Germany-based Wavelabs Photo voltaic Metrology Methods GmbH has launched two new photo voltaic simulators for high-efficiency cell testing, one to be used in manufacturing strains, and one to be used in analysis laboratories. Just like the module testing gear that Wavelabs launched earlier this week, the cell testing gear is predicated on its light-emitting diode (LED) flasher know-how.
The Sinus-360 PRO is designed to be quick sufficient for use in line of cell producers. This was performed to check high-efficiency photo voltaic cell applied sciences, resembling passivated emitter rear contact (PERC), heterojunction (HJT), and tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon).
The dimensions of the illumination space is 260 mm x 260 mm, which implies it may accommodate newer, bigger cell sizes. It has nineteen individually managed LED channels with optionally available rear flasher, electroluminescence and infrared imaging modules, enabling producers to run a number of inspection protocols on a single, small-footprint machine.
The analysis lab-sized, Sinus-360 Superior, has twenty-seven individually managed LED channels, and is optimized to check perovskite-silicon tandem cells. A prototype has been utilized by researchers on the photo voltaic cell calibration laboratory (CalTec) on the Institute for Photo voltaic Power Analysis Hamelin in Germany since 2022.
“[It] offers us the best doable freedom to regulate the spectral distribution of the photo voltaic simulator. As well as, we’re prepared for measurements of tandem photo voltaic cells, which can develop into extra essential sooner or later and whose measurement requires an adjustment of the irradiance of the person sub-cells,” stated Karsten Bothe, head of CalTec in an announcement.
Sinus-360 Superior has been chosen because the Intersolar Award 2023 winner on the Munch-based Intersolar exhibition.
