Chinese solar module maker Trina Solar has launched a new Vertex solar module. The new module is part of the Vertex TSM-DE18M.08(II) series and has a power rating of 510W. The module relies on PERC cells and has a wafer size of 210mm with an efficiency of 21.2 per cent.
Trina adds that “the latest multi-busbar technology also ensures better light trapping, lower series resistance and improved current collection resulting in more uniform loads and better performance.” the company believes that the 510W Vertex modules will be ideal for many rooftops allowing distributors and suppliers to stock one product for different projects.
The 510W module has been designed for commercial rooftop projects and comes with a 15-year product warranty and a 25-year performance warranty. According to Trina, the product withstood intense rounds of performance and quality testing exceeding the industry standard hail test (35mm) as well as snow and wind loads (6,000 Pa and 2,400 Pa, respectively). Trina launched its 635-660W Vertex series last summer and a 670W version of the Vertex panel in March.
