The Alcapower 160W monocrystalline solar panel represents an advanced and reliable energy solution, designed to maximize photovoltaic energy production. Measuring 1230x670x30mm and weighing just 8.66kg, this panel stands out for its compactness and ease of installation.
Monocrystalline technology ensures a high module efficiency of 19%, resulting in a maximum power of 160W with a tolerance of ±3%. The maximum voltage delivered is 19.47V, with a maximum current of 8.22A. Performance is optimized even in variable environmental conditions, thanks to an open circuit voltage of 22.67V and a short circuit current of 8.65A.
This panel is built to withstand the rigors of outdoor environments. The front cover is made of 3.2mm high-transmission, low-iron tempered glass, ensuring durability and increased solar gain. The anodized aluminum alloy frame provides structural strength, with remarkable resistance to wind loads (up to 2400Pa) and snow loads (up to 5400Pa).
Advanced technical features include a wide operating temperature range, from -40°C to 85°C, and a maximum system voltage of 1000V, making it suitable for various system configurations. The IP65-rated junction box ensures effective protection against dust and water jets, while the 50cm-long 2.5mm² cable, terminated with MC4 connectors, facilitates safe and quick connection.
The 210x105 Mono cells, for a total of 33 cells arranged in a 3x11 array, are the heart of this module, contributing significantly to its energy yield. The nominal cell operating temperature (NOCT) of 45±2°C provides an indication of actual performance under solar radiation.
The temperature coefficients, which describe the variation in performance as temperatures vary, are as follows: Pmax -0.400%/°C, VOC -0.330%/°C, and ISC +0.048%/°C. These values are essential for proper system design and for predicting energy yield under different climate conditions. Fire resistance, compliant with UL1703 (Type 1) and IEC61730 (Class C) standards, further attests to its safety and reliability.
The Alcapower 160W solar panel is the ideal choice for those looking for an efficient, long-lasting and safe solution for renewable energy production, for both residential and commercial applications.
