Advantages of Seatronic PERC-cell flexible solar panels

• HIGH-EFFICIENCY CELLS: PERC solar panels have an additional layer to conventional photovoltaic panels (which have 2 layers), called the dielectric passivation layer. This layer is placed on the back of the solar cells to optimize efficiency. This cell architecture is therefore currently considered one of the most promising for producing modules with superior efficiency at competitive costs.

• PERFECTLY WATERPROOF DESIGN: These beautifully finished solar panels come with a 3-year warranty and a 5-year 90% efficiency guarantee.

• MANUFACTURING QUALITY: These solar panels are manufactured to ISO9001 and ISO140001 standards to guarantee the highest level of quality.

• TRACEABILITY: Each module is individually tested under ISO conditions, and has a unique serial number that cannot be altered to guarantee a certified level of quality.

• EASY CONNECTION AND INSTALLATION: A perfectly sealed MC4 connector is available at the solar panel output for electrical connection. Grommets are available for easy mounting, and their 30% flexibility means they can be installed on curved supports.

• Important: flexible panels are reserved for surfaces where air circulates under the support, such as hoods and biminis. They can also be used "mobile", by moving them according to the orientation of the sun. In this case, special care must be taken to maintain this ventilation while preventing them from vibrating in the wind. Otherwise, they could be damaged.

For use on non-ventilated surfaces, such as bonding to the decks of ships or the roofs of recreational vehicles, you'll need to orient your choice towards the "DECK PANELS" range

Focus on dielectric passivation :

The dielectric passivation layer helps increase efficiency by:

• Reducing electron recombination - electron recombination blocks the free flow of electrons through the cell, reducing efficiency. The additional passivation layer makes the flow of electrons more stable and coherent, producing additional electrical current.
• Increasing the solar cell's ability to capture light - the passivation layer returns unabsorbed light to the solar cell for a second absorption attempt to produce additional energy, making the cells more efficient.
• Reflecting specific wavelengths that normally generate heat from solar cells. While the back layer of the solar cell absorbs certain wavelengths, accumulating heat and reducing efficiency. Then, an additional passivation layer reflects these wavelengths away from the solar cell, maintaining the solar cell's temperature.
