Sciencetech’s SHC Highly Collimated Solar Simulators were designed for photovoltaic cell testing applications where a very high degree of collimation of the incident radiation is required. CPV and solar thermal applications generally, both require light sources with angular divergences approaching that of the sun (0.5 degrees).
Sciencetech’s highly collimated solar simulators can provide ABA classification, large area continuous illumination (9” and 12” respectively) and high collimation (0.7 degrees half angle). These solar simulators include integrated power supplies and an advanced lamp alignment tool which makes them easy to use
Sciencetech’s SLP Highly Collimated Solar Simulators were designed for diverse applications, including solar thermal, satellite, and CPV applications. With highly collimated outputs available (up to 0.35 degrees half angle), these systems still retain the ability to maintain more uniform targets using a robust homogenizing system.
These systems are able to be selected to accommodate various spectral, irradiance, and homogenization requirements in addition to high collimation.
Compatible with class 1000,000 cleanroom. Includes 1.6Kw Xenon light source, efficient elliptical reflector, and homogenizing optics, touch screen interface, and a 100mm diameter exhaust port for forced air cooling.
