Our colored photovoltaic modules with wood image patterns are ideal for any type of application that uses the photoelectric effect as a source of clean energy, due to its minimal chemical pollution and no noise pollution.

 

Thanks to their design, they can be easily integrated architecturally into any type of installation.

 

The front part of our photovoltaic solar modules contains a tempered solar glass with a high level of transmissivity, low reflectivity and low iron content.

 

These photovoltaic modules colored with patterns of images of wood use high-efficiency crystalline silicon cells to transform the energy of solar radiation into direct current electrical energy. Each cell is electrically rated to optimize module performance.

 

The circuit of cells is laminated between two sheets of Polyvinyl Butyral (PVB) that has anti-aging properties, as an encapsulant for protection against humidity, stability against ultraviolet rays (UV) and electrical insulation.

 

The back of the photovoltaic solar modules contains a tempered glass with low iron content.

 

The IP67 junction box is made of high temperature resistant plastics and contains terminals, connection terminals and by-pass diodes. These modules are supplied with cables that are symmetrical in length, with a copper section diameter of 4 mm and very low contact resistance, designed to achieve minimum losses due to voltage drop.

 

Our colored photovoltaic solar modules with wood image patterns meet all safety requirements, both in terms of flexibility, double insulation, and high resistance to UV rays, which is why they are ideal for use in outdoor applications.

 Formats

Solar Innova modules are made to measure according to individual customer specifications, with a custom design both in terms of shape, color and visual layout.

 

Solar Innova provides a wide range of shapes: rectangular, square, round, triangular, trapezoidal or any other.

 

Besides having a wide range of common formats can make special formats, allowing the realization of buildings with very sophisticated design.

 

The standard composition of the photovoltaic module is:

  • Front: extra-white glass tempered safety glass with polished edge

  • Encapsulant: PVB

  • PV Cells

  • Rear: colorless tempered safety glass with polished edge

 

These PV modules are suitable for installation in any conventional facade system, thus fixing the four sides as buttoned punctual fixation systems.

 

Possible finishes modules are also multiple:

  • Serigraph as architectural design on back, front or both glass.

  • Different sizes of front and rear glass as architectural specifications.

  • Transparency of the module according to degree of sun protection and light transmission required. You can play with the distance between cells and the type of finish or back glass.

  • Background colored module, matte or simile acid, etc. Encapsulant (PVB) of translucent color and with vitreous enamel rather dull can you get different effects in the background of the module.

  • Different cells, poly or mono-crystalline or semi-perforated cells offer interesting architectural design options.

  • Design as glass chamber for better thermal performance.

  • Design with the possibility of acoustic insulation.

  • Design to improve performance in areas of heavy weather.

 Materials

Solar Innova uses the latest materials to manufacture photovoltaic modules:

 

Front Glass

The front of the module contains a tempered solar glass with high transparency with high transmissivity, low reflectivity and low iron content.

 

The glass forms the front end of photovoltaic module and protects components housed within the laminate from the weather and mechanical stresses.

 

At the same time serves as carrier material in the lamination process.

 

A high transmittance increases the efficiency of the photovoltaic cells and thus has a direct influence on the potency and performance of the final module. A low iron content in the glass composition and an antireflection coating to reduce absorption of radiant energy.

 

The glass of the modules Solar Innova achieve excellent resistance against mechanical stress and temperature changes due to the preload of the manufacturer.

 

Laminated Glass

Laminate/baking glass baking is a type of safety glass that holds together when it breaks so is normally used when there is a possibility of human impact or where the glass could fall shattered. In the case of breakage, it is held in place by an intermediate layer, PVB (Polyvinyl Butyral), between two or more layers of glass. The intermediate layer holds the glass layers bonded even when broken, high strength and prevents the glass breaks into large sharp pieces. This produces a "spider web" cracking pattern feature when the impact is not enough to completely pierce the glass.

 

Skylights glass and car windshields typically use this type of laminate/baking glass. In geographical areas requiring building resistant to hurricanes, it is often used this type of laminate / glass baking in the exterior windows, curtain walls and windows. The intermediate layer of PVB (Polyvinyl Butyral) also gives the glass a much higher classification as regards sound insulation due to the damping effect, and also blocks 99% of incoming UV radiation.

 

The thickness of the integrated crystals depend on the type of construction, as well as legislation to comply in the implantation site.

