The SOLROOF system panels underwent rigorous testing at the Fraunhofer Institute, our production line also received certification.
What does it mean for SOLROOF customers?
1️⃣ Resistance to hail – The SOLROOF roof effectively protects your home from hail! In a specialized test, the modules were subjected to impacts from ice balls with a diameter of up to 25 mm, launched at a speed of 23 m/s (83 km/h).
2️⃣ Moisture and condensation resistance – SOLROOF passed a key durability test confirming resistance to prolonged exposure to high temperatures and humidity: 1000 hours at 85°C with 85% relative humidity.
3️⃣ Resistance to overheating – SOLROOF has passed the durability test for so-called hot spots, which are local overheating and self-ignition that can impact the lifespan and safety of the module.
4️⃣ Resistance to extreme temperatures – SOLROOF panels successfully passed 200 test cycles in extreme temperature conditions from -40°C to 85°C, in accordance with the IEC 61215 standard.
5️⃣ Durability during freezing – The panels underwent a demanding test involving 10 cycles of varying temperatures from -40°C to 85°C at high humidity (85%).
The testing of the panels was conducted by the renowned organization Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE – part of Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, the largest independent European research institution. The organization specializes in advanced testing of modern technologies, with particular emphasis on the photovoltaic sector. Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft brings together as many as 66 German scientific research institutes, establishing an authority in the field of energy innovations.
