XR360 PV Module Weather Durability Testing System

Just as with material coupons and smaller components, full PV modules should be tested under appropriate conditions to reproduce the synergistic effects of the factors of weathering in end-use conditions. PV modules currently range in size from smaller OPVs to larger modules that can be several square meters. Atlas offers a number of weathering testing instruments and systems to accommodate a range of module sizes.

The XR360 comes in three models, each with the capacity to test over 90% of current PV modules while combining advancements in environmental chamber and xenon solar simulation technology.
