This PERC-based module from 2021 offers no technological advantage over currently available tier-1 series. - **Shorter product warranty than some N-type competitors** - The 12-year product warranty is standard for the PERC generation but clearly falls short of newer TOPCon/HJT modules, which increasingly offer 15-25 years of product warranty alongside a full 30-year linear power warranty. ## About this series The Encor EC360M-6-120FB series pairs sleek aesthetics with solid build quality - this module was designed for roofs where a uniform, elegant installation look matters. It uses **half-cut monocrystalline cells**, which handle partial shading and microcracks better, keeping power losses lower under uneven irradiance than in traditional full-cell modules. The signature **full black design** - black composite backsheet and anodized black frame - lets the array blend seamlessly with dark roofing, a detail especially valued by homeowners who care about how the installation looks on their facade. This is a solution built for installers and private investors seeking a balance between premium aesthetics and a reasonable price - the EC360M-6-120FB is manufactured by Corab, a Polish producer, in cooperation with installers responding to real market needs. The panel comes with original **MC4 connectors** ensuring secure, weatherproof connections throughout the array. It is backed by a **12-year product warranty and 25-year linear power warranty**, serviced locally in Poland, translating into faster support and greater peace of mind compared to imported alternatives. ## Notable figures - Efficiency of 19.3% matches the \*\*PERC 0-400W\*\* median - At 192.7 W/m² power density, roof space requirements are typical for \*\*PERC 0-400W\*\* panels - At -0.36%/°C, hot weather performance is typical for \*\*PERC 0-400W\*\* panels - In the top 92% for efficiency among all PERC panels ## Questions ### Is the Corab Encor EC360M-6-120FB panel still available for purchase? The EC360M-6-120FB series has been discontinued from the manufacturer's current lineup and replaced by newer, higher-power models. Panels may still be available from distributors clearing warehouse stock, so it's worth checking availability and production date beforehand to make the most of the remaining warranty period. ### What warranty comes with the Corab EC360M-6-120FB panel? The manufacturer provides a 12-year product warranty and a 25-year linear power warranty. Since Corab is a Polish manufacturer headquartered locally, warranty service is handled domestically, which shortens claim processing time compared to panels imported from Asia. ### How do the half-cut cells in the EC360M-6-120FB differ from full-cell modules? The monocrystalline half-cut cells are cut in half, so under partial shading (from a chimney or leaf, for example) they lose less power than classic full-cell modules. Lower current losses also mean less heat buildup in the module and statistically longer cell lifespan. ### Does the EC360M-6-120FB panel suit a roof with dark roofing material? Yes, the module is built in a full black version - a black composite backsheet and anodized black frame let the panel blend into dark roofing, such as metal tile or graphite-colored ceramic tile, without contrasting white elements. ### What is the maximum power output of the Corab EC360M-6-120FB panel? The panel reaches a maximum power output of 360 Wp. That was a typical figure for PERC half-cut modules at the time this series launched, though higher-power panels with similar dimensions are now available, worth factoring into any price-per-Wp comparison. ### What connectors does the EC360M-6-120FB use, and is it compatible with common inverters? The panel is fitted with original MC4 connectors, the industry standard in photovoltaics. This makes the module compatible with most inverters and power optimizers on the market, while the connectors ensure a secure, weatherproof connection in the array. ## Datasheet [Manufacturer datasheet (PDF)](https://comparepv.com/datasheets/Moduly-Corab-Encor-370W-FullBlack-68a4a82dd99e.pdf) ## Alternatives | Panel | Power | How it differs | | --- | --- | --- | | [JA Solar NS-330MH-80](https://comparepv.com/panel/ja-solar-ns-330mh-80) | 330 W | Cooler, lighter, +3.9 pp | | [PolyCrown Solar Tech NS-330MH-80](https://comparepv.com/panel/polycrown-solar-tech-ns-330mh-80) | 330 W | Cooler, lighter, +3.9 pp | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M320W](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m320w) | 320 W | Lighter, +3.7 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M340W](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m340w) | 340 W | Lighter, +3.7 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M360W](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m360w) | 360 W | Lighter, +3.7 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M380W (1/4\*4\*38)](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m380w-1-4-4-38) | 380 W | Lighter, +3.7 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M400W (1/2\*4\*20)](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m400w-1-2-4-20) | 400 W | +40 W, +3.7 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M400W (1/4\*4\*40)](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m400w-1-4-4-40) | 400 W | +40 W, +3.7 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M380W (1/2\*4\*19)](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m380w-1-2-4-19) | 380 W | Lighter, +3.7 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Maxeon SPR-MAX3-400-COM](https://comparepv.com/panel/maxeon-spr-max3-400-com) | 400 W | Cooler, +3.3 pp, +15 yr warranty | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-510M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-510m) | 510 W | +150 W, cooler, +5.7 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A495-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a495-mce54mw) | 495 W | +135 W, cooler, +5.5 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-505M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-505m) | 505 W | +145 W, cooler, +5.4 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A490-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a490-mce54mw) | 490 W | +130 W, cooler, +5.2 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-500M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-500m) | 500 W | +140 W, cooler, +5.2 pp | | [Talesun CIPRO-TN9C54M-500W](https://comparepv.com/panel/talesun-cipro-tn9c54m-500w) | 500 W | +140 W, cooler, +5.2 pp | --- Source: https://comparepv.com/panel/corab-encor-ec360m-6-120fb Not in this file, on the page: a thirty-year output simulator and alternatives filtered by how closely they match these dimensions.
