Main features
The Suntech STP 200 solar module system has all the high efficiency conversion capabilities expected from one of the world’s leading specialists in photovoltaic technology. This polycrystalline model is built to withstand extreme changes in temperature and weather conditions, including high winds and pressure from snow. Variations in temperature are important factors for worldwide application and ever-changing climates. Solar panel installation is a long-term investment and needs to be built to last. With the Suntech STP200, there is a guaranteed power output tolerance of +/- 3% as recommended for on-grid utility systems and commercial use, as well as off-grid mounted applications. Advanced method of cell isolation and texturing allow more output and better performance in low-light conditions too.
A trusted name in solar panel technology
When it comes to safety and reliability, Suntech is renowned for its ongoing commitment to meeting the highest standards of quality control in the industry. With sales of modules reaching the 1 million mark worldwide, Suntech have encountered just about every imaginable construction challenge and constantly work with installers to improve every part of the process. Apart from the STP 200 having to meet the toughest of in-house standards, it’s also put through the rigorous testing of outside evaluators in order to meet a variety of ISO quality management systems and world class certification.
Quality versus cost
Each cell has a craquelure appearance due to being made up of a myriad of small crystals. This method of manufacturing keeps the cost down while maintaining the quality of the system to near monocrystalline standards, ideal for residential and commercial application. The transparent high transmission front of each panel is made from transparent glass, low in iron content and backed with a film that’s both weather and water resistant. Combined with an extra strong, pre-drilled, clear anodised aluminium frame gives the STP 200 maximum durability and ease of installation.
Warranty considerations
The Suntech STP 200 solar panel system comes with a high quality transferable warranty too. This covers 5 years materials and workmanship, 12 years at 90% and 25 years 80% of the minimal rated power output. This ongoing backing is especially important when considering that the best return on investment is something that increases over time. Polycrystalline based modules like the Suntech 200 have a track-record of delivering high yield over some 40 years. Solar energy is still considered a new and growing technology but the long development of polycrystalline technology and the vast experience of a company like Suntech is a combination of expertise and consistency that makes the Suntech STP 200 an excellent choice in solar PV panelling.
