Product Line Up
|
Sunmodule
With the Sunmodule Plus, SolarWorld AG presents an
innovative module concept. The Sunmodule Plus is produced in
state-of-the-art, fully automated production facilities, meeting the highest
possible quality standards.
Our Sunmodule Plus modules guarantee consistent output and set themselves
apart with their outstanding product features. The SolarWorld modules Plus
sort system is unique. The performance of every individual module is
determined with oversized "flashers". The modules are then sorted in 5-watt
steps, making the time-consuming process of sorting the modules on-site
unnecessary. Only those modules that have been "flashed" with the specified
amount of rated power (or more) are supplied to customers.
Highest quality in all production phases
We produce all of the intermediate and end products inside the group at our
locations in Germany and the USA, starting with sand all the way to
recycling of old cells and modules.

Sunmodule Plus – For extra performance and reliability
Top quality in 6" cell technology: The Sunmodule Plus
and the new Sunmodule Plus black, with homogenous black surface, are
perfectly suited for use in a wide variety of applications. Whether for a
pitched or flat roof, for ground-mounted installation or on the SunCarport –
an extensive range of SolarWorld products is available for planning and
design.
Design and load capacity
The cells of the Sunmodules are situated behind a protective glazing made of
hardened glass and are embedded in transparent EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate).
The rear of the modules is sealed with a high-grade laminate. The module frame and the enclosed glass are securely attached to one another
by universally applied silicon. This guarantees above-average module
stability that prevents e.g. the frame from coming loose as a result of
sliding snow.
The load capacity of the front of the unit of up to 5.4 kN/m2, which meets
the IEC 61215 standard, confirms the suitability of the module to withstand
large build-ups of snow and ice.

Suntub®

The ideal solution for flat roofs
With the Suntub mounting system, SolarWorld introduces the optimum
solution for installation of photovoltaic modules on flat roofs. The
Suntub is assembled on the flat roof and does not require any
penetration of the delicate roof membranes or floor covering.
The ideally curved form of the Suntub also creates additional free
space, allowing for optimum rear ventilation of the photovoltaic
modules. This assures ongoing performance and efficiency of the
photovoltaic modules.
Minimum load
The aerodynamic design reduces the flat roof system’s superimposed load
to a minimum. For it to be able to withstand various different wind
loads (wind load zones 1-4), the Suntub can be weighted down with
pavement slabs and gravel. Alternately, the system’s stability can also
be assured by connecting several Suntub mounting systems to one another.
The ideally synchronized SolarWorld AG components facilitate and shorten
the assembly process, making installation not only professional but also
straightforward.
Suntub: 100% environmentally friendly
As a company dedicated to the principle of sustainability, SolarWorld AG
even goes as far as to assure that the materials they use are very
environmentally friendly. The Suntub mounting system is made of HDPE
recycling material and is, as a result, 100% environmentally friendly.

Suntrac®

The innovative tracking system for ground-mounted
installation
SolarWorld presents Suntrac, its innovative tracking system for
ground-mounted installation. Suntrac, which can be equipped with 32 or
48 SolarWorld Sunmodule Plus modules, brings together innovative sensor
control technology and astronomic timing.
Following the sun
Solar power systems generate the highest possible output when they are
positioned at a right angle to the sun. Factors that play a major role
here are the position in relation to the sun and other environmental
conditions. Since the sun’s position not only changes consistently
throughout the day but also throughout the year and because other
environmental conditions are also subject to temporary fluctuations,
solar power systems set up in fixed locations are only able to
capitalize one part of their potential.
The intelligent solution for maximum output
Suntrac follows the sun’s course and always finds the optimum angle to
the sun to generate the maximum amount of energy. As a result of its
astronomical tracking ability with optional support from sensors, the
angle at which the sunlight strikes the modules remains constant
throughout the day. However, SolarWorld’s Suntrac not only makes use of
each hour of direct sunlight, it also uses diffused light – all year
long. This way, photovoltaic modules are able to generate the maximum
output any time of day, increasing output by up to 35 percent over solar
power systems in fixed locations. This surplus makes the units much more
cost efficient and leads to a quicker amortization of any investment.

Sunfix® aero
Sunfix aero - The low-ballast flat roof system
The Sunfix®aero flat roof system from SolarWorld is the perfect system for
installing your SolarWorld solar power modules on flat roofs without the
need for any penetration through the roof. The easy-to-install system with
an angle of inclination of 15° or 25° is ideal for use on roofs with minimal
load reserves and reduces point and distributed loads. With its aerodynamic
design, the aluminum, stainless steel and galvanized steel mounting system
produces an additional applied load of approx. 10 kg/m² onto the roof plus
the ballast needed (depending on the location).

SunPac
The intelligent storage system
Consume, store or feed into the grid: the new battery system from SolarWorld
enables you to have solar power anytime. This increases your
self-consumption and reduces your electricity bills. A meter measures the
electricity flowing between the grid and your home. If more electricity is
generated than is being used, the system charges the battery. When more
power is needed, the battery feeds additional energy into the home’s
electrical system.
In poor weather, at night or if there are power outages, the battery system
in combination with the special Sunny Backup charge controller switches to
battery operation and closes the supply gap. Both new and existing
SolarWorld solar power systems can be easily expanded with the battery
system. You can monitor your solar power consumption and production using
the Suntrol® display softwarefrom you computer, iPad or the iPod Touch from
SolarWorld.
