SoliTek Launched New Bifacial Solar Panels Designed for Carports
Solitek has recently launched its latest product: 370 W bifacial dual glass solar panels designed specifically for carport applications. These panels are constructed with durable 3 mm glass on each side and supported by an anodized aluminum frame. They have been certified for overhead glazing by the German Institute for Building Technology (DIBt) and boast a class 4 hail resistance.
The new 370 W bifacial, dual glass framed panels are a response to growing market demand, particularly highlighted by installation professionals, according to Solitek's CEO, Julius Sakalauskas. He noted, “We decided to include a framed module option within our Solid line, typically known for its frameless products, to facilitate easier installation processes without compromising the exceptional durability our modules are known for. The increased glass thickness enhances the modules' resilience, allowing them to endure significant snow and hail impacts.”
Certified by DIBt, these modules are classified for use as overhead glazing. They are designed to withstand hail impacts (class 4), carry a fire class A rating, and can endure snow loads of up to 10,500 Pa and wind loads up to 5,400 Pa.
The panels are comprised of 60 p-type monocrystalline M6-sized PERC cells, delivering a 370 W power output with an efficiency of 19.57%. Each panel, measuring 1782 mm x 1061 mm x 35 mm and weighing 32 kg, operates with an open-circuit voltage of 40.50 V and a short-circuit current of 11.18 A, supporting a maximum system voltage of 1,000 V.
Equipped with a junction box rated IP 68 and a frame of black anodized aluminum, these panels are designed for longevity and robust performance. The glass covering both sides of the module includes an antireflective coating on the front and float glass on the rear, suitable for operating temperatures between -40°C to 85°C, with a temperature coefficient of -0.32% per degree Celsius.
Solitek is backing these carport panels with a 30-year product warranty, guaranteeing that the end power output will not fall below 87% of the nominal output power after 30 years, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.
