Description
When you want the best panel money can buy for a residential rooftop, the REC Alpha Pure-RX 460W is the one installers and homeowners keep coming back to — 22.1% efficiency, heterojunction cell technology, and a warranty program that actually covers labor. This pallet of 33 panels gives you 15,180W of total array capacity straight off the truck.
- 88 Half-Cut Bifacial Heterojunction Cells – REC's gapless HJT cell technology delivers industry-leading efficiency and superior low-light performance that keeps producing when conditions aren't perfect.
- 22.1% Panel Efficiency at 460W – One of the highest efficiency panels available in a residential form factor, delivering 20.5 W/ft² for maximum output on space-constrained rooftops.
- 9A Module Current – MLPE Compatible – Designed with a low 9A module current for seamless compatibility with microinverters and DC optimizers right out of the box.
- Industry-Leading Low Degradation – Annual degradation of just 0.25% with 98% power guaranteed in year one and 92% output retained through year 25.
- REC ProTrust Warranty Eligible – Qualifies for REC's 25-year product, power, and labor warranty when installed by an REC Certified Solar Professional — one of the most comprehensive warranties in the industry.
The Pure-RX is built on REC's proven Alpha platform with a full black anodized aluminum frame and black backsheet, giving it a sleek, uniform appearance that looks at home on any modern rooftop. The 0.13 in. anti-reflective solar glass and IP68-rated 4-part junction box are engineered to handle everything from salt mist to 35mm hail impacts without flinching.
With a -0.24%/K temperature coefficient — among the lowest available — this panel holds its output better in real-world heat than conventional PERC or even most TOPCon modules. That edge compounds over 25 years into meaningfully more energy delivered to your home.
Stäubli MC4 connectors, 12AWG cables, and a 1000V system voltage rating make installation straightforward on any modern residential or light commercial system. At just 50 lbs per panel, this full pallet of 33 handles cleanly on the roof without adding unnecessary weight to the structure.
