Monocrystalline Solar Panels Instruction Manual – Version1
THE MONOCRYSTALLINE SOLAR PANEL
REDARC Monocrystalline Solar Panels are highly efficient with a robust design. A tempered glass
coating combined with an anodized aluminium frame ensure that our panels will withstand harsh
road conditions and extreme weather conditions.
WARNING & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS — This manual contains
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS for REDARC
Monocrystalline Solar Panels.
DO NOT operate Monocrystalline Solar Panels UNLESS YOU
HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THIS MANUAL and the Panel
is installed as per these installation instructions. REDARC
recommends that the Panel be installed by a suitably
qualified person.
WARNING
RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES:
Working in vicinity of a Lead-Acid battery is dangerous.
Batteries generate explosive gases during normal operation.
For this reason, it is of utmost importance that you follow the
instructions when installing and using the Solar Panel.
WARNING: Check the manufacturers data for your battery
and ensure that the ‘Absorption’ voltage of the regulator you
select does not exceed the manufacturers recommended
maximum charging voltage. If the ‘Absorption’ voltage for your
battery type is too high, please select another charging profile
or regulator (regulator not included).
CAUTION
1. This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they are supervised or have been instructed on
how to use the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
2. Do NOT connect the Solar Panel directly to a Battery. A
Solar Regulator must be used between the Solar Panel
and the Battery.
3. Only use the Solar Panel for charging Lead Acid, Gel,
Calcium content, AGM or Lithium Iron Phosphate 12V
batteries using a Solar Regulator suitable for the
Battery’s chemistry.
Check the manufacturer’s data for your battery and ensure
that the ‘Maximum’ voltage of the profile you select does not
exceed the manufacturer’s recommended maximum charging
voltage. If the ‘Maximum’ voltage is too high for your battery
type, please select another charging profile.
4. The Battery should be mounted in a well ventilated area,
as far as possible from any ignition sources. NEVER
smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of battery
or engine. This may cause the battery to explode.
5. An unconnected panel exposed to light may generate
voltages greater than 20V on their leads. Completely
cover all panels with an opaque material during
installation, and when connecting or disconnecting
conductors to reduce the chance of an electrical spark.
6. The Solar Panel will achieve best results when proper
battery maintenance is regularly performed. This includes
but is not limited to checking water and specific gravity
levels of the battery.
7. Do not use mirrors or other devices to artificially
concentrate sunlight on the panel.
8. All panels used in series, parallel, or series-parallel should
be positioned to receive identical amounts of light to
reduce risk of panel damage.
9. Partially shaded or partially obscured solar panels will have
reduced output, and can potentially damage the solar panel.
PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
10. To assist with the safe operation and use of the Solar
Panel when connected (via a Regulator) to the battery:
a) Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection.
Avoid touching eyes while working near a battery.
b) If battery acid contacts your skin or clothing, remove
the affected clothing and wash the affected area of
your skin immediately with soap and water. If battery
acid enters your eye, immediately flood the eye with
running cold water for at least 10 minutes and seek
medical assistance immediately.

SOLAR OPTIMISATION
ANGLE TO THE SUN
REDARC solar panels will perform at their peak with the panel face angled directly towards the sun.
In practice this is not always achievable, so REDARC recommends having your panels face NORTH
at an angle of between 20° and 40° from the ground. This will ensure the best total output from
your panel across the course of the day, no matter what season.
In the southern hemisphere, the sun is always in the NORTH half of our sky. As such facing your
panel NORTH ensures the best angle to the sun for a fixed panel across the course of the day.

The optimal angle from ground of the panel is around 30°. Anywhere between 10° and 40° ensures
good power generation across the course of the day.

SYSTEM INSTALLATION
ABS PLASTIC MOUNTS
ABS Plastic Corner, Side and Spoiler mounts are designed to mount single or multiple panels to your
RV or caravan roof. The ABS plastic can be mounted using silicon adhesive, specifically designed
adhesive tape or screws. The panels are then mounted to the ABS plastic mounts using standard
metal screws.
ABS Plastic spoiler mounts are designed to keep the wind resistance and resulting noise of your
solar installation to a minimum.
