690W Rigid Solar Narrowboat Kit 12V or 24V

This Sunshine Solar Narrowboat Kit can be used to charge and maintain 12 volt or 24 volt battery banks. To make the most of the MPPT solar charge controller included with this kit and for you to maximise the solar power generated, this kit is designed so the solar panels are linked in series increasing voltage and therefore increasing the efficiency of PV modules by 10% to 30%, in short making the most of the daylight hours.

Sunshine Solar's range of rigid solar panels are built to last with 10 Years Warranty on Materials & Workmanship and guaranteed output performance of 25 years plus this is the range to fit and forget. Whether you are on a livaboard boat or day cruising if you are looking for many years of maintenance free solar power generation the Sunshine Solar Narrowboat Kits will not disappoint.

Monitoring of the system can be made easy with the optional remote meter or via Apple & Android smartphones, tablets, macbooks and other devices, using the optional eBox-Bluetooth Adapter.

If you are a competent DIYer this kit has everything you need and also includes extra cable connectors so you can shorten the solar panels cable if needed and fit new connectors to suit your individual requirements.

The QPEAKG9345 monocrystalline solar panel 345W offers efficiency of up to 20.0 %, thanks to the latest generation of unrivalled cell concept Q.ANTUM DUO, the modules provide uniquely high yields on a small surface area. To this end, half-cells are combined with state-of-the-art circuitry and a 12-busbar design. The Q CELLS Anti LID Technology prevents light-induced degradation (LID), which can reduce system performance drastically – or almost totally. Aesthetically pleasing all black look.

KEY FEATURES:  

• Low-level cost of electricity: Higher yield per surface area, lower BOS costs, higher power classes, and an efficiency rate of up to 20.0 %. 
• Innovative all-weather technology: Optimal yields, whatever the weather with excellent low-light and temperature behaviour. 
• Enduring high performance: Long-term yield security with Anti LID Technology, Anti PID Technology 1, Hot-Spot Protect and Traceable Quality Tra.Q™. 
• Extreme weather rating: High-tech aluminium alloy frame, certified for high snow (6000Pa) and wind loads (4000Pa). 
• Reliable investment: Inclusive 25-year product warranty and 25-year linear performance warranty.

Save Money..... Don't forget you can save money on add-ons to compliment your solar kit such as the Remote Meter or Bluetooth Adapter, these help to give valuable data about the overall performance of your solar panel, also allowing you to view info on your battery state of charge and making set up and adjustments much easier. 

You may also wish to add some Bostik-360 Fixing Adhesive at a reduced price for bonding the solar mounts and cable entry cover. 

Important note:  Each solar panel needs a flat area of 1793mm x 1150mm these dimensions include the corner and side mounts supplied with the kit.
