Among the newest offerings of Phono Solar, PS550M8-24 is part of the THB series. These panels use state-of-the-art technology to achieve high efficiency and dependability. The Passivated Emitter Rear Contact (PERC) technology ensures excellent power output. This solar cell type employs an additional reflective layer to absorb more sunlight.
Half-cut cell technology adds a few more percent to the overall performance, making this model a great example of efficiency. Phono Solar made solar cells in PS550M8-24 two times smaller than the standard size, thus reducing power loss and improving low-light behavior. Given its size and weight, PS550M8-24 efficiency of 21.29% is quite impressive. And while conventional panels use only one side to absorb photons, bifacial modules employ both sides at the same time. Thanks to the technology, this model can be up to 30% more efficient. Phono Solar offers 12 years of product warranty and guarantees 84.8% of original performance after 25 years of operation.

More power and efficiency
An already high efficiency of 21.29% is further enhanced by PERC technology. By adding a solid PID resistance and special glass lamination on top, the manufacturer ended up with an efficient and very durable model. Under standard test conditions, PS550M8-24 outputs 550 W of power.
Keeping the cool in high temperatures
PS550M8-24 manages to stay efficient even at high temperatures. For every 1.8°F above 77°F, it loses just -0.33% in efficiency, allowing you to make the most of the sunniest hours.
Quality and reliability
PS550M8-24 undergoes various quality checks during the production process and is subjected to serious quality and reliability testing. Manufacturing facilities are highly automated, removing the possibility of human errors. Phono Solar is committed to quality, safety, and dependability to ensure you get the finest.
Reliability and degradation resistance
Slow degradation over the next 25 years is guaranteed by Phono Solar. The performance will decrease no more than 2% during the first year and 0.25% annually thereafter. Your modules will retain at least 84.8% of original performance after the 25 years are over. This 550 W Phono Solar solar panel also comes with a generous 12-year product warranty.
Certified for the most challenging environmental conditions
PS550M8-24 is resistant to PID, salt, acid and ammonia. It can also withstand up to 5400 Pa mechanical load on the front and 2400 Pa on the back. Such robustness is mainly due to the 1.38" thick anodized aluminum alloy frame and a layer of protective glass.
