Sharp ND-205U1 User Manual

205 WATT

MULTI-CRYSTAL SILICON PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULE
WITH 205W MAXIMUM POWER

This poly-crystalline 205 watt module features 12.6% module efficiency

for an outstanding balance of size and weight to power and performance.

Using breakthrough technology perfected by Sharp’s 45 years of research

and development, these modules use a textured cell surface to reduce

reflection of sunlight, and BSF (Black Surface Field) structure to improve

conversion efficiency.An anti-reflective coating provides a uniform blue

color and increases the absorption of light. Common applications include

office buildings, cabins, solar power stations,solar villages, radio relay

stations, beacons, traffic lights and security systems.Ideal for grid-connected

systems and designed to withstand rigorous operating conditions, Sharp’s

ND-205U1 modules offer maximum power output per square foot of solar array.

NEXT GENERATION. BREAKTHROUGH PERFORMANCE.
