Each PVL (photovoltaic laminate) utilizes the proprietary Triple Junction solar cells manufactured by
The
UNI-SOLAR . These cells are made in a roll-to-roll deposition process on a continuous roll of stainless steel. The result is a unique, flexible, lightweight solar cell.UNI-SOLAR PV Laminates are encapsulated in UV stabilized polymers making them exceptionally durable. Bypass diodes are connected across each cell, allowing the modules to produce power even when partially shaded.

Data Sheet
Quick Connect Junction Box
These special roofing laminates are designed to be bonded on 16-inch wide (minimum), flat steel pans. They come with the bonding adhesive factory-installed on the back of the laminate. Included is a rugged, weatherproof junction box and/or Quick Connect Terminals.
Triple Junction Technology
The foundation of the new UNI-SOLAR PVL is the Triple Junction silicon solar cell unique to UNI-SOLAR . Each cell is composed of three semiconductor junctions stacked on top of each other. The bottom cell absorbs the red light, the middle cell absorbs the green light and the top cell absorbs the blue light.This spectrum splitting capability is the key to higher efficiency.

NOTES:
During the first 8-10 weeks of operation, electrical output exceeds specified ratings. Power output may be higher by 15%, operating voltage may be higher by 11% and operating current may be higher by 4%. Electrical specifications (±5%) are based on measurements performed at standard test conditions of 1000 W/m2 irradiance, Air Mass 1.5, and Cell Temperature of 25°C after long-term stabilization. Actual performance may vary up to 10% from rated power due to low temperature operation, spectral and other related effects. Maximum system open-circuit voltage not to exceed 600 VDC. Specifications subject to change without notice.
* Refer to section 690.8 of the National Electric Code for an additional factor of 125%, which may be applicable.
