BP 175Watt 24Volt Multicrystalline Solar Panel with MC Connectors

 

The BP 3175 is an advanced 175 watt module utilizing anti-reflective coatings on both its multicrystalline cells and glass. The module also features IntegraBusTM technology which is a printed circuit board with integrated diodes that has been designed to ensure reliability whilst conducting higher currents. The BP 3175 has been designed for grid connect solar applications, such as large commercial roofs, residential systems and photovoltaic (PV) power plants, as well as remote off-grid applications such as telecommunications, water pumping and residential systems. This 72-cell module offers superior value – greater performance from a white polyester back-sheet and innovative, high-efficiency cells.
