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 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.

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.

What is a glass-backsheet module?

In the case of a glass-backsheet module, not only is the upper glass layer thicker (3.2 mm versus 2.0 mm) but also this layer is fully tempered glass, whereas in the case of a thickness of 2.0 mm, the glass is only semi-tempered due to technical limitations of the tempering process.

What is solid bifacial framed glass-glass solar module?

SOLID Bifacial Framed glass-glass solar module offers enhanced structural integrity, making it perfect for carports and other robust installations. This glass-glass, transparent module with a 3.2 mm glass and framed design ensures long-lasting performance. For a seamless look, a option is available.

What is glass-glass bifacial module?

Glass-glass module assures crop protection against extreme weather conditions such as hail, heat waves, frost, and erosion. SOLID Agro has higher light transmission (40%) for crops under the module. Glass-Glass Bifacial module is more resistant to the damage from ammonia (Agri) and salt mist (coastal regions).
