产品介绍

Steady-State Solar Simulator delivers continuous, stable sunlight–like illumination, making it ideal for photovoltaic and photoelectric device testing. It’s especially suited for slow-response cells such as thin-film and dye-sensitized solar cells.

Our Class AAA Steady-State Solar Simulator uses a high-pressure xenon lamp and coaxial collimation optics to achieve high irradiance and excellent uniformity, ensuring reliable performance for all solar‐cell and photoelectric characterization.

Technical Advantages：

Simple Optical Design with high electro-optical conversion efficiency
Adjustable Xenon Lamp Power via a unique power-supply circuit
Separable Power Unit & Lamp Housing for enhanced portability
Secondary-Filter Optical Head for superior filtering performance

Advanced Heat-Dissipation Housing extends lamp life with optimal thermal management
Imported Xenon Bulb delivers focused high-density output, boosting experimental throughput
Modular Construction ensures maximum safety and stability, enabling 24/7 continuous operation (attended)

General Acceptance Criteria for Solar Simulators

Our NPLS Series solar simulators comply with both IEC international and national standards, and can be verified using the following standard methods：

1、Irradiance Uniformity：Measure the short-circuit current of a reference PV cell at multiple points across the illuminated area.
Non-uniformity (%) = (Max – Min) / (Max + Min) × 100 (±)

2、Irradiance Stability：Place the same reference PV cell under continuous illumination for 1 hour. Record the current over time.
Instability (%) = (Max – Min) / (Max + Min) × 100 (±)

3、Spectral Match：Use a calibrated spectroradiometer to measure the output spectrum and compare against the AM 1.5G reference curve.
