Mitsubishi Solar

As a general manufacturer of electrical machinery and appliances, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation offers a legacy of innovation and achievement that goes all the way back to its founding in 1921.

Since 1976, when Japan launched its first commercial satellite, Mitsubishi has participated in approximately 250 related projects around the world. One such project led to the development of a number of photovoltaic power generation systems that have proven to be extremely reliable, even in the harsh conditions of outer space.

PV-Series Modules

Mitsubishi has applied leading-edge technologies from its space-related applications to terrestrial systems to create high-performance photovoltaic power-generation systems for an astonishing range of applications. Mitsubishi Electric successfully produced the first cells in Japan that do not require solder coatings. This was a milestone in the development of environmentally friendly composite materials and manufacturing processes for the silver electrodes used on the surfaces of crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells. Their PV modules are now made using lead-free solder, completely eliminating lead from the manufacturing process.

The 175-watt and larger modules are designed for use in high-voltage grid-tie applications, but can be used in large industrial and off-grid applications for battery charging if the system includes an appropriate MPPT charge controller such as the OutBack MX-60, Apollo T80 or BlueSky Solar Boost.

These modules use 50 square poly-crystalline 156mm cells in series behind tempered
glass with anodized aluminum frames, and Multi-Contact locking connector output cables. Positive and negative cables come from junction boxes at opposite ends of the module.

The 125-watt modules have Multi-Contact locking connector output cables and are optimized for 12-volt battery charging with 36 cells in series.
The 120-watt module has 36 cells, a clear-anodized frame and a conduit-ready junction box.
