First Solar Series 6 Plus™

First Solar Series 6 Plus™

Product catalog summary
Overview: The First Solar Series 6 Plus™ is an advanced thin-film solar technology offering superior performance and environmental benefits compared to conventional crystalline silicon modules. It features a high-power photovoltaic (PV) module design optimized for energy production and cost efficiency.
Performance and Design: The Series 6 Plus modules generate up to 8% more energy per watt due to their superior temperature coefficient, spectral response, and shading behavior. They are immune to losses from LID and LeTID, and feature anti-reflective coated glass for enhanced energy production. The innovative design includes an under-mount frame for durability and SpeedSlots™ for fast installation.
Reliability and Durability: These modules are manufactured with 100% traceable QA/QC and exceed IEC standards for performance in extreme conditions. They are immune to power loss from cell cracking and have a durable glass/glass construction with high hail impact certification.
Environmental Profile: The Series 6 Plus has the fastest energy payback time in the industry, with a carbon footprint up to 6 times lower and a water footprint up to 24 times lower than conventional panels. Global recycling services are available.
Warranty: The modules come with a 30-year linear performance warranty, a 12-year limited product warranty, and the industry's first cell cracking warranty.
Technical Specifications: The modules have a nominal power range of 430-460 Watts and efficiency up to 18.3%. They are designed for portrait installation only and have specific temperature coefficients for PMAX, VOC, and ISC.
Certifications and Tests: The modules are certified under IEC and UL standards, including salt mist corrosion and dust and sand resistance. They are also compliant with regional certifications and extended durability tests.
Quality and EHS: The modules are ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 certified, and EPEAT Silver registered.
