About product

CS6R-400MS-HL is part of the HiKu6 Series — one of the most recent made by Canadian Solar. These panels employ cutting-edge technologies to achieve superior efficiency and reliability. This panel takes full advantage of the Passivated Emitter Rear Contact (PERC) technology that allows it to capture up to 12% more energy. All thanks to a reflective layer on the back. This design maximizes the number of photons absorbed by solar cells.

To further boost the performance, Canadian Solar employs half-cut cell technology. Each of the panel’s 108 cells is only half the size of a traditional solar cell. This grants CS6R-400MS-HL lower resistive losses and better shade tolerance. At 20. 5% efficiency, CS6R-400MS-HL offers surprising performance for its weight and size. Cell surface, back foil and frame are completely black, giving the model unrivaled aesthetics. Canadian Solar offers 12 years of product warranty and guarantees 84. 8% of original performance after 25 years of operation.

High efficiency of 20.5 percent

Canadian Solar HiKu6 panels fully use the firm's innovations, which Canadian Solar has received several distinctions for. With PERC technology, more electricity can be produced per square foot of PV modules. As a result, there will be less clamps and racks required during installation. All of which lowers your overall expenses and accelerates the payback period.

Heat-resistant performance

The heat is less of a threat with this module: with one of the lowest temperature coefficients in the industry, CS6R-400MS-HL loses just 0. 05% of efficiency for every 1. 8°F above 77°F.

High quality standards

Canadian Solar strict manufacturing standards include multiple tests to provide extreme quality assurance. The facilities are highly automated, allowing the company to maintain high standards and keep the level of warranty claims very low.

Reliability and degradation resistance

Canadian Solar guarantees slow deterioration over the next 25 years. The performance will decline by no more than 2% during the first year and then by no more than 0. 55% every year after that. After the 25 years are over, your modules will retain at least 84. 8% of their original performance. This 400 W Canadian Solar solar panel also comes with a substantial 12-year product warranty.

Enhanced frame design

This model's construction makes it perfect for both residential and business rooftops. Durability and strength are increased by using a strong, robust frame built from anodized aluminum. A significant snow load of up to 5400 Pa may be supported by the model. The panel's back can support 2400 Pa, assuring that even the strongest winds won't damage your system.

Outstanding all-black design

The panel features all-black design which looks great on any roof. The manufacturer ensures excellent cell color by special treatment and selection processes. Canadian Solar engineers use thinner wires to connect the cells together, and at a distance the surface of the modules appears smooth and uninterrupted.
