Maintenance Interval


SMA Solar Technology AG recommends performing the cleaning and maintenance work every 12 months at the latest.

Adverse ambient conditions reduce maintenance intervals

Location and ambient conditions influence the maintenance intervals. In particular, cleaning and corrosion protection work may be required more frequently depending on the conditions at the installation site. Examples of adverse ambient conditions include storms, flooding, coastal location, or a site with high dust pollution levels.

  1. If the product is subject to adverse ambient conditions, a reduction of the maintenance intervals is recommended. Above all, the intervals between cleaning work and corrosion protection should be reduced.
  2. SMA recommends a monthly optical inspection to determine the maintenance requirement.
