These sensors are designed to monitor the temperature of solar panels, providing useful data to optimize energy production and ensure the sustainability of the solar installation. Module temperature sensors are devices placed at the back of Module (BOM) to measure the temperature of the photovoltaic cells.
Module temperature sensors provide real-time data, enabling the system to implement cooling mechanisms or adjust the angle of the panels to prevent overheating. This proactive policy maintains optimum operating conditions, guaranteeing constant energy production. High temperatures can lead to accelerated solar panel degradation over time.
Temperature sensors shall have a measurement resolution ≤ 0,1 °C and uncertainty ± 1 °C or better. This requirement aligns with the SEVEN Module temperature sensor, utilizing a PT1000 probe laminated between EVA film and two Tedlar Backsheets.
Based on established standards, the type of sensor recommended for permanent measurement of module surface temperature is one equipped with flat probes specifically designed for prolonged surface measurements.
