BP 3160B
160 Watt 24 Volt Solar Panel
Type: Performance Multicrystalline
Bronze frame with output cables and polarized Multicontact (MC) connectors
The BP3160B ("B" for bronze frame) solar panel is designed to provide superior value and performance for residential, commercial and industrial use. With time-tested multicrystalline silicon solar cells, it provides cost-effective power for DC loads or, with an inverter, AC loads. With 72 enhanced-efficiency cells in series, it charges 24V batteries (or multiples of 24V) efficiently in virtually any climate. At 160 watts of nominal maximum power, the BP 3160 is used in utility grid-supplemental systems for residences, commercial buildings, and centralized power generation and in remote systems for applications including telecommunication, pumping and irrigation, cathodic protection, remote villages and homes, and land-based navigation aids.
BP Solar’s quarter-century of field experience shows in every aspect of this module’s construction and materials:
72 multicrystalline silicon solar cells in series, efficiency enhanced by improved cell coating; Cells are laminated between sheets of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) and high-transmissivity low-iron 3mm tempered glass; Frame strength exceeds requirements of certifying agencies.
The BP 3160B features installation-speeding quick-connectors and an attractive bronze-anodized frame. These asymmetrical RHW cables enable side-by-side or end-to-end module placement in arrays.
