Description
Canadian Solar HiDM CS1H-340MS 340W Solar Panel
The 340 watt CS1H-340MS solar panel features state-of-the-art High Density Mono PERC solar cells. This robust and reliable solar panel is rated for up to a 5400 Pa snow load and a wind load of up to 2400 Pa.
With Canadian Solar’s innovative shingled module and Mono-PERC cell technology they can now offer small format high density modules of very high-efficiency. HiDM with its enhanced aesthetics and IP granted module design is the ideal solution for residential rooftop installations. Through maximizing the light absorption area and removing the loss of ribbon resistance, the module efficiency of the CS1H-340MS acheives an impressive 20.16%.
Ensured by over 15 years of experience in module manufacturing, the CS1H-340MS solar panel features a well-engineered module design, stringent BOM quality testing, an automated manufacturing process and 100% EL testing.
- Reliable & efficient HiDM Mono PERC solar cells
- Better shading tolerance
- Lower internal current, lower hot spot temperature
- PV wire w/ T4 ( Standard Solar Connection) connectors
- Reassuring power tolerance of +5W
- 5400 Pa snow load rating
- 2400 Pa wind load rating
- Can I recharge & discharge at the same time?
Yes, you can.
- How long does it take to charge?
3 hrs - BPE 2.5 kWh
5 hrs - BPE extended or BPE XP 3.6 kWh
- How long does it charge off solar?
Dependent on amount of panels put max.
Max can connect is 780 W = 5-8 hr recharge time dependent on sun conditions
- Delivery?
Free within US/Canada
- Returns?
Can return within 30 days for a full refund, must be in like-new, unused condition.
5% restocking fee + return shipping.
- Do you have a warranty?
6 months commercial warranty + 1 year standard warranty - on everything
2 years or 500 cycles
- How long will it last?
Reference blog post + run time thing + reach out for specific questions.
- Can I leave it outside?
Yes, like anything else, bring indoors, but IP54 rated (weatherproof).
- How long can you leave it without charging?
In storage mode with everything off and fully charged, leave up to 3 months. Longer periods of time can be achieved, but need to top up to maintain battery health.
- How safe is the battery chemistry?
Link to myths.
We use the safest chemistry available for lithium ion. Sophisticated BMS to prevent accidents/issues before they come up.
- What is the maintenance like?
No maintenance required. But if using in dusty locations, we recommend using our vent filters.
- Typical ROI/lifespan?
Depending on the model, 2500-3000 cycles (depending on model). Each cycle is a complete charge and discarhge. Dependent on usage. We find that typically lasts anywhere from 8-20 years. After those cycles, the product is not obsolete, may have reduced performance (operating at < 80%).
The typical pay back period is roughly 2 years, compared against generators + 3x/week.
13. How does the product compare against a generator?
Can be used indoors or outdoors.
Quiet
No fuel/maintenance
No fumes/safer
Lighter
Easier to use
Lower cost over the life of a product (3-5 years for generator)
- What kind fo applications can this be used for?
Construction
Railway
Transit
Mining
Marine
Military
Events
Emergency Response
Backup Power
- Can this be used to automatically power a circuit when the power goes out?
Yes, speak to our team re: the automatic transfer switch installation.
- Do you have any smaller or bigger units?
Yes, we do offer custom power solutions. Reach out to our team.
