KYOCERA solar modules are a
reliable, virtually maintenance-free power supply designed to convert sunlight
into electricity at the highest possible efficiency. KYOCERA began researching
photovoltaics in 1975 and has installed thousands of systems throughout the
world since 1978. These systems are ideal for charging storage batteries to
power remote homes, recreational vehicles, boats, telecommunications systems and
other consumer and commercial applications.
KYOCERA's advanced cell-processing technology and automated production
facilities produce highly efficient multi-crystal photovoltaic modules. To
protect the cells from the most severe environmental conditions, they are
encapsulated between a tempered glass cover and an EVA pottant with a PVF back
sheet. The entire laminate is installed in an anodized aluminum frame for
structural strength and ease of installation.
d.Blue Module
KYOCERA has perfected its
new surface treatment technology and is introducing it on a new line of modules
named d.Blue, for its dark blue color.
The newly developed treatment method processes multi-crystalline silicon
cells in order to produce a surface texture that minimizes surface reflectance
and maximizes output. The result is a conversion efficiency of over 15 %, one of
the highest conversion efficiencies in the polycrystalline module industry.
Because Kyocera modules are so efficient less space is required than other solar
modules of equal output. This translates to both more wattage per square foot
and lower mounting structure cost.
d.Blue is ideal for installation on
all types of buildings, from residential to large scale commercial systems. The
stylish dark blue cells, combined with black module frames, allow the modules to
blend in with the buildings architecture while producing energy at exceptional
efficiencies.
The d.Blue modules are currently available in 40 - 125 watt
panels. They all feature a junction box, a heavy-duty box-style anodized
aluminum frame; and an industry high 25-year power output warranty.
