LumiSun-50 Solar Simulator

LumiSun-50 - the innovative, compact benchtop LED solar simulator that meets IEC 60904-9, 60904-3 Class A+A+A+ for spectral match, nonuniformity of irradiance, and temporal stability. 

Features

  • IEC class A+A+A+ compliant
  • Compact size
  • Irradiance 0.1 to 1.2 Suns
  • Long LED lifetime >20,000 hours
  • Spectral range 350-1250nm
  • 35 l  individually controlled
  • 50 x 50mm highly uniform area
  • RS485 & USB computer connection (Modbus RTU)
  • Steady state or pulsed modes

Applications

  • PV Cell testing & research
  • Photochemistry
  • Biological
  • Phototherapy research
  • Photodynamic therapy research
  • Materials testing
  • Weathering tests
  • Test machine vision sensors
  • Test LiDAR sensors
  • Multispectral, hyperspectral 

LumiSun-50 provides A+A+A+ illumination over a 50x50mm area, making it ideal for use in research labs to measure the efficiency and spectral response of PV cells, as well as a range of other applications such as photobiology, solar degradation, and other sunlight research studies.

LumiSun-50 incorporates the same Innovations in Optics’ (IOI) IP as their OEM solar simulators, sold in the thousands to leading PV manufacturers. IOI’s patent pending light collection optics and thermal management enable superior temporal stability and uniformity not only for the entire spectrum, but for individual wavelengths as well. Unlike bulky, expensive, environmentally unfriendly lamp-based units, LumiSun-50 employs a multi-wavelength array of long lifetime LEDs that are driven independently and can be user-controlled to set spectra.
