The Sciencetech AX-LightLine series of fiberised solar simulators are a revolution in the solar simulator industry. With the LightLine you can direct the Class AAA solar light anywhere you wish with the standard 4-foot fiber.
Classic designs for solar simulators require you to bring your sample to the solar simulator. Now you can bring the solar simulator to your sample. The LightLine solar simulators come standard with a touchscreen power supply, integrated shutter, and exposure controller.
This unique designe alowed for solar light to be easily integrated with a glove box without mounting the entire solar simulator in the glove box, saving space and adding flexibility. The standard 4-foot-long fiber makes the simulator ideal for doing spot checks of devices on manufacturing lines or in dedicated setups that can’t accommodate a bulky solar simulator.
The Lightline includes space for fitting one internal accessory. Options are a motorized, 6-position filter wheel, with a variety of spectral or neutral density filters that can be supplied. Or a manual or motorized attenuation system that provides continuous control over intensity at the target from 10-100%. Internal accessories must be selected at the time of order and cannot be added at a later time.
The LightLine is availabe in three different models:
AX-100, AX-200 and AX-400 which offer flexibility on target size and flexibility for illumination intensity from Class AAA illumination up to 50mm square and intensity up to 18 Suns.
