Sharps new 375 Wp solar panels feature multi-wire technology, with a power conversion efficiency of 20.4%.
Sharp has launched the NU-375KH solar panel in the Japanese market. The new monocrystalline modules are supposedly suitable for gabled roofs with large installation surfaces and different roofing materials.
"The module is 14% more powerful than our conventional panels," says the Japanese electronics manufacturer, attributing the improvements to its multi-wire technology and larger solar cells. “The number of busbars has also been increased compared to our conventional products to reduce electrical resistance. By shortening the length of the finger electrodes that connect the busbars together, the electrical resistance of the finger electrodes is reduced and power loss is suppressed.”
The modules have a nominal power of 375 Wp and a power conversion efficiency of 20.4%. The open circuit voltage is 41.08 V and the short circuit current is 10.83 A. The panels measure 1,755 mm x 1,038 mm x 40 mm and weigh 21.5 kg.
The company claims that the new panels can be installed on roofing materials such as slate, horizontal metal roofs and metal tile bar roofs. It recommends the use of the Smart Rack mounting system developed by the Japanese specialist Takashima Co. Ltd., which is ideal for gabled roofs. |
