Bulletins SL1 & SL2 to be phased out
To make it easier and more convenient for customers to identify and select the protection solutions they need, we are streamlining our portfolio by phasing out the SL1 & SL2 bulletins.
At this time, as we are moving out of this specific segment, we do not have any recommended substitutes in our global product portfolio.
When and how will the SL1 & SL2 bulletins be phased out?
The bulletins will be phased out for all markets as follows:
| Action RJ-1 Solar Rooftop Junction Box - OBSOLETE No more quotes or SPAs Stop taking orders End of production SL1 & SL2 line final shipments | Deadline IMMEDIATELY September 1, 2025 September 15, 2025 October 1, 2025 October 15, 2025 |
Please note:
- Products will be delivered after phase out deadline only if stock remains available.
- Ongoing projects for customized SL1 & SL2 products will be reviewed with customers to assess and define the transition timeline and conditions.
