Overview
Overview
This high-efficiency, waterproof 240W monocrystalline solar panel is perfect for permanent outdoor use to provide free electricity for charging 12V batteries to power various applications. The panel is ideal for flat or curved roofs, such as on boats, caravans, motorhomes, RVs etc as it can easily fit to the shape of the roof when mounted. It is normally fitted to a roof using an adhesive (not included), but it can also be secured with self-tapping screws, tenax fasteners and even zipping.
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 fibre creates a sturdy and durable solar panel
- Incredibly light (only 4.75kg) and very thin (just 2mm) which is great for motorhome and caravan roofs
- High resistance to salt water environments and the sealed waterproof design make this solar panel perfect for boats and marine applications
- 100% made in Austria to the highest European quality standards using Austrian and German components. IEC certified.
The textured surface of this solar panel reduces the reflection of light whilst maximising 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 fibreglass 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 compatible connectors which can be used for easy connectivity to your existing system, linking several panels together or for connecting 4mm extension cable.

Installation
Installation
This solar panel comes with a detailed instruction manual which explains wiring and operations. You can download the manual in the Documents tab.
If you are planning to use this panel for charging a 12V battery, it will require a 20A MPPT solar charge controller. To view the full range of MPPT solar charge controllers we offer please visit the Solar Charge Controllers category of our online shop. Note that with a standard non-MPPT (PWM) solar charge controller in a 12V system, the efficiency of charging will reduce significantly.
