Sphere High-Voltage Twin-Cell Fixed Solar Panel 200W · 1480 x 670mm · Black Frame

Description

The Sphere High Voltage Twin Cell Solar Panels are designed for efficient and cost-effective solar power solutions. These panels can produce up to 48.2 Voc, reducing voltage drops and offering a flexible, budget-friendly option for RV solar systems.

Sphere High Voltage panels enable the addition of more panels per string without exceeding the down cable's maximum current rating, allowing the use of thinner gauge wire over longer distances without losing power or efficiency. This results in significant installation cost savings.

Upgrading to multi-panel configurations in existing RV solar systems is easy and cost-effective with Sphere High Voltage panels, which require an MPPT-style solar charger to charge a 12V DC battery bank correctly. For panels connected in series, the MPPT charger's PV input limit must accommodate their combined open-circuit voltage, including its increase in cold conditions.

While partial shading caused by roof-mounted accessories such as antennas, air-conditioners and roof vents can drastically reduce the overall output on standard solar panels, Sphere's innovative Twin Cell design allows a single panel to operate as if it were two independent smaller panels.

This unique parallel design means even if one side of the panel is shaded, the other side can still perform at full capacity, whereas in a traditional solar panel this would cause a severe bottleneck.

Features

• Twin Cell Technology - reduces impact of partial shading for improved performance
