Atlas SolarTest 1200 is a small benchtop solar simulator designed for irradiating small specimens. Very popular in the PV-industry; for example, research studies of PV solar cells.

Overview +

The SolarTest 1200 is a small benchtop test unit to simulate global radiation of AM 1.5. It can irradiate an exposed area of either 150 mm x 150 mm with a uniformity of ±3 % up to 200 mm x 200 mm area with a uniformity of ±5 %.
Features +
- 1200 W benchtop solar simulator AM 1.5
- Global radiation similar to CIE 85 (Table 4)
- Radiation source: filtered metal halide global lamp
- Irradiance 1,050 W/m² • 290-3,000 nm at a distance of 340 mm
- Irradiance uniformity ±3 % on an area 150 mm x 150 mm
