Marine-grade ETFE solar panel for buoys, navigation and offshore instruments.

5W 16.7V Marine-Grade Solar Panel for Buoys, Navigation & Offshore Instruments

In open-sea environments, power systems must withstand salt corrosion, constant UV radiation, and humidity ingress. Standard solar panels degrade rapidly at sea, causing failure of critical equipment. Our 5W marine-grade solar modules ensure long-term energy stability and prevent moisture penetration and corrosion for buoys, navigation instruments and offshore devices.

Built with premium monocrystalline PERC cells and durable ETFE coating, this 5W 16.7V marine-grade panel delivers stable power output (300mA Imp) and IP67 waterproof protection, ideal for harsh offshore and marine environments.

Why Marine-Grade Solar Matters

Standard solar panels fail quickly in open-sea conditions due to salt corrosion, UV damage and moisture ingress. Our marine-grade modules are engineered for long-term reliability, ensuring critical marine equipment (buoys, navigation instruments, trackers) maintains consistent power in harsh offshore environments.

Key Features

  • Salt-Mist Resistant: Anti-corrosion encapsulation for long-term seawater resistance
  • IP67 Waterproof: Prevents moisture ingress against waves, splashes, and condensation
  • UV-Stable ETFE Coating: Excellent UV resistance and weatherproof capability
  • High Efficiency PERC Cells: Premium monocrystalline cells for maximum energy harvest
  • Stable Output: 5W power with 16.7V voltage, ideal for low-voltage marine devices
  • Compact Design: 230x230x2.5mm dimensions for easy integration into buoys/instruments
  • Custom Cables: Optional custom connectors for marine installation compatibility

Typical Applications

  • Ocean & coastal buoy systems
  • Marine navigation instruments and beacons
  • AIS / GPS tracking devices
  • Offshore weather monitoring equipment
  • Sea-surface IoT sensors
  • Asset tracking for offshore equipment
