Questions & answers

How efficient is the Aptos Solar DNA-120-MF23 330?

Calculated from the panel area (1.69 m²): about 19.6% for the 330 W class. 330 W over 1.69 m² equals about 196 W per square meter.

How much energy does one panel produce in Los Angeles or Palmdale?

PVWatts v8 with typical-year weather gives about 553 kWh per year per 330 W panel in Los Angeles and about 606 kWh in Palmdale (20° roof, facing south, 14% system losses).

How much power does it lose on a hot roof?

With γ = −0.40 %/°C, at a 77 °C cell temperature (hottest modeled hour in Palmdale) output is about 20.7% below the STC rating.

How many panels fit on one string?

With the Tesla 1538000-xx-y (max DC 600 V, MPPT from 60 V, datasheet) in Los Angeles the calculator gives 3–13 panels per string (Voc at 2 °C = 43.1 V, Vmp at 74 °C cell = 25.3 V). Final design must follow the inverter manual and NEC 690.7.

What does the warranty cover?

25 years on the product (manufacturer datasheet).

How big and heavy is it?

66.3 × 39.4 × 1.38 in (1,684 × 1,002 × 35 mm), 41.9 lb (19 kg).

What fire rating does it have?

UL 61730 fire rating Class C per datasheet.
