Product catalog summary
Overview: The First Solar Series 6 Plus photovoltaic (PV) modules are designed for reliable energy production, optimized design, and superior environmental performance. These modules aim to reduce system, shipping, and operating costs.
Specifications: The Series 6 Plus modules offer a nominal power range of 455-480W with efficiencies up to 19.0%. They have a maximum system voltage of 1500V and are designed to operate within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
Innovative Design: The modules come in two variants: SL for low wind-speed areas and HL for high wind-speed areas. Features include an under-mount frame for easy cleaning, SpeedSlots for fast installation, and a dual junction box design for optimized connections.
Reliability & Durability: Manufactured with 100% traceable QA/QC, these modules exceed IEC standards and are immune to power loss from cell cracking. They have a warranted degradation rate of 0.3% per year.
Environmental Profile: The Series 6 Plus modules have the fastest energy payback time in the industry, with a carbon footprint 2.5 times lower and a water footprint 3 times lower than mono crystalline silicon panels.
Certifications & Tests: The modules are certified under IEC 61215:2021, IEC 61730-1:2016, and other standards, ensuring resistance to salt mist, dust, and sand.
Mechanical Specifications: The modules have a length of 2024mm, a width of 1245mm, and weigh between 33.3kg and 34.0kg depending on the model. They are constructed with heat-strengthened glass and an anodized aluminum frame.
Packaging Information: The SL model is packed with 30 modules per pack, while the HL model has 27 modules per pack, with 18 packs fitting in a 40’ container.
