PET - Model 60909 - Solar Reference Cell for Solar Simulator Calibration

SHARE

The Solar Reference cell from PET is designed for calibrating the irradiance of the solar simulators used for testing solar cells or panels. They can also be used (with supporting equipment) to measure the temporal stability and/or non-uniformity of the light beam of solar simulators.
