OAI’s Trisol™ Class AAA, Standard Solar Simulator, is available in a variety of models and 
aperture sizes (52 x 52mm, 100x100mm, 156 x 156mm, 208 x 208mm, and 300 x 300mm). With the 
use of advanced uniform beam optics, which includes proprietary coated mirrors, filters, and a 
beam uniformity integrator, OAI’s solar simulator delivers highly accurate, collimated beams 
with the longest working distances. All of OAI’s Solar Simulators are certified to ASTM E927-05, 
IEC 60904-9 2007, and JIS C 8912 standards for Class AAA performance (Spectral Match 400 – 1100nm wavelength in 100nm bandwidth increments, Non-Uniformity, and Temporal Instability).
 Available options include  upgrades in the  spectral match using OAI’s proprietary filters for
 performance testing Dye Sensitized (DSSC), Organic (OPV), Concentrated Photovoltaic (CPV)
 and Multi-junction GaAs based solar cells. OAI’s simulator filters are designed to Air Mass 1.5
 Global (AM 1.5G) specifications but other air mass filters are also available. Without com
promising Class A spectral match, the beam intensity can be adjusted from 0.8 – 1.1 Suns by
 using the one-touch button.
 OAI’s Solar Simulators come in standard configurations with the adjustable power mode, 
but can be upgraded to include both constant power or constant intensity operations. A variable 
power supply allows the beam intensity range to be from 0 suns to 1.1 suns. In the constant in
tensity mode, lamp power automatically adjusts to maintain a constant 1 Sun Intensity  as lamp 
power starts to  degrade  over time. 
All of OAI’s solar simulators are easily integrated with OAI’s IV Tester and test fixtures. However, 
the stand-alone solar simulator can be adapted to virtually any IV tester.Trisol™ Class AAA Standard Solar Simulator

 Applications: 
Trisol Solar Simulators are used in many applications including Photovoltaic, Photochemistry, Photobiology, and Environment 
Exposure Testing. Some of the key applications include: solar cell light soaking, solar cell IV Testing, performance measurement, 
sun screen efficacy, measurement of the biological effects of solar radiation, and studying of the effects of solar irradiance 
on various materials. The chart below demonstrates solar simulator applications for various types of cells.
