Xenon-lamp solar simulators that reproduce AM1.5G sunlight for photovoltaic research and quality assurance.

Sirius series solar simulators use a xenon arc lamp with an AM1.5G spectral correction filter to approximate sea-level sunlight for testing all types of solar cells. All models reach a Class A spectral match (0.75–1.25) to IEC 60904-9 and deliver up to 1200 W/m² over a 40 × 40 mm or 60 × 60 mm area with ±4° collimation. Versions are available for upward, downward or horizontal (left) irradiation.

Key Features

Class A spectral match (0.75–1.25) across the six IEC 60904-9 bands from 400 to 1100 nm
Class A non-uniformity and instability (≤2%) on SS150A and SS300A models; Class B non-uniformity (≤5%) on SS150 models
Optical intensity stability < 0.5%, within the ≤2% Class A instability limit
Intensity continuously adjustable from 0.2 to 1.2 sun, maximum output 1200 W/m²
Built-in timer records bulb operating hours; remote shutter control
Optical path configurable for vertical or horizontal irradiation
Optional IV-2400 or IV-2450 digital source meter for complete I-V measurement

Typical Applications

Solar cell I-V and efficiency testing
Photovoltaic device research
Quality assurance of solar cells
Light source for solar cell I-V test systems
