Solar Simulator
Device: Sun Simulator Setup
Specifications: Solar Simulator: WXS-90S-L2 by WACOM, Saitama, Japan / IV-Setup and Software: Sun Simulator SUS V2.0 / Oerlikon
Tool Responsibles: Malte Langenhorst, Ulrich Paetzold
Location: Solar Lab (R203, B301) at the Institute of Microstructure Technology
Short Description
The solar simulator provides illumination approximating natural sunlight. It is a controllable indoor test facility to determine the power conversion efficiency and material stability under standardized conditions mimicking the international solar irradiation standard AM1.5G. It is a commercial solar simulator certified to highest accuracy class named AAA (WXS-90S-L2 by WACOM, Saitama, Japan). The illumination is homogeneous up to areas of 4”, enabling to perform tests on single solar cells as well as thin-film solar modules up to these dimensions. The tool is most in our lab for the testing of solar cells, solar harvesting devices and luminescent materials.
Manual
The solar simulator is certified to highest accuracy class named AAA (see also File:Spectrum.pdf)
Important Rules
- After switching of the lamps you need to keep the cooling fan running for at least 20 min! Otherwise you will damage the lamps.
- Lamps can only be exchanged by tool responsibles! Do not touch the optics or inner parts of the solar simulator!
- Be aware that the lamps operate at high voltages!
- Always wear personal protection equipment (1) safety goggles (2) clothing w. long sleves (3) gloves