 

The glass thickness can be chosen in the range of 2 to 10 mm.

Top Encapsulant

PVB (Polyvinyl Butyral)

The sheets of PVB (Polyvinyl Butyral) are used to connect the solar cells through the lamination process with glass surface. This step provides the "encapsulated" solar module that is responsible for holding together the photovoltaic module and have a decisive bearing on life. The degree of chained PVB sheet after the lamination process is decisive for the quality indicator of the solar module.

 

An PVB sheet must guarantee insulation and protective effect throughout the life of the module. The films of poor quality can cause long-term discoloration, delamination or decomposition and, therefore, strongly impair the performance capability of the module in question. Solar Innova uses only high quality sheet of chains with a degree exceeding 85%, thus providing long lasting protection of cells.

 

The PVB used as encapsulant meets the highest security requirements against breakage resistance offering a break of more than 20 N/mm2.

Ribbon

Welding ribbon is specially designed for manufacturing solar panels product. It is used for electrical connections between solar photovoltaics.

 

It is made with a flat copper tape, coated with a thin layer of tin (414-600 microinches) on all sides. Tin copper confers protection against oxidation and provides a layer for easy welding.

 

The welding of the cells is performed by a combination of heat and pressure welding the longitudinal straps. The tape reaches the factory coils are placed in the automatic welding machines.

 

The solder coating on the ribbon interconnect provides 100% of that needed to form a reliable metallurgical bond at the top of the welding cells.

Cells

The final appearance of the module is directly related to the cells used for realization. The wide range of colors and shapes of the cells allows great freedom for architects in the individual design of the building.

 

The Solar Innova module will meet the functional and aesthetic goals made by a conventional glazing as they require no maintenance.

 

To individualize the most of every building, Solar Innova has the widest range of cells with different structures, sizes, colors and efficiencies.

 

The selection and distribution of photovoltaic cells is flexible and is made according to customer order. They are custom made according to customer order and adaptable to a wide range of design specifications.

 

The design of the electrical characteristics of the module is made according to customer specifications. These characteristics depend basically on the type of photovoltaic cells available, quantity, distribution and interconnection.

Float Glass

Float glass is a sheet of glass made by floating molten glass on a bed of molten metal, typically tin, although lead and various low melting point alloys were used in the past. This method gives the sheet uniform thickness and very flat surfaces.

 

It is transparent and offers a high visible light transmission and low UV radiation.

Tempered safety glass ESG with low-emissivity coating

The prestressing hot ESG tempered glass has a high mechanical strength, which property is obtained by heat treatment of the manufacturing process.

 

In case of breaking the glass fragments into lots of small pieces without sharp edges.

Low emissivity layer

Is a layer of particles sprayed with oxides and noble metals, especially silver, on one side of the glass that gives this special maintaining its reflective properties colorless.

 

Low emissivity glasses should always be used in Insulating Glass Unit (UVA) and treated her face in contact with air it oxidizes rapidly, deteriorating it both physical and aesthetic properties.

 

This low emissivity coating allows much solar shortwave radiation from the sun passes through the glass while reflecting most of the longwave radiation they produce, among other sources, heating systems, retaining this so the heat inside environments.

 

It is recommended for cold areas where it is necessary to maximize the heat generated inside and outside which comes from the sun and make maximum use of natural light.

 

One of its main applications is where glaze housing, in most cases, colorless transparent glazes used. When used in Insulated Glass units made of an outer solar control glass, colored or reflective also improves performance solar control by approximately 15%.

 

  • The value of heat transfer for units with an air chamber 12 mm wide, with normal glass, is K=2.8 W/m2K and Low E Glass K=1.8 W/m2K.

  • It is used exclusively as an interior glass Insulating Glass units, improving by 35% its thermal insulation.

  • Also helps to reduce the burden, solar radiation enters through the Insulating Glass.

  • In case of low emissivity glass is tempered, has the same features as the tempered glass without treating low emissivity affecting their properties.

  • In case of low emissivity glass is laminated, has the same characteristics as the glass laminate without treating low emissivity affecting their properties.

 

According insulation needs two types of low-emissivity glass:

  • In cold areas, the treated glass is placed into the building with special face to the air chamber Double Glazing. Thus, radiation of long wavelength (from heating, for example) reflected in the glazing, returning inward and reducing energy losses. The following table can be seen as the "U" value considerably improved over conventional glazing.

