Kyocera Solar Inc.
KD Series 140W, 12V Multicrystalline Solar Panel
KD140GX-LFBS
The Kyocera KD 140 solar panel is very popular for off-grid solar applications. It's available in 2 different versions - the SX and the GX. So when should you use which and why? The solar cells and frame are identical between the two. The main difference is how you connect them in your system. But here are some distinctions to help you decide:
- The GX version comes with a sealed junction box on the back with PV wire and +/- solar connectors. This makes it very easy to wire them in series with other solar panels, so it's useful for when you have several panels in your array.
- The GX is also appropriate if you have a portable system, like a boat or RV, where you have to disconnect and store the panels for some time. There is a disconnect key that makes it easy to do so for the GX version.
- The SX version, on the other hand, comes with a junction box only- no cables. It comes with 2 water tight strain releifs inside the junction box to provide a water tight seal around the wires. This allows you to open up the junction box and do your own wiring, so it's useful when you're installing the panel on a boat and want to use marine grade wire, for example.
- The SX panel, then, is great for a smaller solar system with only 1 or 2 panels - ideal for such applications as solar water pumping.
