LED Sun Simulator
Optional: EL / diode test / dark IV / Thermal chamber
The MBJ Sunlike Lab boasts outstanding spectral properties. With its sunlight-like spectrum, it’s the perfect solution for the laboratory.
The new light source features 32 individually controllable LED types, achieving a spectral coverage (SPC) of nearly 100 % and a spectral deviation (SPD) of
approximately 12 %.
The light source is water-cooled and can therefore be operated in both pulsed and continuous light mode.
The integrated temperature chamber, with a temperature range of 15–75°C, completes the system. Its compact dimensions of approximately 2.2 m x 3.4 m allow the system to fit into almost any laboratory.
The nearly sun-like spectrum reduces measurement effort in the laboratory to a minimum. This generally eliminates the need for spectral correction of the measured module compared to the reference.
This advantage is particularly noticeable in tandem solar modules. For perovskite-silicon-based solar modules, the Z-factor deviation is less than 1 %, eliminating the need for complex adjustment of the light spectrum to align the currents of the top and bottom cells.
The lab is designed for flash and continuous light operation. It’s easy to convert laboratory measurement methods to production measurement methods and to evaluate them in direct comparisons.
A powerful thermal unit for the measurement chamber and water cooling for the LEDs make this possible.
The sun simulator features an integrated EL system with an automatic filter changer. By using appropriate filters, the spectral components of the top and bottom cells can be highly separated.
The intuitive software makes operating the system easier than ever. Measurement sequences including heating, preconditioning, measuring and cooling can be easily configured with a mouse click using drag and drop.
