With the introduction of the SUNlike platform a LED sun simulator is available fpr the PV market. It brings many advantages and new possibilities into cell and panel testing.
SUNlike was able created a LED sun simulator for the solar industries.It utilizes the advantages of LED technology for PV production. To match the sun light FUTURELED developed LED in regards to required wavelength and power to generate a smooth simulation spectrum. The goal of a AAA light source well reached and the norm is over performed by, in some instances, over ten times.
As LED provide advantages in power consumption and life time a main achievement is high repetition rate with can be as fast as 0,5 sec as LED don’t need recharging.
The SUNlike platform can be set up with 7 to 35 different wavelengths, according to the required match of A 1.5 (G). The SUNlike platform includes LED, optics, thermal management and the required electronics. The software provides an easy access to each LED channel, overall brightness and flash times.
Utilization as inline light source or CW is possible. Due to the numbers of channels the spectrum can be modified for different light scenarios.
SUNlike innovative sun simulation technology provides the next step for cell and module testing. It can help manufacturers to maximize revenue on their production lines while gaining more control over the flash process.
