Description
The SLD Tech (Solarland) ST-160Q-24CID2-QC is a 160-watt, 72-cell monocrystalline solar panel delivering 22.2% module efficiency, certified for Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations for reliable 24V DC power in industrial, oil and gas, and remote energy applications.
Key Features:
- Class I, Division 2 Certified: cULus listed and compliant with NFPA and NEC safety standards for use in environments at risk of gas explosions, with specialized design elements minimizing ignition risk in hazardous locations.
- Industry-Leading 22.2% Monocrystalline Efficiency: Advanced cell technology and manufacturing capabilities achieve the highest efficiency rating in the CID2 panel category with a 3% positive power tolerance.
- Heavy-Duty Weather-Resistant Construction: Anodized aluminum frame withstands 5,400 Pa positive load and 2,400 Pa negative load, with salt mist resistance per IEC 61701 for coastal and high-exposure installations.
- High-Transparency Tempered Glass: Low-iron tempered glass maximizes light transmission while providing outstanding protection against hail, wind pressure, and heavy snow.
- 25-Year Power Warranty: Backed by a 25-year linear power output warranty and a 10-year product workmanship warranty for reliable long-term performance assurance.
The ST-160Q-24CID2-QC is designed for nominal 24V DC output in demanding industrial environments where standard panels are not permitted. Its CID2 certification makes it the ideal solution for oil fields, refineries, chemical plants, mining operations, and other hazardous area power systems requiring dependable solar energy.
Built with 72 monocrystalline silicon cells in a 4x18 configuration, this panel is engineered for durability and reliability in volatile and hazardous conditions where both safety and efficiency are critical. The 20.71 lb design and 1.38-inch profile allow for practical installation across a wide range of fixed industrial applications.
With an operating temperature range of -40°C to 65°C and a maximum system voltage of 600V DC, the ST-160Q-24CID2-QC meets the strict rating requirements of Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D hazardous locations.
