Solar simulator □100mm
XES-100S1 (A0)
The SAN-EI ELECTRIC XES-100S1 portable solar simulator delivers A+ rated performance (IEC 60904-9) with precise 1000W/m² output across a 100mm² area. Its 300W xenon lamp lasts 2500+ hours and supports multi-directional irradiation and optional filters. Featuring exclusive Arc Monitor alignment, this compact solution enables accurate sunlight simulation for PV testing, research, and quality control.
