3MODULE SPECIFICATIONS Module specifications are shown inTable 1-1, Table 1-2 and Figure 1.(Electrical specifications, mechanicalspecifications, ENPHASE Microin-verter IQ7X-96-ACM-US Specifica-tion, module dimensions)1) Rated electrical characteristics arewithin the range of –5% to +10% ofthe values measured at StandardTest Conditions (STC). STC condi-tions are; Irradiance of 1000W/m2,25°C cell temperature, AM1.5 andsolar spectral irradiance per IEC60904-3. Note: At the time of ship-ment, Panasonic guarantees theoutput level of its modules to be -0/+10% against Rated Power in SPECI-FICATIONS based on factory inspec-tion at STC conditions.2) Under real conditions, a photovolta-ic module may experience condi-tions that produce more currentand/or voltage than reported atStandard Test Conditions. There-fore, the Isc value of modulesshould be multiplied by a factor of1.25 to determine ampacity. Anadditional factor of 1.25 may berequired for sizing conductors, fus-es, disconnects, etc. Please refer tosection 690.8 of the National ElectricCode (NEC) for guidelines. The Vocmust be factored according to thelowest recorded ambient tempera-ture recorded for the locationwhere the modules will be installed.Please refer to section 690.7 of theNEC for more information regardingvoltage temperature factors. VBHN330SA17E is equipped withMicroinverter. Refer to Table 1-2 forMicroinverter specifications. Microinverters are DC-AC invertersconnected to PV modules in orderto maximize power harvesting byperforming Maximum Power PointTracking (MPPT) at the modulelevel.MECHANICAL LOADING The modules should be mounted atthe four (4) quarter points by themeans shown in Figure 1. This method offers a maximum loadshown as “Mount Location andLoad Resistance” in Table 1-3 in astatic state on the module surface. Note: This mechanical loading valuewas tested using the mounting de-vice specified in section “MODULEINSTALLATION” As UL Certified Load Ratings, thismodule meets design loads as be-low.1) Positive load with Long framemounting・ 33 psf (0-450mm range from edge･ 75 psf (230-380mm range from edge)2) Negative load with Long framemounting･ 33 psf (0-450mm range from edge･ 61 psf(230-380mm range from edge)･ 75 psf (230-345mm range from edge)3) Positive load with Short framemounting･ 33 psf (0-250mm range from edge)4) Negative load with Short framemounting･ 33 psf (0-250mm range from edge)STANDARDSVBHN330SA17E comply with the require-ments of UL1703 (PV module) and UL1741 (Microinverter, ENPHASE ENERGY,Inc., Type IQ7X-96-ACM-USFIRE CLASS OF PRODUCT The fire rating of this module is validonly when mounted in the mannerspecified in the mechanical mount-ing instructions. The models in this instructions aresuitable to maintain the System FireClass Rating A when used with aListed mounting system and a roofcovering that have been rated as aClass A System when installed on asteep slope roof and/or a low sloperoof with "Type 2" modules.Electrical SpecificationsModel VBHN330SA17ECell Number in Series 96Rated Power, Watts (Pmax) 330Maximum Power Voltage(Vpm) 58.0Maximum Power Current(Ipm) 5.70Open Circuit Voltage (Voc) 69.7Short Circuit Current (Isc) 6.07Cell Type Silicon hetero-junction*Maximum System Voltage 600Factory Installed BypassDiodes 4Maximum series fuse (A) 15Silicon hetero-junction*: Monocrysttaline silicon/amorphoussilicon hetero-junctionMechanical SpecificationsModel VBHN330SA17ELength, mm (inches) 1590 (62.60)Width, mm (inches) 1053 (41.46)Frame Depth,mm (inches) 40 (1.57)Weight, kg (pounds) 19.5 (42.99)Table 1-1.
