Recom unveils tri-cut solar panel collection

• The Jaguar series, with 20.81% effectiveness and 445 W of optimal outcome, may be a service for setups with room restrictions. The panels are based upon an unique cell design, which Recom describes as an evolution of the half-cut cell principle.

Germany-based PV module producer Recom has launched a brand-new panel series based upon a tri-cut cell design

The Jaguar series includes 5 various panels with power ratings of 420 W to 440 W, and effectiveness ranging from 19.44% to 20.58%. With total measurements of 2151 x 994 x 40 mm and a weight of 24 kg, the panel features an MC4-compatible adapter and a junction box with an IP 67 ranking.

Its front side is covered with 3.2 mm reinforced glass, while the backsheet features anti-aging EVA film. Its operating temperature level is between -40 C and 85 C, while the open-circuit voltage operating temperature coefficient is -0.3 % per degree (Celsius).

The panels can be made use of in PV systems with a maximum voltage of 1,500 V. The maker provides a 15-year power result assurance for 89.80% of the initial return.

Cell style.

The product is based upon an unique cell style, which the maker specifies as an evolution of the half-cut cell principle. "The Tri-Cut modern technology divides the cells in 3 parts as well as lower to one 3rd the present," the business explained. "This pushes forward the performance limit of half-cut modules."

It stated the new tri-cut style can contribute to a 75% decrease of power losses triggered by electrical resistance in the bows that link the panel strings.

"The Jaguar Series is a suitable solution for area-constrained installments or to optimize the equilibrium of system by decreasing the installment costs," Recom stated.
