Offgridtec PCB-ETFE 100W 39V semi-flexible solar panel

The PCB-ETFE 100W 39V from Offgridtec (MPN 3-01-010835) belongs to the latest generation of semi-flexible solar panels. The PCB-ETFE class sets completely new standards in terms of stability and reliability thanks to the composition of the highest quality materials. While the front side is based on a Teflon derivative (PTFE), the rear side is made of fiberglass (PCB). In addition, the module works with modern 3-busbar technology. These and other quality features make the PCB-ETFE 100W from Offgridtec a universally applicable top-class product that feels just as at home on boats as it does on vehicle roofs or other surfaces and combines stability, maximum reliability and performance like no other.

Thanks to its high operating voltage of 39.6V, it is ideal for 24V systems or 12V systems (12V only in conjunction with MPPT charge controllers that can process a corresponding maximum module voltage). The PCB-ETFE 100W 39V solar cell is flexible and, compared to normal flexible solar cells, can also be carefully walked on when mounted completely flat.

Features PCB-ETFE 100W 39V solar panel

• 100W rated power, high efficiency and 3-busbar technology
• equipped with monocrystalline A-grade solar cells
• 2 bypass diodes - minimized power drop when shaded
• higher heat tolerance compared to TPT modules thanks to PCB backsheet, therefore less susceptible to blistering due to poor bonding
• can be walked on and is even more slip-resistant than comparable solar modules on the market, even when wet
• easy installation of the solar panel by gluing or using the eyelets
• unrestricted salt water suitability, universally applicable
• ETFE high-tech plastic ensures weight savings and high light transmission of max. 96%
• easy installation thanks to pre-assembled solar cable with MC4 plug and socket
• proven Offgridtec quality: made exclusively from premium raw materials of the highest quality level
• 2-year warranty - information on the warranty conditions can be found here

ETFE high-tech plastic on the front side

The front of the solar panel is covered with a high-tech plastic layer based on ethylene tetrafluoroethylene copolymer ETFE - a Teflon derivative (PTFE) - and offers excellent protection against harmful environmental influences and is also suitable for use in salt water. ETFE is lighter and at the same time more translucent than other plastic solutions on the market.

Extremely stable fiberglass (PCB) backing plate

The fiberglass backing (PCB) makes the module significantly more stable than conventional panels with a TPT backing. This structure offers you the following advantages:

• prevents bubble formation, which can occur with TPT modules due to incorrect bonding
• tolerates higher temperatures compared to the TPT structure
• reduces the risk of cell breakage due to accidental overbending of the panel by the user
