PSE AG products

In certification laboratories for photovoltaic modules, steady-state solar simulators are mostly used for stabilization / light soaking tests (MQT 19) and hot-spot endurance tests (MQT 09) according to IEC 61215 and IEC 61730. An initial stabilization is required for all PV modules that undergo a standard test procedure. For the hot-spot endurance test (MQT 09), it is important that the operator has easy access to the front and back site of the module. During the test, it is necessary to shade one cell after each other to take infrared pictures, which requires good visibility of the entire back side. Our swiveling module holding system enables easy access to the front and back side of the module.

Our steady state solar simulators enable you to test and develop solar thermal collectors independent of weather and season, faster, more efficiently and more comprehensively than ever before. SORAS-ST6 is a turnkey product, delivered 100 % ready to go!

PSE’s high-precision outdoor trackers give you top-quality testing options. We offer two different tracking systems, the larger and more accurate Tracker P4 and the smaller Tracker P2. Our tracking systems can be combined with different measurement equipment to fulfill requirements of solar thermal collector and PV module test standards. Combined with our Heliosensor it is also possible to reach higher tracking accuracies required for testing concentrating solar technologies.
