Trina Solar Duomax series modules may be installed in extreme environmental conditions to produce

energy for more than 30 years. In addition to the required IEC certifications, Trina Solar products have also

been tested to verify resistance to ammonia fumes that may be present around barns sheltering cattle, as

well as suitability for installation in humid (coastal) areas and areas of high sand storms(desert).

5.1 INSTALLATION SAFETY

Trina Solar Modules can be mounted in landscape or portrait orientation however the impact of dirt

shading the solar cells can be minimized by orienting the product in landscape.

Always wear dry insulation protection equipment: insulated tools, head gear, insulated gloves, safety

belt and safety shoes (with rubber soles).

Do NOT wear metallic jewelry which can cause electric shock during installation.

Do NOT install modules under rain, snow or windy conditions.

Please keep the connector dry and clean during installation to avoid the risk of electric shock. It is

recommended to install it immediately after unpacking.

Due to the risk of electrical shock, do NOT perform any work if the terminals of PV module are wet.

Please install immediately after unpacking.

The application level of Trina Solar module is Class A, which can be used in systems operating at

greater than 50 V DC or 240 W, where general public contact access is anticipated;

Keep the PV module packed in the Trina carton until installation.

Please use an opaque material to completely cover the PV module surface during PV module

installation and wiring.

Do NOT unplug the connector if the system circuit is connected to a load.

Do NOT stand on the module glass while installing. There is a risk of injury or electric shock if glass is

broken.

Do NOT work alone (always work as a team of 2 or more people).

Do NOT damage the back glass of PV modules when fastening the PV modules to a support with bolts.

Do NOT damage the surrounding PV modules or mounting structure when replacing a PV module.

Cables shall be located and secured so that they will not be exposed to direct sunlight after installation

to prevent degradation of cables. Low drooping of cables from the terminal box must be avoided. Low

hanging cables could cause various problems such as animal biting, electricity leakage in water, and fire.

Modules with different color codes are not recommended to be installed in one block or the same

rooftop.

Protective measures must be taken in the process of installation to avoid force extrusion or impact on

the modules, especially in areas with a 25mm edge around the modules.

The design loading of modules have been evaluated by TUV according to IEC61215 with 1.5 times

safety factor;The mechanical load bearing is dependent upon the mounting methods used and failure to

follow the instructions of this manual may result in different capabilities to withstand snow and wind

loads;The system installer must ensure that the installation methods used meet these requirements and

any local codes and regulations.

5.2 INSTALLATION METHOD

5.2.1 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION AND WARNING

The connection of the module to the racking system can be created with clamps, with frame, or an

embedded system on the frame. The modules must be installed according to the following examples and

recommendations. If a different installation method is desired, please contact Trina Solar customer service

or technical support team for consultation. Improperly mounted modules maybe damaged. If alternative

mounting method is used that has not been approved by Trina, the modules will not continue to carry a

valid warranty.

Panels must not be subjected to wind or snow loads exceeding the maximum permissible loads, and must

not be subjected to excessive forces due to the thermal expansion of the support structures.

The module frame drain holes cannot be blocked in any situation during installation or use.

To maximize mounting longevity, Trina Solar strongly recommends the use of corrosion proof (stainless

steel) attachment hardware.

Secure the module in each mounting location with a boltand a flat washer, spring washer and nut and

tighten to a torque of 16~20 N.m(140-180lbf.in.). The tightening step is as follows :

a. Use torque wrench to tighten nut to target torque: 16~20N.m;

b. Nut loosen 90~180 degrees;

c. Finally tighten the nut to the target torque and reduce the torque attenuation.

All parts in contact with the modules should use flat stainless steel washers of minimum 1.5mm thickness

with an outer diameter of 20-24mm (0.79-0.94in).(Except for Single-axis tracking system)

Flat stainless steel gaskets with a minimum thickness of 1.5mm and an external diameter of 16-20mm

(0.63-0.79 inches) shall be used in all parts of the components connected to the Single-axis tracking

system.

A. Mounting with Bolts 4-φ9*14mm mounting holes, (Applicable to framed Duomax & framed

Duomax Twin)

Modules can be attached using the mounting holes 4-φ9*14mm on the back of the module frame, by

fixing the module to the support rails with bolts. The mounting details are shown in the following

figures.

The frame of each module has 4-φ9*14mm mounting holes, ideally placed to optimize the load

handling capability, to secure the modules to the supporting structure. Installation holes of 4-9*14 mm

are used for installation, as shown in Figure 4

To maximize mounting longevity, Trina Solar strongly recommends the use of corrosion proof

(stainless steel) attachment hardware.

Secure the module in each mounting location with an M8 bolt and a flat washer, spring washer and

nut and tighten to a torque of 16~20 N.m (140-180lbf.in.).

All parts in contact with the modules should use flat stainless steel washers of minimum 1.5mm

thickness with an outer diameter of 20-24mm (0.79-0.94in).
