3.1 Turnover precautions
3. Precautions for handling, storage and transport
• Please use forklift to unload the Module from the truck (up to two trays of Modules at one time), and place the
Module on the level ground..
• Do not stack the Modules in the project site, so as to prevent collision and damage.
• Please use rainproof fabrics to cover the Modules when they are pending for turnover for a long period so as
to prevent dampness, and do not unwrap the packing.
• Packaged Modules can be transported through land transportation, sea shipping or air transportation, and
make sure the module package is not rolling during transportation.
•Turnover In terms of general transport trucks, up to 2 levels of stacking can be allowed for Module transporta-
tion.
• When handling or installing the Module, do not support the Module through its back plate, avoid carrying the
Module on the operator's back, and avoid use rope to carrying the Module.
• Do not use tricycle to transport the Module. As for transport in the project site, stacking is disallowed.
3.2 Storage precautions
• The Module shall be kept in a dry and ventilated environment, and the storage conditions are as follows: Hu-
midity ＜85%, temperature range -40° C-50° C, and avoid sunlight exposure and humidity. If the Module is kept in
an uncontrollable environment, the storage period shall not exceed 3 months, and additional measures shall be ad-
opted to prevent dampness of connectors and avoid sunlight exposure.
• In any circumstances, please do not stand, climb, walk or jump on the Module. Local heavy load may create
micro cracks on the battery, which further undermines the reliability of the Module.
• For long-term storage of the Module, please be advised to store the Module in a standard warehouse through
shelves with sufficient bearing capacity and storage space, and patrol inspection shall be conducted on a regular
basis to ensure storage safety. If the Module is to be stored in the project site, please avoid the loose ground tend-
ing to subside, but choose the hard ground or higher ground properly leveled and flattened, so as to ensure that
long-term storage of the Module is secure without subsidence and tilting. Once any tilting condition is found, please
properly provide reinforcement, while personal safety is ensured.
• In rainy days, please use rainproof fabrics to completely cover the Module and tray, and take rainproof and
damp-proof measures for the tray and carton; when the weather turns sunny or windy, please timely remove the
rainproof fabrics and dry off the outer packing as soon as possible, so as to avoid subsidence due to dampness
and deformation.
• Avoid water immersion of the tray, and properly secure the ground water discharge measures beforehand to
prevent looseness, subsidence and other unfavorable conditions of the ground due to substantial ponding after
rain. Any unauthorized person is prohibited from accessing the Module storage area, and the Modules should be
stored on a centralized basis.
•Please protect the packing from damage, and open the packing of the Module as per the recommended un-
packing steps. Please be cautious during unpacking, transportation and storage of the Module. Keep the Module
away from edgy articles, especially avoid scratch of the back plate of the Module, as scratch my directly affect the
safety of the Module.
