75W Solar PV Module

Siemens Solar is the world’s leading manufacturer of solar modules. Siemens solar cells are based on single-crystalline silicon technology that offers better efficiency than polycrystalline or amorphous silicon and other thin film technologies. Manufactured in compliance with the most stringent quality standards, they are designed to withstand the toughest environmental conditions and are characterized by their long service life.

Siemens‘ proprietary PowerMax® technology optimizes the energy production of individual cells and solar modules for all types of environmental conditions. PowerMax® process optimization includes a special refining technique for ingots, a clean room semiconductor grade production process, and a multistage proprietary TOPS™ (Texture Optimized Pyramidal Surface) process. The TOPS process incorporates the formation of textured pyramids on the surface of the solar cell. These pyramids improve the cell‘s optical properties to maximize photon absorption from direct and diffused light (typical under cloudy conditions). This means that light absorption is especially high, even at low light levels.

SP series modules use 5" semi-round cells for high output power, better economy and only slightly less area efficiency than the SM series. All SP series modules have a single ProCharger-CR junction box that accepts conduit, cable or wire.
