SUNBEAMsystem Tough+ Flush solar modules offer 16% more power than comparable models from the Tough series and are a reliable source of energy even under the harshest conditions thanks to the highly efficient SUNPOWER cells (23.7% efficiency). Due to their impressive technical properties, the Tough-Flush+ modules are often used in the yacht and caravan sector, as well as in private and industrial off-grid systems.
The surface of these modules is extremely durable and resistant to high UV radiation. The material has a better light transmission than conventional materials. The surface has non-slip properties.
Higher efficiency and performance
The SUNBEAM Tough+ series offers 16% more power than comparable models from the SUNBEAM Tough series. The Tough+ series features high-quality SUNPOWER cells, which increase the efficiency of the modules by 1.2% to a total of 23.7% compared to the Tough series.
In addition, the flush connection cable has been extended by 0.5 metres to a total of 2 metres and the SUNBEAM Tough+ solar modules are held in place by high-quality 3M VHB adhesive tape.
Special features of this module type
The semi-flexible flush modules, which are only 3 mm thin, feature no obstacles or tripping hazards on the module surface because there is no junction box. This is the only type of module that can be mounted almost flush with the surface (flush mount)
With rear-side module connection via an inconspicuous, 2-core flat black connector cable. The cable can be glued to dark surfaces / mounting surfaces next to the module, almost so that it is barely visible.
Details at a glance
- Semi-flexible
- High level of efficiency
- Durable and UV-resistant
- Small size and high performance
- Yield enhancing, anti-slip surface structure
- Flush mounting (no annoying connection box on the module surface)
Technical specifications
Because the connecting cables of the flush modules run directly out of the back of the module, there are no integrated blocking / bypass diodes on these modules. For modules with a connection box, these are usually integrated in the connection box.
Bypass / blocking diodes
Use bypass / blocking diodes if necessary (in accordance with the installation instructions). The F1200D Schottky diode (12A / 200V) is suitable for 5 - 350 Wp modules and is available from electronics retailers or from us on request.
To install, the module connection cables must be routed to a dry installation area and, together with the diode, mounted on suitable terminal blocks, e.g. item 47023. "In-line" installation is not advisable, as the diodes can become quite warm when the module is shaded.
Make sure that the diodes have the correct polarity! A ring or point on the diode housing marks the cathode. This must be connected to the PLUS connection of the module.
Important: Incorrect or reverse polarity connected diodes can damage the solar module.

Installation instructions
- Tough+ solar modules are supplied with a double-sided 3M adhesive pad. The adhesive pad is the easiest and most durable installation method for your Sunbeam solar panel. The 2 mm thick pad runs across the entire module size. Important: Please observe the manufacturer's instructions for correct mounting and electrical installation in the provided installation manual.
- Do not use modules with more than 50 W on a soft surface. SUNBEAM Tough Flush solar modules with greater than 50 watts of power are designed for permanent installation on a solid surface. Mounting can be done by gluing or screwing.
- For mobile or temporary use, modules up to 50 W and a fixed connection box are more suitable.
