothing when working on SF modules and take
all necessary precautions to prevent electric shock, especially when DC voltage
exceeds 30 V.

5. Installation
Compliance with all relevant national and local laws, regulations and di-
rectives, especially for accident avoidance, as well as all relevant technical
standards is mandatory for a safe installation.
5.1 Mounting system / substructure
The PowerSets are delivered without mounting systems. In general, all commonly
available mounting systems which ensure proper mounting following the guideli-
nes in point 5.2.3 are suitable. Your installer will be able to suggest an appropriate
solution.
5.2 Mechanical installation of Solar Frontier SF165-S/
SF170-S photovoltaic modules
5.2.1 Site location
•Ensure that the maximum wind and snow loads in local conditions do not
exceed the SF module maximum load ratings.
•Avoid installing SF modules in areas where they are exposed to oil vapour and/
or corrosive gas.
•Avoid accumulation of grit or dust on the SF modules as it may reduce the
output yield.
•Do not expose SF modules to sulphurous atmospheres.
•Do not install SF modules in locations where flammable gases accumulate or
flow as there is a risk of sparks from SF PV modules.
•Do not install SF modules near fire.
•Avoid installing SF modules in locations where they may be covered by perma-
nent shadows.This may adversely affect their performance.
•Do not install SF modules in locations where temperatures exceed the tempe-
rature range indicated in the module’s technical specifications.
5.2.2 Handling instructions
•Do not disassemble or modify SF modules. This may result in an electric shock,
fire or other accidents. Solar Frontier cannot be held responsible for any loss or
damage caused by unauthorized disassembling, modification or misuse of SF
modules.
•Do not drill additional mounting holes into the aluminium frame. Only pre-
drilled holes should be used.
•Avoid placing any stress onto the SF modules, cables or connectors.
(Minimum bending radius of 39 mm (1.54 in) for module cables is recommen-
ded)
•Do not stand or step on SF modules. This may result in damage to the module
and/or bodily harm by falling.
•Do not drop SF modules or drop objects onto them. Both sides of the module
(the glass surface and the back sheet) are fragile.
•Do not strike the terminal box or pull the cables. The terminal box can crack
and break, while the output cable may unplug and cause electricity leakage or
an electric shock.
•Do not scratch the back sheet or cables of the SF modules. Rubbing or scrat-
ching may result in an electric shock, electric leakage or an accident.
•Do not scratch the insulation coating of the frame (except for the grounding
connection). This may weaken the strength of the frame or cause corrosion.
•Do not cover the water drain holes of the frame. Doing so may cause frost
damage.
•Do not use glue when closing the cover of the junction box. Similarly, do not
use a sealant to bond the junction box lid to its base.
5.2.3 Mounting instructions
Mounting structures cautions
•Pay attention to the electrochemical series when selecting support structure
material to avoid galvanic corrosion.
•Fasten and lock bolts completely. Inadequate mounting may result in SF mo-
dules falling or other accidents.
•Make sure that SF modules have been connected securely to the substructure.
The substructure should consist of durable, rustproof, UV resistant material.
Please adhere to national regulations.
•Ensure that your mounting support structure is designed to withstand the
SF module design snow and wind loads applicable for the chosen site. Solar
Frontier will not be responsible if the SF modules are damaged due to the
durability of the mounting support structure. Please consult your mounting
structure manufacturer.
Mounting the solar modules
•PV modules should typically face south in the Northern Hemisphere and north
in the Southern Hemisphere for optimum power production.
•Modules can be installed horizontally (landscape) or vertically (portrait).
•Maintain a space between SF modules and the roof. This will allow air to circu-
late, cooling the module, and allow condensation to dissipate. Solar Frontier
recommends a distance of at least 100 mm (3.94 in).
Mounting with clamps
Four or more corrosion-proof clamps should be used to fasten the SF modules to
the support structure securely. The clamps should be secured within the indicated
clamping zones (256 mm +/- 75 mm (10.08 in +/- 2.95 in) from the corners of the
long side of the module) using stainless steel M8 bolts with a minimum length of
20 mm (0.79 in).
All clamps must be at least 50 mm (1.97 in) long and 3 mm (0.12 in) thick and
overlap the module frame by 8 mm (0.31 in) or more.
Clamps must not create shadow nor cover the front glass, and shall not deform
the module frames during installation. For further instructions please contact the
clamp manufacturer.
Maximum load: 2,400 Pa (50 lbs/ft2) to the front and back of the module

