240W SEMI-FLEXIBLE SOLAR PANEL WITH REAR JUNCTION BOX (MADE IN AUSTRIA)

This 240W monocrystalline solar panel is semi-flexible, high-efficiency, and waterproof, making it perfect for providing free electricity for charging 12V batteries or battery banks to power various applications in permanent outdoor use. It can be easily mounted on flat or curved roofs, such as those on boats, caravans, motorhomes, and RVs. The panel can be attached using adhesive (not included), self-tapping screws, tenax fasteners, or zipping. This model features the junction box and cables on the rear side of the panel, ensuring a professional finish after installation. Please note that creating a recess in the roof or mounting surface is necessary for flush mounting this panel.

Product features:

- Special textured surface significantly reduces light reflection and improves performance in low light and cloudy conditions.

- Robust construction using plastic reinforced with glass fiber creates a sturdy and durable solar panel.

- Incredibly light (only 4.9kg) and very thin (just 2mm), which is great for motorhome and caravan roofs.

- High resistance to salt water environments and a sealed waterproof design make this solar panel ideal for boats and marine applications.

- Junction box on the back allows for a smooth and level surface, free of trip hazards and unsightly cables.

- 100% made in Austria to the highest European quality standards using Austrian and German components. IEC certified.

The textured surface of this panel reduces the reflection of light while maximizing the absorption of light from every possible angle. This ensures high performance in low light or cloudy conditions, or when the light falls at an angle (in the morning, evening, or winter).

The fiberglass plastic used in this solar panel is very strong and durable. Soft and sealed edges of the solar panel make it resilient to mechanical impact on the sides and help avoid long-term delamination.

The solar panel is fitted with 2 x 0.9m cable (4.0mm2 cross-section) with waterproof MC4 connectors, which can be used for easy connectivity to your existing system, linking several panels together, or for connecting 4mm extension cable.

Fitting: 

This flexible solar panel is normally fitted to a roof using a suitable sealant/adhesive (not included). This panel is designed to be flush mounted and therefore requires a recess to be cut into the mounting surface in order to fit the rear junction box and cables.
