Hello, when I see you question, the first idea that I have is to ask you : what do you want to do ? What exactly. A serial connection of these arrays is - sorry - complete non-sens. Explanation : 9 meters = 58 pieces. In serial connection you add the tension, so you have 58 x 37,5V. That are 2175 Volt - where do you take it from ? Please tell us your plan and we find the right material and connection.

In this application, a wall with length 9 meters and height 13 meters need to be lit, those strips compose the best lumens output for the needed location.
But i am still not sure how can they be connected as a strip one after the other?
Do you have a suggestion to connect them in series so they can be shining along the 9meters?

Is it outside or inside ? To drive a L36 Array, you need a constant current source like this one - one for each Array. But for a wall-washer, I am not sure if i would take an Array. It has a large angle of 120°. That is not useful.

58 pcs. SmartArrays L36 have an output of 215,000 lumens. A equivalent light you get with 8 halogen lamps each 1000 watt. That's enough to light the tower of a church, but it is to much for your wall.

All SmartArrays (that item you ask and others) need a heat sink.