5.3 Electrical installation photovoltaic generator
5.3.1 Electrical wiring safety precautions
•The sum of Voc of modules in series must not exceed the maximum system volta-
ge of the module under any condition. Reverse current applied to the modules
must not exceed 7 A
.
•Do not touch or handle the PV module, terminal box or the end of output
cables with bare hands.
•Do not carry out installation when PV modules, installation tools or installation
area are exposed to water.
•Ensure that the connection parts between SF modules and power receiving
devices are isolated and waterproof. Using SF modules with insufficient isola-
tion and waterproofing could result in an electric shock, an electric leak or an
accident.
•Keep the junction box and connecting cables away from any liquids until the
connectors are mated. Failure to do this may cause faulty wiring.
•The connecting components between the modules must be compatible
with the connecting system. They must enable them to work perfectly and
completely safely.
•Inverters must meet the technical requirements of SF modules.
•Do not connect the PV modules directly to loads such as motors. Variation in
output power may damage the motor.
•Observe and understand the safety instructions of batteries. Their misuse can
result in serious bodily harm due to high electrical current.
•Cables should be adequately protected from damage by wildlife.
5.3.2 Cabling
Solar Frontier places great value on delivering as many components as possible
pre-assembled in order to help avoid sources of error.
As each roof and PV installation has its own peculiarities, certain cables have to be
adapted on site to the system and assembled accordingly. For example, the cables
for extending the connecting cables to reach the inverter have to be assembled
on site. In addition, if there are obstructions on the roof (e.g. dormers) it may be
necessary to bridge the increased distance with extension cables. The DC cable,
sockets and plugs which are included in the PowerSet are for this purpose.
An Amphenol crimping tool (H4TC0001) is also required for crimping the contacts.
This is not included in the PowerSet. Pre-assembled connecting cables must not
be altered.
Please ensure a clean and proper assembly of the cables to avoid error sour-
ces and to ensure safe cabling.
The following tools are required to assemble the cables:
- Mounting key (not included in the delivery)
- Crimping tool for twisted contacts (not included in the delivery)
- Insulation stripping pliers (not included in the delivery)
Shortening and stripping the insulation from the DC cable
First, the cable has to be shortened to the proper length. Then the outer insulation
is removed with suitable insulation stripping pliers to a length of 7-8 mm.
Please take care not to damage the wires in the DC cable. This could reduce
the cross section and cause electrical faults.
See Figures 8 and 9:
Figure 9
Figure 8
Crimping the twisted contacts
Push the stripped end of the cable into the opening in the crimp sleeve as shown
in Figure 10. Make sure that all of the wires are inside the contact crimp sleeve.
The wires must be visible in the small opening.
Inspection hole
Figure 10
Use only the Amphenol crimping tool (H4TC0001) to crimp the contacts. For more
detailed information on using the crimping tool please consult the manufacturer's
operating manual.
See Figures 11 and 12:
Fig ur e 11 Figure 12
A visual check of the crimping results and a pull test are needed to ensure correct
crimping. See Figures 13 and 14.
Figure 13
Figure 14
The pull test should be for at least 310 Newton.
Assembling the plugs and sockets
To assemble the plugs and socket the respective cover should be pushed over the
contact until a clear click is heard or felt. The click shows that the contact is in the
right position in the plug/socket. Contacts cannot be released when they have
been positioned.
See Figures 15 to 18:
Figure 15
Figure 16
Figure 17
Figure 18
The covering cap is to be tightened with 2.6 to 2.9 Nm. A suitable installation
spanner can be used for this purpose.

Carry out installation and wiring work in compliance with all relevant health, safety and environment laws and regulations.
Diagram showing standard module cabling with obstruction
If obstructions make it impossible to connect modules directly side-by-side, the plugs, sockets and DC cable provided can be used to bridge gaps. A simple example is
shown in Figure 23:

Connecting and disconnecting the plug/socket combination:
Connect the plug and socket to each other. A click shows that the connection has been successful. A suita-
ble tool is necessary to open and disconnect the plug/socket combination.. This could be the disconnec-
ting tool as delivered or another suitable tool. See Figure 19.
Never disconnect the plug/socket combination when the system is in operation in order to avoid
electric arcs which can lead to serious injury or death.

