About product

SolarWorld Sunmodule Plus SW 285 Mono is a versatile 60-cell PV module designed for both residential and commercial installations. SolarWorld’s fully-automated production and rigorous in-house testing result in panels that combine durability with dependable energy output. Anti-reflective (ARC) glass boosts light capture, while SolarWorld’s “Plus-Sorting” program ensures every shipped module meets or exceeds its nameplate 285 W power. A slim 1.3" (33 mm) clear-anodized aluminum frame complements nearly any mounting style without sacrificing strength. SolarWorld backs the panel with a 10-year product warranty and a 25-year linear power guarantee, assuring no more than 0.7 % power loss per year—at least 82.5 % of original output after 25 years.

  • 60 monocrystalline cells
  • 285 W nameplate capacity
  • 17.0 % efficiency
  • 1,000 V DC maximum system voltage
  • H4 compatible connectors
  • 10-year product and 25-year performance warranty

More power and efficiency

Under standard test conditions (STC), the SW 285 delivers its full 285 W output with 17 % module efficiency. Anti-reflective glass and positive-tolerance “Plus-Sorting” (-0/ 5 W) further ensure you receive extra watts right out of the box.

Keeping cool in high temperatures

The module’s temperature coefficient of −0.41 % / °C for Pmpp means power drops only about 0.41 % for every 1.8 °F above 77 °F, so you keep harvesting energy even during summer peaks.

High quality standards

Every component is tested to meet IEC requirements three times over, and the module is certified against salt-mist, ammonia, blowing-sand and snow-load stress. TÜV “Power Controlled” certification guarantees industry-leading measurement accuracy.

Reliability and degradation resistance

SolarWorld guarantees no more than 0.7 % annual power degradation, ensuring at least 82.5 % of original performance after 25 years, backed by a 10-year workmanship warranty.

Enhanced frame design

The 1.3" frame supports heavy snow loads up to 113 psf (≈ 5,400 Pa) and wind loads up to 64 psf (≈ 3,100 Pa) on a two-rail mount, with even higher ratings on three-rail systems. Robust clear-anodized aluminum resists corrosion for decades of service.

Classic clear-frame aesthetics

A clear anodized bezel surrounding deep-blue monocrystalline cells offers a timeless look that pairs well with both light and dark roofs. Thin front busbars and ARC glass create a clean, uninterrupted surface from the street.

FAQ

How much is shipping and how long is delivery?
Our standard shipping charge is $250 for up to 11 panels and it is increased by $25 for every 4 additional panels. In the event, the product is only available on East or West coast custom quote will be sent to you before the order is processed. Normally, we are able to deliver solar panels within 7 business days.
What is the difference between low price panels and top price panels?
With top tier solar panels, you pay for the brand name, proprietary new technology, higher energy output, and better warranty support.
What are the dimensions of the panel?
Please refer to the product datasheet on the product page. We have a datasheet for every product we sell.
How long is the warranty on the panel?
In general, manufacturers provide a 25 year-long performance warranty and a 10 year-long equipment guarantee. Some manufacturers offer 12-15 years of warranty. More information is available in our warranty support section.
Which panels do you recommend for RV, marine?
We recommend Panasonic and Mission Solar panels for smaller systems as their high energy output and excellent craftsmanship guarantee years of service.
Can this panel be used with a 12v system?
Any of our panels can be used for a 12v system with a properly selected inverter and charge controller.
Can I pick up this panel from your fulfillment center to save on shipping?
Yes, we can set up a pick up at a local distributor. Please call to discuss options and stock availability.
How do I connect these panels?
To achieve the best system efficiency, panels should be connected in series to create higher voltage.
How many panels do I need?
This number is determined by your average energy needs. Depending on the type of panels and energy consumption, you might need anywhere from 12 to 45 solar panels. Remember, the more panels you install the more energy you will get.Please use our solar calculator to estimate your energy consumption and plan on building a solar system that will exceed your energy needs by 25%.
How do I build a solar system?
Please use our solar calculator to estimate what equipment you need. Choose your panels, microinverters, inverters, and solar batteries if necessary.Please note that we do not offer solar system design or installation.
How do solar panels compare?
Solar panels differ by power output, voltage, connection type, size, efficiency, and weight. Some solar panels might be sold together with microinverters as a set.
Can I build a solar system by myself as a Do It Yourself project?
Yes, it is possible if you understand what solar equipment you need and how to connect it together. However, please be mindful that handling your own electrical work without having proper experience might cause life-threatening injuries. Please contact a certified electrician if you do not possess appropriate electrical skills.
Can I connect and charge my solar panel battery directly with the solar panel?
We do not recommend using the solar panel without the charge controller. Using solar panels without the charge controller might damage the batteries.
Can I drill holes into the aluminum frame for mounting?
We do not recommend drilling any new holes to the aluminum frame of the panel as it could damage the internal circuit and solar cells. (Also, any modification to the panel will void the warranty). We recommend only using the pre-drilled holes for mounting.
Do solar panels require maintenance? Can I wash my solar panel?
Solar panels generally require very little maintenance. We recommend cleaning the solar panel with water, glass cleaner (Windex) and microfiber cloth.
Will my panel produce power in an overcast condition?
While solar panels require sunlight to generate solar energy, they will still work in cloudy weather. Even on a cloudy day, solar panels will produce energy just not as much.
Will my panels produce power if covered with snow?
Solar panels cannot produce electricity if covered with snow.
What is the best direction for a solar panel to face?
The best direction for a solar panel to face is the South
