Ensure Top-Quality PV Modules with Solarif Risk Management
Discover how Solarif Risk Management ensures the quality of your solar panels through thorough verifications, visual inspections, I-V measurement tests, EL imaging, and packaging and loading checks.
Protect your investment and ensure the long-term performance of your solar panels with our comprehensive quality inspections.
Bill of Material (BOM) Verification
The Bill of Material in the PV sector is an extensive inventory list of certified materials needed for manufacturing PV panels. It details all components, quantities, purchase dates, costs, product codes, and manufacturer specifications. Any changes in materials require updating the BOM.
Solarif’s Risk Management team collects documentation and verifies the authenticity of these materials with the Constructional Data Form (CDF) to ensure only certified components are used.
Constructional Data Form (CDF) Check
A CDF is a comprehensive dossier listing all raw materials, components, design, and label information for a product. For PV panels, a CDF is created during certification by an accredited body per IEC 61215 standards. Manufacturers must use the listed components to maintain certification.
Solarif’s team ensures your solar PV modules meet certified specifications, preventing non-conformities through checks on label markings, weight, cable length, and module dimensions.
EL Imaging
EL imaging peers into the cells of a PV module to locate structural defects, such as cell cracks or snail trails.
Solarif’s team ensures modules meet quality standards by reviewing EL images to detect and tabulate defects like cracks, micro-cracks, and wafer pollution.
This test is performed before and after lamination to replace defective cells.
Visual Inspection
Visual inspection identifies visible defects in PV modules, preventing future failures. This quick, effective method is repeated multiple times to ensure thorough testing.
Solarif’s team detects major defects like scratches, damaged glass, solder joint flaws, back-sheet cuts, encapsulant yellowing, laminated debris, frame sealing gaps, hot spots, or chipped cells.
I-V Measurement Test
The I-V measurement test evaluates the output performance of PV modules, checking parameters like Voc (open circuit voltage), Isc (short circuit current), Pmax (maximum power output), and Vmax (voltage at maximum power).
Solarif’s team ensures modules perform according to rated power through calibration of solar simulators, tolerance checks, and adherence to Standard Test Conditions (STC).
