Table Top Sun Simulator

Sunirad A-22 uses the latest generation of lamps (plasma lamps) dedicated to steady-state solar simulation. Its extreme spectral stability is unmatched by LED or xenon lamps.

This new generation allows for a class AAA system to operate 24/7, which is crucial for stabilization tests and ensuring system performance throughout the entire test duration. This new lamp system renders LED-based systems obsolete. Investing in a solar simulator is a long-term commitment, and acquiring an up-to-date system is essential to ensure the reliability of your tests.

Sunirad A-22 is the most competitively priced Class AAA solution worldwide. Solar technologies are essential for realizing the transition to renewable energy, and offering testing at a competitive price is our contribution to making the world greener.

Sunirad A-22 is certified to IEC 60904-9:2020, ASTM E927-10, and JIS C-8912 standards.

The equipment is built to provide easy access to the sample. The illumination unit is movable to ensure no impact or inadvertent movement that could disrupt sample connections. This approach is equivalent to systems using optical fiber to convey light.

Sunirad A-22 is compliant with the following tests:

• Maximum power determination (MPP) test IEC 61215-2 (MQT 02)
• Measurement of temperature coefficient IEC 61215-2 (MQT 04)
• Performance at STC IEC 61215-2 (MQT 06)
• Performance at low irradiance according to IEC 61215-2 (with neutral filter option) (MQT 07)
• Light soaking test IEC 61646 norm
• Stabilization IEC 61215-2 norm (MQT 19.1 and MQT 19.2)

Our Vision
We offer complete, high-performing, and practical solutions without hidden costs. With Lumartix's solution, you never change the bulb; you only replace the radio frequency part (LightTron) responsible for injecting energy into the bulb. This ingenious approach ensures no spectral modification over time. LightTron is seven times cheaper compared to xenon lamps and 20 times cheaper compared to LEDs, significantly reducing the system's maintenance costs.

Thermal Control
Steady-state solar simulation involves delivering a substantial amount of energy to the sample under test. Lumartix's range of simulators is engineered for full thermal control of the samples. Our sample holder is equipped with water cooling, coupled with a chiller unit, providing a temperature range between 10°C and 65°C.

Key Features

• Outstanding lifetime of the light emitter (over 40,000 hours), unprecedented for a 1 kW light source.
• Continuous illumination, especially well-suited for monitoring thin-film (Perovskite, OPV, and many more) and tandem solar cells (Si-Perovskite).
• Temporal light stability allowing excellent measurement reproducibility over a long duration.
• Spectrum Class A according to IEC60904-9:2020 ed.3 (full 300 - 1,200nm).
• Class AAA solution compliant with your budget.
• Beautiful, simple design; no filters or shutters needed as the lamp can be quickly restarted.
• Adjustable illumination to operate at partial sun equivalents (0.05 to 1.2 sun) without compromising lamp lifetime.
• Safety: mercury-free light source.
• Reduced cost of ownership and streamlined maintenance.
