Model LUM 12170 | Polycrystalline Silicon | 36 Full-Cell Configuration | Monofacial | 1000V System Voltage
The Luminous Power Technologies LUM 12170 170W polycrystalline solar panel delivers reliable performance for home and small commercial systems. This compact 12V class module suits rooftop, off-grid and hybrid installations where dependable energy output matters. Powerful polycrystalline cells convert sunlight into electricity with up to 16.47% module efficiency under standard test conditions. The panel uses high transmission tempered glass with anti-reflection coating for better light capture throughout the day. A rugged anodized aluminium frame and EVA encapsulation help protect cells against moisture and mechanical stress. Engineered for Indian weather, the module withstands strong wind and significant snow loads. The LUM 12170 integrates easily with 12V battery banks, charge controllers and inverters from leading brands. Its balanced voltage and current ratings make it ideal for charging solar batteries efficiently during peak sun hours. This model sits within a broader Luminous range from 110W to 335W, allowing flexible system sizing. Homeowners, small businesses and off-grid users can adopt this panel to reduce electricity bills and gain energy independence. The design emphasises long term performance, value for money and ease of integration into new or existing systems.
Efficient 170W power output: Rated maximum power of 170 Wp supports dependable energy generation for 12V based systems. This output suits battery charging and small appliance loads in residential and off-grid setups.
Optimised 12V system compatibility: With a Vmpp of 18.86 V and Impp of 9.02 A, the panel matches typical 12V solar charge controllers. This combination helps achieve steady charging for 100Ah to 150Ah battery banks.
Durable construction for harsh weather: The 3.2 mm tempered glass with anti-reflection coating protects cells from impact and soiling. An anodized aluminium frame adds rigidity and corrosion resistance in coastal and dusty locations.
High quality encapsulation and safety: EVA encapsulant secures cells and interconnections against humidity and thermal stress. The panel is designed to minimise power loss from stray currents and ensure safe long term operation.
Trusted Indian brand and broad range: Manufactured by Luminous Power Technologies in India, the module fits clean energy projects nationwide. Its inclusion in a family from 110 Wp to 335 Wp simplifies scaling solar capacity as energy needs grow.
Inside the LUM 12170 panel, multiple polycrystalline silicon cells convert sunlight into usable DC electricity. Each cell contains many silicon crystals that together form a semiconductor junction. When light hits the surface, photons transfer energy to electrons inside the silicon lattice. These energised electrons move across the internal electric field and create a direct current flow. Cells are connected electrically in series and parallel to achieve the desired voltage and current output. The resulting power leaves the panel through junction box connections and attached cables. A solar charge controller regulates this power before it reaches the battery bank or inverter. The anti-reflection coated glass reduces light loss and improves energy harvest throughout the day. EVA encapsulant, backsheet and frame provide mechanical support and protect the circuit from the environment. Over its lifetime, the module continues generating clean energy whenever adequate sunlight is available.
Photovoltaic energy conversion: Polycrystalline cells act as semiconductors that absorb sunlight and release electrons. These electrons flow through metal contacts and external conductors, forming a steady DC output for your system.
Module configuration and performance: The panel reaches its rated power at around 18.86 V and 9.02 A under standard conditions. Open circuit voltage of 23.01 V and short circuit current of 9.61 A define its operating window for controllers and inverters.
Protection, durability and safety: High transmission tempered glass shields the cells from impact and UV exposure while enhancing light intake. EVA encapsulation, composite backsheet and an anodized aluminium frame work together to prevent moisture ingress and electrical faults.
