Reference Solar Cell
Our cells include digital and or analog outputs.
Reference solar cell. High quality solar reference cells. Enlitech uses unique optical filter technology to substantially reduce the spectral mismatch with the standard 20 mm x 20 mm si solar cell and unique optical filters it can be applicable to different. Because of the high demand on measurement systems for the pv industry solar reference cells are difficult to buy. A solar cell or photovoltaic cell is an electrical device that converts the energy of light directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect which is a physical and chemical phenomenon.
The sensor is a mono crystalline silicon solar cell having an area of2x2cm 4cm the back of the solar cell is attached to the device in such a way that a good heat transfer to the device housing is guaranteed. An integrated pt 100 rtd provides cell temperature measurement. It is a form of photoelectric cell defined as a device whose electrical characteristics such as current voltage or resistance vary when exposed to light. Our reference solar cell and meter is an integral part of solar simulator calibration and solar cell i v characterization.
The abet technologies solar reference cell is a precision instrument for the determination of solar simulator irradiance levels. The standard crystalline silicon reference cell is a high quality precision sensor for the determination of solar simulator irradiance levels. If a solar reference cell is constructed with typical pv cells glass encapsulant and backsheet the spectral and angular. Individual solar cell devices are often the.
Spectral response matching to specific pv technologies such as cdte are available. Rera uses the radboud university nijmegen pv measurement facility to calibrate the cells indoor. It consists of a readout device and a 2 x 2 cm calibrated solar cell made of monocrystalline silicon with a fused silica window. Being a solar cell measurement specialist rera solutions has developed various reference cells suited for different purposes.
The calibration is done against an established set of reference cells calibrated at nrel and fraunhofer ise. Reference cell responds to light from all angles but typically shows an increased reflectance and therefore a decreased efficiency for light that arrives at a glancing angle. The solar reference cell unit includes an encapsulated silicon cell mounted in a sealed aluminum housing.
