Photovoltaic Modules     Make electricity from free, quiet, non-polluting sunlight. No moving parts.

Solar Cells convert sunlight (light not heat) into DC electricity. Cells are wired together and sealed to form a module. Modules are normally constructed with a low-iron tempered glass cover, anodized aluminum frame, ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) around the cells, tedlar back cover and a junction box. Two or more modules are connected together to form an array. When modules are parallel connected, the voltage output is the same as one module and the amps are added together. Two 12 volt modules series connected will have 24 volt output with the same amps as one module. Single crystal cells are dark gray or black. Poly-crystal cells are blue speckled. Some large modules are 20 volt instead of 24 volt. These can be used for charging 12 to 48 volt batteries by using the proper MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) charge controller.
Connectors
- Modules with Connectors do not have a regular junction box. Instead they have pre-wired leads with a male and female plugs for connecting. These plugs are easily connected in series for 24 volt and higher voltages. Special wiring cables are ordered separately to run between modules and combiner box. These durable connectors can save installation time and are popular in larger systems.
REC Alpha Pure Series
Emerging from REC’s leadership in half-cut cell technology, the Alpha Pure is built around 132 half-cut heterojunction cells (HJT) and advanced connection technology, designed by engineering experts from Germany and Singapore. With HJT, REC combines the benefits of crystalline silicon solar cells with those of thin film technologies for much higher efficiency and energy yield, even at higher temperatures. Other product highlights:
 
• Black backsheet (up to 405 Wp).
• REC’s pioneering and award-winning ‘Twin Panel’ design: Introduced in 2014, this delivers demonstrably better performance in shaded conditions.
• REC’s commercialized half-cut cell technology: The Alpha Pure features high efficiency n-type mono wafers between thin layers of amorphous silicon.
• REC’s unique frame design: The 30 mm thin frame construction allows more panels per pallet, an easy installation and allows the Alpha to withstand snow loads of 7000Pa.
• Industry-leading warranty: 25-year product warranty on installations by REC Solar Professionals (otherwise 20 years), and a 25-year power output warranty.
• Even better for the environment: Manufacturing of REC Alpha Pure solar panels requires less energy, which is further reducing the carbon footprint.

A ‘best-choice’ product with strong added value With panel power reaching 405 Wp, the Alpha delivers highly impressive power density of 219 watts/m˛, a key consideration when space is tight – like on any rooftop. With the REC Alpha Pure Series' innovative gapless cell layout uses the entire panel surface to generate power, which translates to higher output from less space. This reduces the Balance of System (BoS) costs. In addition to better economics, users can also look forward to an increase in the value of their property: several studies in various countries show that a premium solar installation on the roof is adding value to the property and is a highly desired extra for home-buyers, not least due to the better energy performance rating.
   

Modules larger than 165 watts are normally too large for UPS shipping and will ship via motor freight. For Truck shipping, the cost about the same for 1-6 modules.
Full pallets offer the lower cost per module. The electrical specs are at Standard Testing Conditions.
