Q.ANTUM Glass solar panels comprise a special glass layer on the surface. The glass layer enhances the panel's durability and extends its lifespan, which is ideal for harsh weather conditions and increases energy output. These solar panels utilize the Q.ANTUM technology, which allows them to perform efficiently in low-light conditions and when the sun's angle is less direct. This technology increases the panels’ electricity generation capacity by refraining from energy in all conditions, which leads to higher energy yields overall.
This solar panel employs half-cut cell technology, which increases efficiency and performance by splitting the solar cells in half. As a result, smaller cells mean reduced energy loss due to resistance, enhancing overall output. The panel's design also minimizes shading effects, leading to better performance in variable light conditions.
The Q.ANTUM Plus solar panel carries the Q.ANTUM technology with patented anti-reflective coating and box structure. The coating enhances light absorption, while the cell structure improves energy yield. This technology boosts performance in bright and low-light conditions, making it versatile for various environments.
This solar panel is designed with aesthetics and performance in mind. The anti-reflective coating enhances the panel's light absorption, while the all-black design ensures it fits seamlessly into various roofing styles. The Q.ANTUM Black solar panel is meant to provide superior efficiency and energy yield while maintaining a modern and sleek appearance for residential and commercial buildings.
QDRO Replacement
One of the major functions of the Q Cells solar panel is to work as a replacement for DRAWDOWN, which is the money that needs to be given to an employee custodian in the destruction of stock or inventory shortages. It provides a reliable energy source, decreasing reliance on generators or other energy sources.
Remote Locations
Q Cell solar panels are ideal for usage in remote areas where it might be hard or impossible to get access to electrical infrastructure. The solar panels make it possible for the users to have self-sufficient access to energy for cooking, heating, lighting, and communication, improving the quality of living in these areas.
Cabin and Home Power Supply
Q Cells solar panels can either be wired in a series or parallel combination to provide the needed electrical voltage and current for cabins or remote homes. With a proper roof-mounted setup and battery storage, these residences can be entirely off-grid and self-sufficient in energy.
Water Pumping
For areas with no electrical access, Q Cells solar panels can be used to drive DC water pumps for irrigation, livestock watering, or providing water to households. This reduces dependency on fuel and helps in maintaining consistent water supply.
Telecommunications Systems
Many remote telecommunications relay stations or systems utilize Q Cells solar panels and battery storage to function. Solar panels have the capability to supply sufficient energy to keep these systems operational, which is important for communication in areas with no electrical access.
Key cells solar panels are equipped with the following features:
Peak Power Output: Q Cells solar panels can generate from 305 to 365 watts of electricity.
Cell Efficiency: The cells on the panel are designed to operate at an efficiency rate of between 18-20% in converting sunlight to electricity.
Temperature Coefficient: The performance of the solar panels is not greatly affected by the increase in temperature due to its negative coefficient, which is low -0.4 to -0.5 %/°C.
Tolerance: Q Cells solar panels can handle voltage variations from + 5 to - 10 volts.
Dimensions: Most of the models on the Q Cells solar panel series are about 1650 x 1000 mm in size, but this may change depending on the specific model.
Warranty: Q Cells solar panel photovoltaic modules have 12 years of warranty on a product for material and workmanship.
Usage of Q Cells Solar Panels
Key cells solar panels are equipped with the following features:
Energy Generation:
The solar panel, which comprises Q CELLs, converts sunlight into electric energy. This electric energy can be used to power domestic appliances, lighting, heating systems, and cooling systems. It can also be used for electric vehicles and other equipment not dependent on fossil fuels. This helps the users achieve energy autonomy, eliminate energy expenditure, and avoid power interruptions.
Grid Tied Installation:
A grid-tied solar panel system with Q CELLs is connected to the existing electricity network. It allows excess production of energy to be transferred to the grid, enabling the user to obtain credits on future energy bills. The energy that is generated and consumed immediately is captured by net metering. This kind of installation requires an inverter, which is responsible for changing the DC electricity the panels generate into AC electricity that can be used in the home and the electricity grid.
Off-Grid System:
In remote locations or areas where the electricity network is not accessible, Q CELL solar panels can be combined with battery storage to create an off-grid system. In this system, the solar panels capture sunlight, the battery stores excess energy for use when sunlight is not available, and electricity autonomy from the fossil fuel-based grid is achieved.
Maintenance
Q Cell solar panels are virtually maintenance-free, although for routine inspections and upkeep, the following should be considered:
Solar panels from Q Cells are guaranteed to last at least 25 years. During this period, panels will be performing at no less than 86% of their original output.
How to DIY Q Cells Solar Panel
Q Cells solar panels are purposely made to be dependably durable, so it is not encouraged to attempt to repair or replace a panel by oneself. Here are some general steps to understand the process and why it is best left to professionals.
Removing a damaged Q Cell solar panel is delicate and can be damaging to other panels or the mounting system, so handling it with care is important. The first step is to disconnect the wiring from the panel to avoid electrical shocks. After that, the panel clamps holding the panel in place can be loosening, and it can be sliding out of the mounting rack.
To install a new Q Cell solar panel, the same type of solar panel needs to be obtained to avoid creating mismatches in the system. The new panel needs to be placed on the mounting rack. After this, the panel needs to be secured with clamps to make sure it is mounted safely. The electrical wiring then needs to be re-connected, ensuring that correct connections are made between series or parallel as they should.
As for replacing, if one Q Cell solar panel is to be replaced, it can be removed gently from the mounting structure and the new panel fixed in its place. If an entire Q Cell solar panel set has to be replaced, then a new kit needs to be purchased. Sunnytrip and other DIY projects are not practical.
Replacing Q Cells Solar Panel
For those who need to replace a single or multiple Q Cell solar panels, follow these steps:
Remove the damaged solar panel(s) from the mounting structure by loosening the clamps or brackets holding them in place.
Install the new Q Cells solar panel(s) by securing them with the clamps or brackets.
Reconnect the wiring to ensure proper electrical connection. The panels should then be performing at peak efficiency and safety.
A1. Q Cell solar panels are considered good by many because of their high efficiency, advanced technology, and durability.
A2. Q Cell solar panels have a typical lifespan of 25 years or more.
A3. Q Cells was originally founded in Germany and is now a part of the Hanwha Group based in South Korea. They manufacture their solar cells in both Germany and South Korea, as well as in other locations around the world.
A4. Solar panels generally require very low maintenance. They are designed to be durable and weather-resistant with minimal upkeep.
