New MD Series: ERW-Ready Module Diodes Delivering Superior Heat Dissipation for PV Junction Boxes

Aug. 07, 2025

Module diodes are widely used as bypass diodes in PV junction boxes, helping protect solar modules and maintain reliable operation under partial shading conditions.

Hornby’s MT Series has long been one of our commonly used module diode solutions for solar junction boxes. As PV junction box manufacturing continues to evolve, the demand for automated and efficient assembly processes such as ERW has also increased.

To meet these new manufacturing requirements, Hornby has developed the MD Series ERW-ready module diode, designed specifically for PV junction box applications.

Designed for ERW Assembly

The MD Series is compatible with the ERW process, providing PV junction box manufacturers with an additional module diode solution for automated production.

Compared with conventional module diode solutions, the MD Series is designed to combine ERW process compatibility with improved thermal performance.

Improved Heat Dissipation

Heat dissipation is an important consideration for a PV bypass diode, particularly as solar module current continues to increase.

The MD Series provides improved heat dissipation, helping support reliable diode operation inside compact PV junction boxes.

Module Diode Solutions for PV Junction Boxes

With both the established MT Series and the new MD Series, Hornby offers multiple module diode options for different PV junction box designs and manufacturing processes.

The MD Series is particularly suitable for manufacturers looking for:

·       ERW-compatible module diodes

·       Improved heat dissipation

·       PV junction box bypass diode solutions

·       Reliable module diode options for automated assembly
