Panasonic vbhn240sa11 datasheet

Water drainage frame

- Rain water is drained off the module surface.

- This avoids not only water accumulation, but also water stains after drying.

- Even in low-angle installations, water drainage corners keep the module clean.

Power from both sides

- HIT® generates solar electricity simultaneously on the front and on the back side.

- This additional amount of light is combined with the light taken up by the front side of the module.

Light Capturing Technology

- Clean pyramid structures on the cell surface helps more light to be absorbed by solar cells.

Cell technology

Our cell is made of a thin monocrystalline silicon wafer surrounded by ultra-thin amorphous silicon layers. This product offers the industry's leading performance and value, using state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques. The development of

was supported in part by the New Energy and Industrial

the HIT Technology Development Organization (NEDO).

Quality

Panasonic is truly committed to quality since it began developing and manufacturing solar PV in 1975. Since pioneering, developing and launching HIT technology leader, and for decades many satisﬁed customers have placed their trust in the competence in our unique HIT

in the 1990s, we have been the

Special features

The solar modules are 100% emission free, have no moving parts and produce no noise. The dimensions of the modules enable a space saving installation and the achievement of maximum output power possible on a given roof area.

High performance at high temperatures

With its very low temperature coefficient of only -0.30%/°C, our solar cell can maintain a higher efficiency than a conventional crystalline silicon solar cell, even at high temperatures.
