CX3-Series - CdTe Thin Film Solar Panel

Edge Sealing

 Cemented joint standard - the material combines the two glass panes interlocking and hence offers more mechanical safety and increased strengthened insulation

 edge sealing 7.5mm = larger, active cell area of 0,69m² and produce more energy

Composite Material

 using a thermoplastic film, this does not lead to outgassing of acetic acid and thus ensured that it had significantly better mechanical long-term stability of the modules

 this has been proven by increased testing conditions.

Compatibility

 same product size as common CdTe thin film solar modules

 MC Standard

Temperature Coefficient

 Calyxo modules produce at temperatures above 25°C more energy than other solar panels, because of their lower temperature coefficient.

 Compared to competitors with the same performance Calyxo solar systems produce up to 9 % more income per year.

Cell structure

 Narrower cell distances leads to a reduction of electrical losses

 positive impact in terms of the conversion of solar energy into electrical solar energy

 under mechanical stress extremely durable due to the applied solderless wiring concept that reduces the modules' internal resistance and thus permits an efficient improved yield.

Cell Properties

 The material properties of cadmium telluride is suitable due to its band gap (1,45eV) especially for the conversion of solar energy into electrical energy. The theoretical potential is approximately 29% efficiency.

 cell connection of CX3pro series is compatible with the previous CX3 series

 power and voltage range = identical

Quality

 Made and Developed in Germany

 Tested and certified by test institute VDE in stricter standard terms Full IEC 61215-1 , -2

 Perform additional stress tests at the Fraunhofer CSP

Reliability

 Tested by leading test institutes under the hardest conditions

 In addition to the ammonia test and salt spray test , the modules have to show a fire class A / B. Solar modules from other manufacturers from the crystalline part often do not reach the pass of this test because of their used EVA-foils.

Warranty

 10 years on material and workmanship

 25 years performance guarantee on:

 90% of rated power in the first 10 years

 on 80% over 25 years

CO2-Footprint

 The solar module series of Calyxo are produced with the least use of energy and the best CO2 footprint in contrast to comparable products of other manufacturers - and so ensure quality of life for generations.

 Calyxo thin film solar modules are the most eco-efficient in the entire solar industry. They produce clean energy - at the lowest cost - with the least impact on our environment.

 With the lowest CO2 footprint and the quickest energy payback time, the thin film solar modules of Calyx have a huge environmental advantage in contrast to other solar technologies.

Recycling

 We take care of a smooth and safe life cycle of our solar modules - starting with the cadmium telluride as a byproduct of zinc smelting - the finished solar module - till to recycling.

 For this, we work with established partners in order to achieve the best possible solutions.
