TE Connectivity has announced the SOLARLOK PV Edge decentralised junction box that can be attached to glass-to-glass photovoltaic panels without drilling holes.
It can be mounted on the edge of the PV panel without the panel manufacturer having to drill any holes or use a potting resin that can take over 6 h to cure.
The junction box has a flap design, which protects the foils while facilitating attachment to the PV panel. The flaps are available in different shoulder heights to fit panels of diverse thicknesses.
Other features include: a lid with cooling ribs to improve heat dissipation; elimination of X-connect to facilitate lay-outs; cost reduction through shorter foil lengths; shorter connections that increase efficiency and improve output; and defined bottom roughness that eliminates the need for pre-treatment of the product.
It also has a separate compartment for the diode for better heat transfer in case of shading, and an optional thermal pad to increase power handling by 2 A.
