The new product is based on 156 monocrystalline Q.antum half cells and features an open-circuit voltage of 53.58 V to 53.71 V and a short-circuit current ranging from 11.24 A to 11.35 A. It also features an IP68 enclosure rating, an MC4-compatible connector, 3.2mm thermally pre-stressed glass with anti-reflection technology , and an anodized aluminum frame.
The module can be used with operating temperatures of between -40 degrees Celsius and 85 degrees Celsius and its operating temperature coefficient is -0.34% per degree Celsius. It comes with a 25-year linear power output guarantee and a 12-year product guarantee.
