Solar PV Installation Testers
Given the growth of solar installations (also called PV installations) worldwide, it comes as no surprise that the safety and quality of these systems is being considered at an international level. In particular, the presence of a possible fire hazard or electrocution creates major risks when a PV installation is not installed correctly. This indicates that monitoring PV installations is a necessity. A standard quality control during installation and periodic inspection is therefore of enormous importance for the safety of both installer and user.

Solar Panel Large Walk-in Chambers
EWSX282
ESPEC's solid construction walk-ins are desirable for testing large loads of PV modules or panels at 85°C/85% as well as humidity-freeze and temperature cycling tests. Hermetically welded seams and stainless-steel interior ensure integrity under extreme conditions required by IEC.The models come in different performance versions, depending on your application. More powerful performance allows you to complete the temperature-cycling test faster, or with a maximum number of modules. There also is a 'damp-heat' only model that saves you capital-cost and energy.

Solar Simulation
Sciencetech solar simulators produce high intensity, uniform illumination on a target area. Typically, high power solar simulators use an ellipsoidal reflector to capture light from an arc lamp source inside the reflector, an arrangement that results in a light pattern with a bright outer region and a dark center. This non-uniformity is un- acceptable in many solar simulator applications and as a result, forces many of our solar simulator competitors to use designs involving diffusers to reduce the non-uniformity. This results in a reduction of intensity and a dis- tortion of the spectrum on the target area.

Solar Simulator for Multijunction Solar Cells
For series connected multijunction cells, at a given spectrum (e.g. AM 1.5 or AM 0 for space solar cells), one of the cells will limit the current in the series connection of cells. All solar simulators deviate from the true AM 1.5 spectrum, and they are only classified in wide spectral bands (100nm width). So even for class A or A+ solar simulators, it can easily happen that the bandgaps of the multijunction cells are such distributed that the 'wrong' cell will limit the current, if a solar simulator with fixed spectrum is used. In the 70s and 80s, when these measurements were first developed, intercomparisons showed deviations of cell efficiency in fixed spectrum solar simulators of more than 40%.

Highly Collimated Solar Simulators
This solar simulator is based on a Fresnel lens to collimate the light beam from the arc lamp source to infinity, which results in highly collimated illumination of the target spot. A 2.5kW xenon ozone free lamp is used as the light source. The spectral distribution of the xenon light source, along with the use of specially calibrated AirMass filters, closely simulates the sun’s true spectral distribution in various conditions on Earth.

Solar Radiation Testing
Solar radiation on materials can cause cosmetic deterioration with the fading or oxidation of plastic. This oxidation can make components start to fade and weaken. The heating effects of the sun can cause plastic, vinyl and/or metal components to shift or distort, causing operational interruption, shorts and false control inputs. The most significant effect is discoloration that cheapens the look of any quality product. These effects can be accentuated when combined with temperature and humidity.
