How To Use

Installation Guide

• STEP l Spread water on the front and back of the solar panel, and wipe with a damp cloth, the installation position on the roof also needs to be cleaned in the same way .
• STEP 2 It is recommended to use adhesive to apply a strip of at least 0.25 inches/0.6 centimeters wide every 6.5 inches/ 77 centimeters on the back of the solar panel to ensure stability and leave some space for airflow.
• STEP3 Place the solar panel in the desired position on the roof and press it firmly with foam to ensure that the adhesive is completely adhered to the roof surface.
• STEP 4 Apply adhesive to the windward edge of the panel for extra protection.
• STEP 5 Let it sit for 48 hours to ensure that the adhesive is fully in contact with the roof.

Solar Off-grid System

• First, connect the battery terminal wires to the charge controller.
• Then connect the solar panel to the charge controller.

Solar Power Station System

Compatible with various types of power stations

• As long as your cable is equipped with an MC4 connector, you can connect to our solar panels.
• Note: Connecting the power station does not need connecting with the solar charge controller.

Series Connection

• The panel can be wired in series to produce the desired voltage output.

Parallel Connection

• The solar panel can be wired in parallel to produce the desired current output with the solar parallel connector.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes the low output power or no output during the use of solar panels?

How can I solve it?

1. Light intensity: Latitude, altitude, and sun altitude angle will affect the light intensity; multiple measurement results show that high temperature does not equal strong light intensity.
2. Solar installation angle: In the same geographical location, due to the different installation inclination angles, the cumulative amount of sunlight absorbed and the cumulative difference in radiation amount causes the difference in power generation. It works best when the solar panel is roughly perpendicular to the light.
3. Solar panel surface temperature: When the solar panel surface temperature is 77° F, the output power is ideal. When the temperature is higher than 77 degrees Fahrenheit, the output power will decrease.
4. Shadow occlusion: During the working process of the solar panel, due to the partial occlusion of the shadow and the different degrees of dust settlement, the pollution of bird droppings will cause the “hot spot effect”, and the shaded part of the solar panel will not provide power contribution and will not be used in the solar panel. The interior becomes an energy-consuming load, and at the same time causes the local temperature of the solar panel to increase. The overheated area can cause the EVA to accelerate aging and turn yellow, which reduces the light transmittance of the area, further deteriorates the hot spot, and leads to aggravated failure of the solar panel. Therefore, when using it, you should avoid blocking things and clean the surface of the solar panel regularly.
5. Load factors: When charging the energy storage, it will be limited by the maximum PV input current and voltage of the energy storage. Therefore, the input power value displayed on the energy storage display does not represent the maximum output of the solar panel. Please confirm the PV input-related parameters of the energy storage before use;
   Due to the characteristics of PWM, there is a certain switching loss in the process of connecting with the solar panel, so the input power obtained by the battery will be lower than the maximum output of the solar panel.

Why the solar panel can’t provide 100% of the output energy?

1. Limited by light intensity. Please refer to Ql for more details.
2. Limited by the solar charge controller. The output conversion efficiency of the PWM controller is 75%, and the output conversion efficiency of the MPPT controller is above 90%.
3. Limited   by the power station. The PV input voltage and PV input current of the power station will limit the output of the solar panel. It’d be better to confirm the input parameters of the power station before building a solar panel system.

What should I do if the solar panel I received is damaged, missing parts, or has no output?

Please send relevant pictures to our after-sales mailbox service@bougerv.com immediately, and leave your order number. We will reply one by one according to the chronological order sent by the customers.

What kind of device can be charged by this solar panel?

1. Solar Power Station
2. Lead-acid Battery (need the solar charge controller)
3. Lithium Battery (need the solar charge controller)

• BougeRV sells different kinds of MPPT/PWM controllers, lithium iron phosphate battery, and power stations to build your solar system.

What do I need to install this solar panel?

• It can be attached to your yacht or RV using silicone adhesive or mounting tape.
