  • Our systems have multiple protection features. First, equipment such as DC combiner boxes and inverters have overload protection and will automatically shut down and disconnect in case of abnormal voltages like lightning strikes or leakage. Second, the photovoltaic modules are made of impact-resistant tempered glass, certified to withstand wind pressure up to 200Pa and snow pressure up to 7200Pa.
  • Not at all. We provide detailed installation drawings, user manuals, and practical setup videos. Our installation tools are complete, and any local electrician can easily install the TANFON system correctly.
  • Yes! During the daytime, solar energy charges the batteries. During power outages, the solar system will support the load. If the battery is insufficient, the system will automatically switch to grid or generator power.
  • Usually 3–5 days. For some solar products, the lead time is 15–20 days.
  • Please contact our sales team directly for detailed agent partnership conditions and benefits.
  • TANFON has 19 years of focused experience in providing one-stop service for commercial and industrial solar systems. We have installed over 50,000 systems across 200 countries, with dedicated local teams for support and annual follow-up visits.
  • Yes, we provide comprehensive training, including system operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting, both on-site and through online resources.
  • Yes, we are a manufacturer. You are welcome to visit our factory. Please contact us to arrange a visit.
  • We do not typically provide free samples due to the high value and customization of our systems. However, we can arrange a visit to our demonstration projects or provide detailed case studies.
  • Yes. Our products hold international certifications such as TUV and CE. We comply with relevant national and international standards.
  • We offer a 25-year product warranty and a 25-year performance warranty. If any defects are found upon receipt or commissioning, we will replace the modules free of charge. We also include 10 extra free panels as accessories with shipment.
  • Our panels are certified with TUV, CE, and other EU certifications.
  • Yes. Our modules are designed to operate from -45°C to +80°C and have proven installation experience in challenging environments like Chad.
  • The degradation rate starts at 2.5% in the first year, with a gradual decline each year, maintaining approximately 92.1% efficiency by the tenth year.
  • The service life of our panels is 25-30 years. We currently have no official recycling program for end-of-life modules.
  • The expected service life is 10-15 years.
  • Our inverters include protection against polarity reversal, overvoltage, overload, and ground faults, with fault code reporting.
  • The maximum efficiency is 98.7%.
  • Our inverters support 485 communication and are compatible with various monitoring systems.
  • Our inverters come with a built-in anti-PID function.
  • The battery life is 10-12 years, with a 5-year warranty. If any problem occurs, we will send a new battery.
  • 100% DoD is possible, but we recommend 90% for optimal system lifespan.
  • Up to 6000 cycles.
  • Structures are hot-dip galvanized, with a coating thickness of 85μm-100μm, suitable for various environmental conditions (C1-C5). The expected lifespan is 8-20 years.
  • Yes, our designs are based on provided wind, snow, and seismic data to ensure resilience.
  • With proper maintenance, transformers can last up to 25 years. Warranty terms are provided upon project confirmation.
  • Most transformers are oil-immersed (ONAN) cooling.
  • The engine overhaul maintenance time is 50,000 hours. The whole machine warranty is 5,000 hours or 2 years.
  • For example, a 500kW generator at full load consumes approximately 35 liters of diesel per hour.
  • Yes, our generators can be equipped with an ATS for automatic startup during grid failures.
  • We provide 24-hour online guidance to customize a system based on your specific electricity needs, location, and load profile.
  • We recommend selecting accessories certified by nationally recognized bodies. All components must match the system design in specifications, models, and technical parameters.
  • Yes. Our engineers can customize designs, including adjusting the DC/AC ratio, foundation height, tilt angle (e.g., 15°), row spacing (e.g., 3.5m), and module layout according to your site conditions and technical requirements.
  • Yes, we provide all necessary grounding equipment. Solar panels can be grounded directly through grounding holes on the frame.
  • We offer lifelong maintenance support and a free smart lifelong maintenance butler APP for monitoring and management.
  • We provide annual follow-up visits, remote monitoring, and timely technical support. For the BESS project, we will send spare parts if needed and establish a dedicated engineering support group.
  • We conduct multiple tests, including factory linkage testing, pre-shipment testing, and on-site commissioning tests to ensure installation quality.
  • We send engineers to guide the installation of all components (panels, structures, BESS, transformers). We also assist in recruiting local workers and provide all necessary tools and drawings.
  • Yes, we provide comprehensive training for local personnel on system operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting during project handover.
  • We offer an EMS (Energy Management System) for centralized monitoring of the entire plant via SCADA. It allows remote performance monitoring and sends alert messages in case of failures.
  • Yes, cameras can be installed in key areas like energy storage containers, transformer rooms, and near generators upon request.
  • Standard terms include a deposit before production and balance before shipment. Flexible terms can be discussed for large projects.
  • Yes, we accept L/C and other common international payment methods.
  • After customization, we ship goods by sea to the destination port. We handle the entire process, including transportation and customs declaration, ensuring smooth clearance. For regions like Africa and Asia, we offer door-to-door service or local pickup arrangements.
  • We assist with the complete customs clearance process to ensure you receive the goods without issues.
  • We provide all necessary documents, including commercial invoices, packing lists, bills of lading, and certificates of origin.
