Among the newest offerings of Trina Solar, 385-DE09C.05 is part of the TSM series. These panels use state-of-the-art technology to achieve high efficiency and dependability. 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.
The use of half-cut cell technology is an additional perk. The solar cells of 385-DE09C.05 are half the size of those found in standard panels. Major advantages include reduced power consumption, extended life and enhanced efficiency in low-light conditions. The efficiency of this model reaches 20% — well above the market’s average. 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. The innovations made the appearance of the panel as impressive as the specs. A mere 1.18" thick, this model is completely black with a smooth surface. This beauty doesn’t compromise the quality or reliability of the panel. Trina Solar provides a 25-year product warranty. Stable power output is also guaranteed — performance warranty will protect you during 25 years.

High productivity thanks to the most recent developments
This Trina Solar panel produces 385 W of power at 20 percent efficiency. High levels of energy output are reached by utilizing the most recent innovations in the solar sector. A more efficient panel produces more per square foot and pays for itself sooner.
Exceptional performance in hot temperatures
A low temperature coefficient provides more energy output at high working temperatures. 385-DE09C.05 loses just -0.34 percent efficiency for every 1.8°F over 77°F.
Quality and reliability
385-DE09C.05 receives multiple quality checks throughout the manufacturing process and is subject to stringent quality and reliability testing. The manufacturing facilities are highly automated, eliminating the risk of human error. Trina Solar is dedicated to quality, safety and reliability to ensure you get the very best.
Reliability and degradation resistance
Trina 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 385 W Trina Solar solar panel also comes with a substantial 25-year product warranty.
Certified for the most extreme environmental conditions
PID, salt, acid and ammonia cannot harm 385-DE09C.05. Furthermore, it has a mechanical load resistance of up to 6000 Pa in the front and 4000 Pa in the back. A layer of protective glass and 1.18" thick anodized aluminum alloy frame are the primary reasons for its toughness.
Stunning black aesthetics
The sleek, all-black aesthetics of the panel will complement any rooftop. By using a variety of treatments and selection criteria, the producer guarantees high quality cell color. Engineers at Trina Solar employ smaller gauge wires to link the cells together, creating a seamless appearance.
