Reference Solar Cell and Meter
Reads calibrated sun irradiance and temperature
Easily integrated with I-V Test Station
The Reference Cell, which is an integral part of solar simulator
calibration and solar cell I-V characterization, consists of a
readout device and a 2 x 2 cm calibrated solar cell made of
monocrystaline silicon. The cell is also equipped with a
thermocouple assembled in accordance with IEC 60904-2. The
Reference Cell comes with calibration data taken by NREL, on an
accompanying certificate. It reads solar simulator irradiance in
"sun" units; one sun is equal to 1000 W/m2 at 25 °C and Airmass
1.5 Global Reference. This tool's primary use is the testing of
photovoltaic cells under standard conditions. The Readout Meter
includes two BNC connectors for analog outputs for the sun
irradiance and the temperature.
