Weight of single-glass and double-glass modules

4 FAQs about [Weight of single-glass and double-glass modules]

How much does a glass module weigh?

The weight of glass-glass modules are still an issue, with current designs using 2 mm thick glass on each side for framed modules, the weight is about 22 kg, while 2.5 mm on each side will increase the module’s weight to 23 kg. Compared to traditional glass-foil modules, which are about 18 kg, this is a 20% increase in weight.

Are double-glass modules better than single-sided glass panels?

However, advancements in glass technology have mitigated this issue to some extent. Weight: Double-glass modules are generally heavier than single-sided glass panels due to the additional glass layer. Applications: Double-glass modules are well-suited for environments with harsh weather conditions, high humidity, or corrosive elements.

Why should you choose a double glass module?

Durability: Double-glass modules are more robust and resistant to environmental stressors, such as moisture, UV radiation, and temperature fluctuations. The dual glass layers provide enhanced protection against physical damage, moisture ingress, and degradation over time.

What is a glass-glass module?

Glass-Glass module designs are an old technology that utilises a glass layer on the back of modules in place of traditional polymer backsheets. They were heavy and expensive allowing for the lighter polymer backsheets to gain the majority of the market share at the time.
