This 55W Solara marine solar panel is the first of the high-power solar panels in the range. Designed to be used alone or as part of an array of two or more solar panels, the 55W Solara is often used as the basis of more comprehensive marine solar energy systems. Alone, 55W is enough for a small range of electrical devices, such as basic lighting, two-way radios, small TVs, fish-finders, etc. As part of an array, this can be expanded to include water pumps, refrigeration and so on. All Solara Marine Solar Panels now have a 5-year warranty.
Solaramarine solar panels are uniquely designed using a Teflon coated EVA/ETFE laminate which is extremely robust, salt and acid resistant. When installed, the solar panel is less than 5mm thick (15mm at cable outlet) and the panel front has a slightly 'roughened' finish to create a slip-proof, even when wet. To allow for adjustments on slightly curved surfaces (up to 3%), Solara marine solar panels are fitted with an aluminium back-plate which also provides exceptional stability.
