This solar simulator is based on a Fresnel lens to collimate the light beam from the 1.6kW Xe ozone-free arc lamp source, resulting in highly collimated illumination of the target spot. The spectral distribution of the xenon light source, along with the use of specially calibrated air mass filters, closely simulates the sun’s true spectral distribution in various conditions on Earth.

Works best with 1 Sun AM1.5D filters (not included). Other AM filters are available but they may change the target size achievable. Contact a Sciencetech technical sales representative for details.

Target: up to 20 cm (8") diameter (depends on required irradiance level)
Collimation: 0.7° half angle (70% of irradiance is within)
Non-uniformity: Class B
Lamp: 1.6kW ozone-free Xe short arc
Lamp Housing: air cooled
Illumination Direction: horizontal*
Power Supply: 611-1.6k adjustable touchscreen supply
Filter Mounting: for one 7.6 × 7.6 cm (3" × 3") filter (not included)

Includes: 20 cm (8") diameter UV transmitting Fresnel lens, intensity mask to produce class B (<5%) non-uniformity up to 8" diameter, igniter.

200-240 VAC input, 12.1-9.0A, 50/60Hz, Fused 15A
requires 1 IEC 60320 C19 power cable

Optional accessories: vertical beam turning unit, light intensity stabilizer, integrated motorized shutter

* Systems can be built for downfacing operation if specified at time of order

Every time the illumination target size of a Fully Reflective Solar Simulator changes, the reflective mirrors inside the solar simulator that direct the light from the source to the target need to be refocused. Although this can be performed manually, the procedure is a hassle should the user need to change the target spot size frequently. The solar simulator would need to be shut down and have each internal mirror re-adjusted to support a different focal spot size. With this variable focus option re-adjusting the internal mirrors of the solar simulator is performed through a single knob without having to shutdown the solar simulator. This feature can also be used to vary illumination intensity by spreading the light over a larger area or concentrating the light into a smaller area.