  • In warm areas, the treated glass is situated towards the outside of the building, with the treated side facing the air chamber Double Glazing. In this way it is possible to reduce transmission energy from the sun (heat) into the room, reducing the cost of air conditioning, climate, etc.

Insulation-Camera/s Air/Argon Gas (optional)

It provides thermal comfort by eliminating the effect of "cold wall" in the areas near the glazing and provides a reduction of condensation on the inside glass.

 

The separation between glass is defined by a spacer profile inside which a molecular sieve desiccant called stays. The tightness is guaranteed by a double perimeter barrier with organic sealants. The first seal is made with butyl on the aluminum profile, before assembly of the glass. The second and final is performed with polysulfide, once assembled glasses on the spacer profile.

 

By filling the chamber with an inert gas in the insulating glass is to optimize product features compared to the standard system with an air chamber getting so:

  • Better thermal insulation, the gases used have lower thermal conductivity than air.

  • A better sound insulation, as by the appropriate choice of the quantity and quality of the gaseous mixture with a suitable mounting system, the attainable improvement in sound insulation is about 3 dB.

  • A protection for the metallic layer of energy windows, and the fill, unlike air, is made with chemically pure gases or gas mixtures, in addition to a protective function metal layers coated glass.

 

Argon gas filling in the insulating glass meets the following criteria:

  • It is colorless, non-toxic and remain unchanged in the temperature range which is under the glazing.

  • Presents stability and chemical compatibility with the various components of insulating glass, due to the different fields of application of insulating glazing. Argon (noble gas) fulfills this function with a protective effect. Also, in order to prevent reactions with the spacer profiles, the desiccant material or sealants.

  • Presents adequate diffusion rate as the permeability of the system depends mainly on two factors: the diffusion rate of the sealant and gas solubility in organic compounds.

Junction Box

Electrical connections can be via the junction box rear or side connectors. In all cases the diodes required will be incorporated to protect the cells from overheating. These diodes, in principle, will be placed inside the laminate in order to gain flexibility in the location of the outer terminals designed to be placed in any profiles of conventional structural systems.

 

The junction box must have features of anti-aging and UV-resistance and have electrical resistance up to 1,000 V. It must satisfy with IP65 protection, the working temperature should be -40 to +85º C.

 

According to the module power status and requests for project design and aesthetic requirements, you can install different models of junction boxes.

 

If installed with frame exposed or semi-exposed frame, junction box be installed at the edge of the module.

 

If this is a concealed box can be installed in the back of the module is required.

Diodes

The shading of a cell can cause a reverse voltage on it. This cell thus consume power generated by the other in series, resulting in undesirable heating of the shaded cell. This effect, called hot spot will be greater the higher the radiation incident on the rest of the smaller cells and cell receiving that due to the shadow. In an extreme case the cell may be broken due to overheating.

 

The use of protective diodes or by-pass reduces the risk of heating of the shaded cells, limiting the current that can flow through them and thus preventing the breakage thereof.

 

All modules with a number of cells greater than or equal to 33 connected in series, manufactured by Solar Innova, are provided with protection diodes that are located at the junction boxes. In modules with fewer cells in series are not required the bypass diodes, as the hot spot effect does not reach the level of risk of rupture of the cells.

 

The replacement of bypass diodes should be performed only by a qualified competent photovoltaic after disconnecting the system module.

Cables

Our modules are fitted with flexible cables, symmetrical in length, with a diameter of copper section of 4 mm, weather resistant and have been specially designed and certified for use in our modules. Have high values ​​of electrical safety and fire resistance. Its insulation to weathering and UV rays ensures longevity of the installation. Furthermore, the wide range of temperature allows its application even in extreme climatic areas, preventing heat aging and therefore allowing a long life in the photovoltaic system. They have a high strength and a very low contact resistance, all designed to obtain minimum voltage drop losses and allows them to continue operating even in unfavorable conditions.

 

All our photovoltaic modules are supplied with cable assemblies in the box with the following features:

Sealed

PV modules require the use of silicone sealant high quality for bonding and sealing around panel and junction boxes of photovoltaic modules.

