Bifacial 280W Half Cut Photovoltaic Module

The Maxell Power Bifacial 280W Half Cut Photovoltaic Module is a 280W mono-crystalline solar panel for solar power systems in the UAE and wider MEA region, suited to homes, shops, farms and small commercial installations. The model name lists it as a bifacial, half-cut module, and the sheet lists 72 mono-crystalline silicon cells in an anodized aluminum frame with 3.2mm pattern front glass. See the full solar panel range for other options, such as the Mono 210W / 220W Bifacial module.

It has a nominal output of 280W, an open circuit voltage (Voc) of 26.0V, a short circuit current (Isc) of 12.03A, a voltage at Pmax (Vmpp) of 24.5V and a current at Pmax (Impp) of 11.2A. The maximum system voltage is 1000VDC. The temperature coefficient is -0.34%/°C for Pmax, -0.27%/°C for Voc and 0.04%/°C for Isc. All data is at STC (Standard Test Conditions), with a Pmax tolerance of 0 to +3W.

The panel measures 1505 x 678 x 30 mm and weighs 11kg. It has a 1000mm output cable (1 x 2.5mm²) and an IP65 junction box (TUV & UL). The nominal operating cell temperature is 45±2°C, it works from -40°C to +85°C, and it can handle a maximum surface load of 5,400 Pa on the front and 2,400 Pa on the rear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Bifacial 280W Half Cut solar panel used for?
It is used to generate electricity from sunlight in solar power systems for homes, shops, farms and small commercial setups in the UAE and MEA region. It is connected to a compatible solar inverter or charge controller.

What are the power and electrical ratings of the Bifacial 280W Half Cut panel?
It has a nominal output of 280W, Voc of 26.0V, Isc of 12.03A, Vmpp of 24.5V and Impp of 11.2A at STC. The maximum system voltage is 1000VDC, and the Pmax tolerance is 0 to +3W.

What does bifacial half cut mean for this panel?
The model name is “Bifacial 280W Half Cut”, which points to a bifacial, half-cut cell design. The sheet does not give a bifacial gain figure, so the 280W rating should be treated as the STC rating, and any extra rear-side output depends on your installation.

What is the size and weight of the Bifacial 280W Half Cut panel?
It measures 1505 x 678 x 30 mm and weighs 11kg. It has 72 mono-crystalline silicon cells, an anodized aluminum frame and 3.2mm pattern front glass.

What temperature and load limits does this panel have?
The operating temperature is -40°C to +85°C, and the nominal operating cell temperature (NOCT) is 45±2°C. The maximum surface load is 5,400 Pa on the front and 2,400 Pa on the rear. The temperature coefficient of Pmax is -0.34%/°C.

How much does the Bifacial 280W Half Cut panel cost in the UAE, and which inverter does it need?
The price depends on the quantity and the current market rate, so contact Maxell Power for a quotation. It connects to a compatible solar inverter, and your string voltage and current must stay within the inverter’s input limits.
