Module wiring:
HIP-190BE3,
HIP-180BE3, HIP-175BE3,
HIP-167BE3
• The maximum number of HIP-
190BE3, 180BE3, 175BE3, 167BE3
modules that can be wired in series is
ten (10).
• The following SANYO solar
modules, HIP-
190BE3, 180BE3,
175BE3, 167BE3
are not designed to
fit them to charging batteries. It is not
recommended to use them to charge
batteries without any measures.
When you use them for charging
batteries, please consult your dealer.
• These module types contain factory
installed bypass diodes. If these
modules are incorrectly connected
each other, the bypass diodes or
cable or junction box may be
damaged.
Array Wiring
The term "array" is used to describe
the assembly of several modules on a
support structure with associated
wiring. Use copper wire that is sunlight
resistant and is insulated to withstand
the maximum possible system open
circuit voltage. Check your local codes
for requirements.
Electrical Protection
The HIP-
190BE3, 180BE3, 175BE3,
167BE3
Module complies with the
requirements of Electrical protection
Class II.
If necessary, the module or array can
be grounded.
Module Terminations
A junction box as terminal enclosure is
equipped for electrical connections on
SANYO modules.
The HIP-
190BE3, 180BE3, 175BE3,
167BE3
modules are equipped with
MC plugs as terminal enclosure. Use
these MC plugs for electrical
connections.
Please contact your local dealer with
questions regarding other electrical
connections for modules.
Junction box configuration
and description of terminals
(for reference)
Modules equipped with one junction
box contain terminals for both positive
and negative polarity, and bypass
diodes.
Two terminals are dedicated to each
polarity (with the polarity symbols
engraved onto the body of the junction
box ) (see Fig3).

DIODES
Bypass Diodes
When the modules in series strings
are shaded partially, it may cause a
reverse voltage across cells or
modules, because the current from
other cells in the same series is forced
to flow through the shaded area, and
then undesirable heating may occur.
The use of a diode to bypass the
shaded area can minimize both
heating and reduction of array current.
All SANYO modules are equipped
with factory installed bypass diodes.
The factory-installed diodes provide
proper circuit protection for the
systems within the specified system
voltage, so that you don't need any
3
other
additional
bypass
diodes.
Contact your authorized SANYO
distributor or dealer for proper diode
type, if necessary to add or change
diodes due to system specification.
MAINTENANCE
Some maintenance is recommended
to
maintain
optimal
performance of solar cell modules. If
the module surface becomes dirty, it
may cause reduction of output power.
It is recommended to clean the
surface with water and soft cloth or
sponge.
A
mild
non-abrasive
detergent may be applied for the
4
persistent
dirt.
recommended to inspect the electrical
and mechanical connections annually.
If you need electrical and mechanical
inspection or maintenance, it is
recommended to have the authorized
professional carry out the inspection
or maintenance to avoid the hazards
of electric shock or injury.
