Description : The Solar Simulator SSX-50 is a high-precision AAA class photovoltaic characterization system designed to simulate solar radiation under standard AM 1.5G conditions. It provides a spectral range of 300–1200 nm with high irradiance (~1500 W/m²) and excellent spatial uniformity, spectral match, and temporal stability as per IEC standards. The system is equipped with microprocessor-controlled power supply, LCD interface, and safety interlocks. Integrated accessories including IV measurement software, calibrated reference cell, vacuum stage, and source meter enable accurate current-voltage (I–V) characterization of solar cells and materials. It is widely used in photovoltaic research, material characterization, and renewable energy applications.
