Solar Spectral Analysis System

Solar Spectral Analysis Systems

The STN-SolarRad (300-1100nm) and STN-SolarRad-DSR (300-1700nm) spectrometer configurations are the perfect tools for making solar irradiance measurements of all kinds. They are popular tools for measuring solar simulators and artificial lighting for various solar energy, biological, and horticultural applications.

The instruments are NIST calibrated to measure the spectral irradiance in units of watts per meter squared over the wavelength range in nanometers.

Depends on the configuration, these systems could capture a complete UV-VIS-NIR irradiance spectrum all in real time.

These preconfigured solar system are permanently aligned and built with all the proper accessories, slit sizes, and calibrations that you may need and have packaged them into one system. You can also choose from a list of additional accessories and features to add to your system.

Solar Radiometer System - STN-SolarRad (300-1100 nm)

This is the most popular configuration. The STN-SolarRad features everything needed to perform light measurements over the 300-1100nm wavelength range (with deep UV options available). At the heart of the system is the BLACK-Comet-CXR-SR concave grating spectrometer featuring a UV enhanced CCD detector.

Customizations can be made.

Dual-Radiometer System - STN-SolarRad-DSR (300 - 1700nm)

The SolarRad-DSR  is a dual channel spectrometer system configured for wide range solar spectral irradiance measurements from 300-1700nm. This configuration combines a BLACK-Comet or BLUE-Wave spectrometer with a DWARF-Star NIR instrument to capture a complete UV-VIS-NIR irradiance spectrum all in real time!

Customizations can be made.
