Panasonic 330 black datasheet

330 BLACK SERIES

n-type crystalline silicon

Double-sided textured surface

i-type amorphous layer

Amorphous layer

Transparent electrode (TCO)

Panasonic’s unique heterojunction technology uses ultra-thin
amorphous silicon layers. These thin dual layers reduce losses,
resulting in higher energy output than conventional panels.

PRELIMINARY

Our competitive advantages

High Efficiency at High Temperatures

As temperature increases, HIT® continues to
perform at high levels due to the industry leading
temperature coefficient of -0.258% /⁰C. No other
module even comes close to our temperature
characteristics. That means more energy
throughout the day.

Quality and Reliability

Panasonic’s vertical integration, 22 years of
experience manufacturing HIT® and 20 internal
tests beyond those mandated by current
standards provides extreme quality assurance.

Low Degradation

HIT “N-type” cells result in extremely Low Light
Induced Degradation (LID) and zero Potential
Induced Degradation (PID) which supports
reliability and longevity. This technology reduces
annual degradation to 0.26% compare to 0.70%
in conventional panels, guaranteeing more power
for the long haul.

25 Year Product and Performance Warranty**

Industry leading 25 year product workmanship
and performance warranty is backed by a century
old company- Panasonic. Power output is
guaranteed to 90.76% after 25 years, far greater
than other companies.

Higher Efficiency 19.7%

Enables higher power output and greater energy
yields. HIT® provides maximum production for
your limited roof space.

Enhanced Frame Design

A 40mm frame increases durability and strength,
being able to handle loads of up to 5400Pa.
Also, the water drainage system gives rain water
and snow melt a place to go, reducing water stains
and soiling. Less dirt on the module means more
sunlight getting through to generate power.
