SUPER HIGH EFFICIENCY
POLYGEN4 MODULE
CS3U-345|350|355|360P
With Canadian Solar’s industry leading black silicon cell
technology and the innovative LIC (Low Internal Current) module
technology, we are now able to offer our global customers high
power poly modules up to 360 W.
The KuMax poly modules with a dimension of 2000 ˣ 992 mm,
close to our 72 cell MaxPower modules, have the following
unique features:
• Higher power classes for equivalent module sizes
• High module efficiency up to 18.15 %
• LOW hot spot temperature risk
• LOW temperature coefficient (Pmax): -0.38 % / °C
• LOW NMOT (Nominal Module Operating Temperature): 43 ± 2 °C

More power output thanks to Low power loss in cell

low NMOT: 43 ± 2 °C connection

Safer: lower hot spot Heavy snow load up to 5400 Pa,

temperature wind load up to 2400 Pa

Low BoS cost with

1500 VDC system voltage