5.3.3 Grounding
Grounding cautions
•Be aware of the necessary grounding requirements prior to installation. Your local
authorities can help you further.
•Install arrestors, surge absorbers or any other appropriate lightning protection tools
as needed.
•Module frames, mountings, connection boxes and metal conduits should be
connected to an earth ground as lightning protection, in accordance with local,
regional and national standards and regulations.
•Holes (d 4 mm, 0.16 in) are provided in the aluminium frame of the SF module to
accommodate grounding. The grounding cable must be attached to the module
frame with a screw and washer. There must be an electrical contact. Use a copper
grounding cable with a cross section of at least 2 mm² (AWG14) and a temperature
range of at least -40 to 85 °C.
•Alternatively, it is possible to use grounding lugs with integrated grounding pin,
lock washers and grounding clips or brackets for PV modules as per NEC Section
250. These components must be used in compliance with the grounding device
manufacturer's guidelines. Consult the grounding device manufacturer to identify
the appropriate grounding and bonding device for your mounting structure or
design.
For alternative grounding methods please consult Solar Frontier.
Connect the grounding cable to the point marked with the electrical earth symbol .
Please refer to further instructions provided by the screw or bolt manufacturer.

7.1 Maintenance of Solar Frontier SF165-S/SF170-S
photovoltaic modules
A monthly visual check is highly recommended in order to maintain the efficiency
of SF modules and the security of the mounting.
•Remove any dirt, fallen leaves or bird droppings from the surface, and check
that there is no damage to the surface. Do not use detergent or chemicals
for cleaning dirt off SF modules as it may damage the modules and result in
degradation of insulation.
•Do not use hard brushes for cleaning. Use only soft cloths to remove dirt from
the modules.
•When replacement parts are required, be sure the installer/servicer uses parts
specified by the manufacturer with the same characteristics as the original
parts. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other
hazard.
•Stop using SF modules when any damage or unusual phenomena are obser-
ved. Have them immediately replaced or removed by a qualified technician.
7.2 Maintenance DC system
The DC system is maintenance-free. It is still recommended that cables and con-
nectors are regularly checked for signs of damage.
7.3 Maintenance of Turbo inverters
The inverter is basically maintenance-free. Despite this, it is a good idea to regular-
ly check that the cooling fins on the front and rear sides of the device are free of
dust. Clean the inverter when necessary as described below.
Attention
Danger of destruction of components in devices.
•Do not allow cleaning agents and devices to penetrate between the cooling
fins at the front of the inverter (under the grey hood).
In particular, do not use the following cleaning agents:
- Solvent-based cleaning agents
- Disinfectants
- Coarse or sharp-edged cleaning materials
Removing dust
Dust should be removed using compressed air (max. 2 bar).
Danger
Risk of death by electrocution! Risk of death by electrocution.
Use cleaning agents only with a slightly damp cloth.
Remove heavy soiling with a slightly damp cloth (use plain water). If necessa-
ry, use a 2% curd soap solution instead of water. After cleaning, remove any soap
residue using a slightly damp cloth.

8. Transport and Storage
Pay attention to all advice on the packaging when storing or transporting SF Power-
Sets. A dry room should be chosen for storage. The packaging is not waterproof.
All electronic components should be kept away from liquids during transport and
storage. The SF PowerSets must remain in the original packaging until the installation.
Small amounts of white powder from packaging material may adhere to the mo-
dules. This may safely be ignored and has no affect on performance.
9. Disposal
9.1 Disposal within the EU
This sign on the modules and inverters indicates that these
products must not be disposed of in household waste
when they reach the end of their life cycle.
For disposal and recycling, please take the products to
authorised collection points where you can hand them
over free of charge. Alternatively, in some countries you
may hand them in at the dealer's where you obtain your
replacement goods.
Please contact your local authority for further details on
your nearest authorised collection point.
The DC cables can be disposed of at municipal collection points as electric waste.
Penalties may be imposed for violation of the rules depending on the applicable law.
9.2 Disposal outside the EU
The symbol of a dustbin with a line through it is only valid in the European Union
(EU). If you want to dispose of your product please contact your local authority or
dealer to find out the correct disposal method.

Attention
Danger of yield losses. Activation of the Droop Mode is not permitted in systems
connected to the public electricity grid.
Activation of the Droop Mode is recommended when the inverter is operated in
conjunction with a stand-alone inverter in a system that is not connected to the
public electricity grid.
Droop-Mode: 50 Hz; Droop-Mode 60 Hz: 60 Hz.
