Sole
Sunmodule SL 260 Poly / model 2015
260W Polycrystalline Solar Panel
The Sole SL 260 solar panels herald an innovative new module concept. The Plus-sort (based on a Sole flash report) and five watt model stepping ensures true, highest system efficiency and dispenses with the time-consuming task of sorting the modules on site. The fully automated production process at the Sole factories creates a module quality that is consistently high, which in turn will ensure high yields for the long term.
High-quality, high performance, and high reliability – the Sole module is designed and built for long-term yield stability and ease of use. Every module is factory flashed at standard test conditions (STC) to determine the power output and then sorted in 5 watt increments. Only modules with a flashed power that is greater than or equal to the nameplate rated power are delivered. Flash report data is provided with every order.
The patented box channel frame design provides extraordinary stiffness in bending and torsion. The laminate with 4mm glass is set deep in the frame channel and secured with precision applied adhesive. The frame is assembled by press fit to maximize strength and longevity. The result is an extremely robust package that can be mounted in any orientation and can withstand static loads of up to 113 psf.
Sole provides a 10-year Limited Product Warranty and 25-year Linear Service Warranty*.
