PowerGlazRomagRomag PowerGlaz® Modules





This is a range of standard modules with up to 235Wp per module and bespoke Glass Glass modules and insulating units for building integration allowing limitless architectural design opportunities.

Manufactured in the UKPowerGlaz® PV panels are manufactured in the UK.



Standard Modules


PowerGlaz 6(54) PV panelThese PowerGlaz® Photovoltaic (PV) standard panels use Romag’s extensive glass processing experience to produce high quality photovoltaic modules using the latest materials. Textured low iron glass is used as the outer component of the laminate to maximise the light transmission to the cells. The PV cells are connected in series and are encapsulated in EVA bonded to the glass sheet. A final layer of Tedlar is laminated to the rear of the module to complete the weather protection.

PowerGlaz® modules utilise 5inch (125mm x 125mm) cells and the latest 6inch (156mm x 156mm) variants. They are also available with either mono crystalline or polycrystalline cells. 5 Edition 2./IEC 61730.

With variants producing from 155Wp to 230Wp or more of nominal maximum power, PowerGlaz® modules are ideally suited for either grid connected or off-grid systems.



Warranty


Limited warranty for 80% power output for 25 years. Freedom from defects in materials and workmanship for 5 years. PowerGlaz® modules utilise cells obtained from market leaders and which fall into the higher efficiency bands.
This means that PowerGlaz® modules may exceed the performance of most modules on the market.

Romag PowerGlaz® BIPV Modules


PowerGlaz BIPV modules on City HallBuilding Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) is where PV panels (or modules) are used in the building envelope by substituting standard glass and other cladding materials with glass/glass laminates encapsulating Photovoltaic cells. />
PowerGlaz® BIPV can be integrated into vertical glazing, pitched glazing to canopies or walkways, and glazed roofs such as atria and conservatories. It can be single or double glazed, and will fit easily into most proprietary glazing systems.

These are Bespoke modules and can be made in any size or shape up to 4000mm x 2200mm.






Either monocrystalline or polycrystalline cells can be used and each type has its own aesthetic appeal so their choice may depend on the designers or architects vision of the building as much as their efficiency.

BIPV PowerGlaz panels on Southampton UniversityThe cells are laminated between two layers of toughened or heat strengthened glass. The outer layer is ‘low iron’ glass to maximise light transmission and the efficiency of the cells. The inner leaf of glass can be of virtually any glass type; eg. tinted, decorative or screen-printed to a specific design.

The layout of the cells and their density within the module can be specified with transparent glass areas in between the cells to optimise the amount of light or shade entering the building – giving a ‘dappled’ effect to the transmitted light.

Panels are fitted with proprietary plug-in connectors to enable interconnection of the modules to create a Photovoltaic ‘array’. This process is usually carried out by the glazing installers who do not necessarily need to have specialist electrical knowledge. On double glazed units connections exit from the edges of the unit, but single glazed modules offer the choice of either surface mounted or edge mounted connectors. The choice is largely dependent on the type of glazing system or aesthetic requirements.