 

Silicone has excellent adhesion to most substrates used in the manufacture of photovoltaic modules and does not lose its flexibility in a wide temperature range so it offers perfect protection against the ingress of water into the laminate.

 

Fabricated with high efficiency. No chemical reactions with PVB material ensures the chemical stability.

 

The silicone is applied in the grooves of the frame and the edge of the laminate so as to prevent any infiltration of gas or liquid that can erode the module. At the same time, elasticity serves as a protection against possible mechanical impacts during installation or handling.

Labels

This document describes data sheet and nameplate information for non-concentrating photovoltaic modules. The intent of this document is to provide minimum information required to configure a safe and optimal system with photovoltaic modules. In this context, data sheet information is a technical description separate from the photovoltaic module. The nameplate is a sign in durable construction at or in the photovoltaic module.

 

This document is used for identification and traceability at each stage of the production process as part of quality control.

 Production

Each photovoltaic module consists of a set of electrically interconnected solar cells, encapsulated together with other materials that make the whole resistant to atmospheric conditions, with a robust design and easy to install. The following briefly summarizes the main stages of the manufacturing process:

 

1.- Cell Sorting

All photovoltaic cells undergo classification and grouping based on their intrinsic characteristics: color, size, performance, etc.

2.- Welding Cells

Once cells sorted and grouped according to their performance characteristics and voltage are welded the electrical terminals of each of the cells.

3.- Interconnection Cells

The welding of the cells is one of the essential steps of the manufacturing process of a solar module.

 

Solder the solar cells into strings of cells (strings) is made by connecting the front of a cell with the back of the next cell by metal strips that collect and conduct the electricity through the string or chain of photovoltaic cells.

 

The cell welding machines to weld Solar Innova cells and different types of dimensions (height, thickness, number of bus bars, monocrystalline or polycrystalline silicon).

4.- Layout

In front tempered glass is placed avoiding the deterioration of the photoelectric cells.

 

Then place the protective sheet of PVB with which encapsulate the front of the cells.

 

Then proceeds to place strings sequentially all leaving the same space between each of them. Once all the strings they will be welded together.

 

Then placed next PVB protective sheet with which encapsulate the back of cells.

 

In back tempered glass is placed avoiding the deterioration of the photoelectric cells.

5.- Visual Inspection

The sandwich is subjected to a severe visual inspection for any fault prior to lamination.

6.- Lamination/Baked

The process consists of two phases: in the first phase the sandwich is introduced in a laminator at a temperature between +145º C and +155º C, with a pressure between 10.5-11.5 bar, for 70 minutes and later in a second stage the laminate is introduced in an autoclave (hot oven), sealed at a temperature between +145º C and + 155º C, with a pressure between 10.5-11.5 bar, for 4 hours, to form a compact unit and weather resistant, with the aim of sealing the different layers of the module by combining pressure and temperature, to protect the solar cells from the meteorological inclemencies during the lifetime of the photovoltaic module.

 

Once the sandwich is laminated and baked, the sandwich is allowed to cool to room temperature, then cut the leftover material (PVB) at the edges of the glass.

7.- ELCD Test-1

All our laminates are subjected to a test to see if there electroluminescence breaks in cells or chains.

8.- Mounting Junction Box

We proceed to place a silicone seal around the junction box, then proceed to the installation of the junction box with diodes, cables and connectors.

9.- Cleaning

All modules are subject to a thorough clean to prevent dirt from sticking together.

10.- Isolation Dielectric Test

All our modules undergo a series of tests of high voltage insulation.

11.- Flash Test

The test flash equipment is an essential quality control in a production line of solar modules.

All our modules are introduced into a solar simulator to test them through a voltmeter is found that the current-voltage curve is the correct module.

 

The flash test is a test to measure the output performance of a solar PV module and is a standard procedure at manufacturer’s to ensure the operability of each module. During a flash test the PV module is exposed to a short (1 ms to 30 ms), bright (100 mW per sq. cm) flash of light from a xenon filled arc lamp. The output spectrum of this lamp is as close to the spectrum of the sun as possible.

 

In order to ensure accuracy of measurement , we use a plane positioning module and perfectly oriented to flash illumination is uniform over the entire surface of the module.

 

The output is collected by a computer and the data is compared to a reference solar module. The reference data is geared to the power output calibrated to standard solar irradiation.

