BP Solar 275u

BP 275
75-Watt Monocrystalline Photovoltaic Module BP 275 PV modules provide cost-effective photovoltaic power for general use, operating DC loads directly or, in an inverter-equipped system, AC loads. Its features include the strongest frame in the industry, time-tested monocrystalline silicon solar cells, and a high-capacity multipurpose junction box. With 75 watts of nominal maximum power, the BP 275 is well-suited to utility grid-connected building facades and roof systems, telecommunication systems, pumping and irrigation, cathodic protection, remote villages and homes, and land-based navigation aids. Its 36 seriesconnected cells charge 12V batteries efficiently in virtually any climate. It is available as the BP 275U and 275H, with two types of junction box as described below.
Proven Materials and Construction

BP Solars quarter-century of field experience shows in every aspect of this modules construction and materials: 36 monocrystalline silicon solar cells configured as one 36-cell string (bypass diodes are included); Cells are laminated between sheets of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) and high-transmissivity low-iron 3mm tempered glass; Frame strength exceeds requirements of certifying agencies.
BP 275H output is via our Type B junction box, which is raintight (IP65 rated) and features a convenient flip screw-tight lid. It is equipped with a versatile 5-terminal Euro-style connection block with the same wiring capabilities as the Type A junction box. Two cable fittings that accept cable with a diameter between 6 -12mm are included with each BP 275H module.
Quality and Safety

Both modules are manufactured in ISO 9001-certified factories, certified by TV Rheinland as Class II equipment, and compliant with the requirements of IEC 61215, including: repetitive cycling between -40C and 85C at 85% relative humidity; simulated impact of 25mm (oneinch) hail at terminal velocity; a damp heat test, consisting of 1000 hours of exposure to 85C and 85% relative humidity; a hot-spot test, which determines a modules ability to tolerate localized shadowing (which can cause reverse-biased operation and localized heating); static loading, front and back, of 2400 pascals (50 psf); front loading (e.g. snow) of 5400 pascals (113 psf). The BP 275U and BP 275H are listed by Underwriters Laboratories for electrical and fire safety (Class C fire rating). The BP 275U is approved by Factory Mutual Research for applications in NEC Class 1, Division 2, Groups C & D hazardous locations.
Clear-Anodized Universal Frame Output Options

The BP 275 is offered with two types of junction box. BP 275U output is via our Type A junction box. This junction box is raintight (IP54 rated) and accepts PG13.5 or 1/2" nominal conduit or cable fittings. Its volume (411cc, 25 cubic inches) and 6-terminal connection block enable most system array connections (putting modules in series or parallel) to be made right in the junction box. Options include: oversize terminal block which accepts conductors up to 25mm2 (AWG #4); standard terminals accept up to 6mm2 (AWG #10); Solarstate charge regulator.

Notes
1. These data represent the performance of typical BP 270 and BP 275 modules as measured at their output terminations. The data are based on measurements made in accordance with ASTM E1036 corrected to SRC (Standard Reporting Conditions, also known as STC or Standard Test Conditions), which are: illumination of 1 kW/m2 (1 sun) at spectral distribution of AM 1.5 (ASTM E892 global spectral irradiance); cell temperature of 25C. 5.0 4.5 4.0 3.5

Current (A)
2. During the stabilization process which occurs during the first few months of deployment, module power may decrease approximately 3% from typical Pmax. 3. The cells in an illuminated module operate hotter than the ambient temperature. NOCT (Nominal Operating Cell Temperature) is an indicator of this temperature differential, and is the cell temperature under Standard Operating Conditions: ambient temperature of 20C, solar irradiation of 0.8 kW/m2, and wind speed of 1m/s. 4. The power of solar cells varies in the normal course of production; the BP 270 is assembled using cells of slightly lower power than the BP 275.
