Description
Rich Solar RS-M100SL 100W Slim Monocrystalline Solar Panel
Overview
The Rich Solar RS-M100SL is a 100-watt slim-profile monocrystalline solar panel engineered for high-end mobile and off-grid energy systems. Measuring just over 15 inches wide, it’s perfect for narrow installation spaces on RVs, vans, boats, and custom enclosures. Designed for efficient performance and long-lasting reliability, the RS-M100SL includes 32 high-efficiency solar cells and an anodized aluminum frame with pre-drilled holes for flexible mounting options.
This panel is built to withstand the elements with AR-coated tempered glass and an IP67-rated junction box. It provides excellent performance even in low-light conditions and is tested to endure wind, snow, and hail—making it an ideal choice for rugged or mobile applications.
Key Features
- 100W Power Output with Slim Footprint: Optimized for tight installation spaces like van rooftops or narrow racking.
- High Efficiency Cells (19.2%): Monocrystalline 16-busbar technology ensures maximum yield in minimal space.
- Durable Frame and AR-Coated Glass: Withstands harsh outdoor conditions and improves light transmission.
- PID Resistant and EL Tested: Quality assured with over 30 in-house reliability tests.
- Certified for Harsh Environments: Handles up to 5400 Pa snow loads, 2400 Pa wind, and 35mm hail at 97 km/h.
- Pre-Drilled & Plug-and-Play: Ready for ground, pole, tilt, or Z-bracket mounting with industry-standard Solar Connectors.