 

The results of the flash test are compared to the specifications of the PV modules datasheets and the data incorporated into flash reports and printed on the label on the module’s back.

 

These tests are performed to ensure the insulation between the strings or strings and the module frame.

12.- Labeling

Once the measurements taken each module will be labeled on the back with a clearly visible and indelible sticker where the data of the manufacturer, model and technical details of each module are reflected, all in accordance with the EN 50380:2003, information from the data sheets and nameplates for photovoltaic modules.

 

The modules are labeled on the rear part with a barcode containing a serial number traceable to the date of manufacture for identification.

 

13.- ELCD Test-2

All our modules are subjected to a test to see if there electroluminescence breaks in cells or chains.

14.- Packaging

Finally PV modules will be packaged so that no forces act that can cause breakage in its components.

Linear mounting systems

Mullion-transom façades

Mullion-transom constructions consists of vertical mullions and horizontal transoms. The mullions transfer the main loads and the transoms act as horizontal bracing. The solar modules are set in this framework structure as fill elements. Clamping rails are fitted from the outside as linear fixings for the modules.

 

The circumferential profiles, however, can shade the solar modules and also result in the accumulation of dirt and snow. The module design should be adapted to take this shading into account. The costs for maintenance and cleaning should also be taken into account, if applicable, particularly for roofing applications.

 

The dimensions of the façade grid vary from project to project and customized solar modules are usually required.

 

Mullion-and-transom façades count as “warm” or thermally insulating façades. Consequently, not only must the profiles be thermally separated, but the U values of the fill elements must be correspondingly low. For this reason, PV modules are often integrated in a thermal insulation glazing structure.

Structural sealant glazing (SSG)

With structural sealant glazing façades, the solar modules are fixed in place on a metal frame by means of circumferential load-transferring bonds. This produces façades with a homogeneous and smooth appearance. Furthermore, SSG façades have no external protruding parts, which means that shading and dirt traps are avoided.

 

 

 

Point-fixing systems

Particularly delicate designs can be achieved using point-fixed façade systems. Typical point-fixing systems are clamp fixings, drilled glass panes with drilled spot fixing, and undercut anchor fixing systems.

 

Although point-fixing systems cause hardly any shading in comparison to frame systems and are less prone to accumulating dirt, they can only be used with a few types of solar module.

 

Since holes drilled in glass must maintain a minimum offset from the edge of the pane and since drilled spot fixing always shade part of the module, the only solar modules that can be used here are those that allow cut-outs to be made in these areas in the module design and permit drilled panes to be used independently of the cell production.

 

Drilled spot systems

Drilled spot fixing are construction components that are used for point-fixing glass panes. They comprise two metal discs and a bolt that is inserted through a drilled cylindrical hole in the glass pane to connect the two discs. These circular pads must measure at least 50 mm in diameter and be offset from the edge of the glass by 12 mm.

Clamp fixing

Clamp fixings are U-shaped brackets that fit around the edge of glass panes and dispense with the need to drill holes in the glass. The fixings must overlap the glass by at least 25 mm and the clamped area must be greater than 1000 mm2.

Undercut anchor fixings

Undercut anchor fixings are mechanical point-fixings that remain invisible, since the glass is not drilled right through. This allows more efficient use of the PV surface area. These fixings generate higher stresses due the reduced contact area of their cylindro-conical drilled holes, which means that tempered or laminated safety glass must be used.

Importance of Ensuring Adequate Power

Solar Innova offers great advantages with its linear power warranty. Other power guarantees are reduced in stages over the time periods established. These guarantees remain staggered continuous from beginning to end in the same period. Considering the drastic reduction in the coverage of the guarantee to pass a temporary step to another, there is the possibility that the module power drops sharply at the beginning of the period, without being able to claim the manufacturer. To prevent unexpected power loss out of warranty, it is best to have a potency guarantee is reduced linearly over the lifetime of the module.

Power Tolerance

The power tolerance of a photovoltaic module indicates the range within which the power of a module can deviate from its rated power. The lower the negative tolerance, the greater the power output of the module.

Power Degradation

All solar photovoltaic modules suffer a degradation of power throughout its years of operation. Both qualities of silicon as the other ingredients used in their production influence the level of degradation. Therefore, the higher the quality of the components of the module, the lower the degree that is affected by this degradation.
