What is a dual-glass module?Dual-glass type modules (also called double glass or glass-glass) are made up of two glass surfaces, on the front and on the rear with a thickness of 2.0 mm each. Some manufacturers, in order to reduce the weight of the modules, have opted for a thickness of 1.6 mm. DualSun has chosen to stay with a thickness of 2.0 mm for reasons explained below.
What is a double glass module?The double glass module design offers not only much higher reliability and longer durability but also significant Balance of System cost savings by eliminating the aluminum frame of conventional modules and frame-grounding requirements. The application of double-glass modules covers multiple markets including utility, residential and commercial.
What is the thickness of a glass module?The thickness of the front glass generally used for this type of structure is 3.2 mm. Dual-glass type modules (also called double glass or glass-glass) are made up of two glass surfaces, on the front and on the rear with a thickness of 2.0 mm each.
Are double glass modules better than traditional modules?Compared to traditional modules with backsheet, modules with double glass are stronger and more durable, presenting less degradation due to thermal cycling stress. Results from the thermal cycling test up to 400 cycles show about 35% to 43% less degradation with double- glass modules than with traditional modules with backsheet (Fig. 3).
Why are double glass modules symmetrical?Mechanical constraints on cells: the fact that the structure of the double glass modules is symmetrical implies that the cells are located on a so-called neutral line, the upper part of the module being in compression during a downward mechanical load and the lower glass surface being in tension.
How much does a glass module weigh?The weight of glass-glass modules are still an issue, with current designs using 2 mm thick glass on each side for framed modules, the weight is about 22 kg, while 2.5 mm on each side will increase the module’s weight to 23 kg. Compared to traditional glass-foil modules, which are about 18 kg, this is a 20% increase in weig
