Solar module SCHWAIGER Slim 2×200W with 1.6 m cable, model SOPA5400

The SCHWAIGER Slim 2×200W solar module pack (model SOPA5400) provides a combined 400W of DC power in a low-profile design with an integrated 1.6 m cable. These slim photovoltaic panels are intended to convert sunlight into usable electricity for off-grid and auxiliary applications where space is limited. The compact form factor simplifies mounting on flat or slightly curved surfaces, while the integrated cable reduces installation steps and the need for additional connectors.

Advantages

The slim construction reduces visual bulk and allows mounting in tight spaces such as caravan roofs, boat decks, and compact cabin roofs. Two 200W panels deliver a total output suitable for charging batteries and powering small off-grid loads. The factory-fitted 1.6 m cable provides a clean, ready-to-connect wiring solution that shortens setup time. Durable materials and a flat profile support straightforward placement and lower wind resistance compared with thicker framed modules.

Suitable for

• Caravans and motorhomes requiring supplementary power for appliances and charging
• Marine use on boats and yachts for battery charging and auxiliary systems
• Small cabins, garden houses and off-grid weekend shelters
• Portable or temporary installations where quick mounting and low profile are needed
• Backup power systems for lighting, small electronics and battery maintenance

Key specifications

• Total nominal power: 400 W (2 × 200 W panels)
• Output type: DC power for battery charging and DC loads
• Integrated cable length: 1.6 m
• Form factor: slim / low-profile module design
• Typical application: off-grid auxiliary power and battery charging

How to use

Mount the slim panels on a suitable flat or slightly curved surface with adequate mechanical support, ensuring the panels face the sun with minimal shading for optimum output. Route the integrated 1.6 m cable to the charge controller or battery input, observing correct polarity and recommended cable protection. Use an appropriate solar charge controller and battery management to match the battery type and system voltage; follow local electrical codes and safety practices during installation. Regularly inspect the mounting and cable connections for wear or corrosion.

Usage recommendations

For reliable battery charging and system longevity, pair the solar module pack with a compatible MPPT or PWM solar charge controller sized for the combined 400 W output and the system voltage. Position the modules to avoid shade from nearby objects and clean the surface periodically to maintain efficiency. In marine environments, use corrosion-resistant fasteners and ensure cable entry points are sealed against moisture.
