Salt spray test of photovoltaic panels

6 FAQs about [Salt spray test of photovoltaic panels]

What is salt spray testing?

Salt spray testing, following standards such as ASTM B117, is commonly used to assess the corrosion resistance of materials. In this test, solar cell samples are exposed to a controlled mist of saltwater solution to accelerate corrosion processes.

Which test sequences are used to determine the resistance of PV modules?

This document describes test sequences useful to determine the resistance of different PV modules to corrosion from salt mist containing Cl (NaCl, MgCl 2, etc.). All tests included in the sequences are fully described in IEC 61215-2, IEC 62108, IEC 61730-2 and IEC 60068-2-52.

How does salt spray affect a PV system?

The impact of salt spray and seawater on a PV system is described by the academics as a dynamic process through which salt spray creates a layer on the module, thus forming a water film on its surface. “At the same time, the seawater will also cover the surface of the PV module,” they emphasized.

What is salt mist test based on?

This Standard can be applied to both flat plate PV modules and concentrator PV modules and assemblies. Salt mist test is based on IEC 60068-2-52 rather than IEC 60068-2-11 as in edition 1 since the former standard is much more widely used in the electronic component field.

What changes have been made to the salt mist test references?

The salt mist test references have been updated to harmonize with changes to IEC 60068‑2‑52. - A normative annex has been added to provide guidance on which of the test methods in IEC 60068-2-52 are applicable to different applications. This includes references to new test methods in the latest edition of IEC 60068-2-52.

Does salt spray reduce solar radiation?

The combined influence of salt particles, as a heating agent and a factor reducing solar radiation, resulted in a 10% yield reduction for the experimental PV system. The scientists concluded that more research is needed to understand completely the dynamics of the coexistence between salt spray and seawater.
