The 94123A is the Sol3A Class AAA Solar Simulator with a 1600 Watt Xenon source and 12 x 12 in. illuminated area.


All Oriel Sol3A simulators are certified to IEC 60904-9 Edition 2 (2007), JIS C 8912, and ASTM E 927-05 standards for Spectral Match, Non-Uniformity of Irradiance, and Temporal Instability of Irradiance. By convention, Class AAA is reported with the first letter representing Spectral performance, the second letter Uniformity of Irradiance, and the third letter Temporal Stability. The Oriel Sol3A simulators all use a single lamp design to meet not one or two, but all three performance criteria without compromising the 1 Sun output power, providing true Class AAA performance. A Variable aperture accessory provides user the ability to vary the illumination on Sol3A simulators without adjusting the power supply. The range of attenuation is infinitely variable from 0.1 - 1Sun. The Oriel Sol3A uses a black non-reflective finish to minimize stray light and incorporates captive screws for all panels requiring user access to facilitate lamp replacement, alignment, and filter changes. Safety interlocks prevent inadvertent exposure to UV light. The Oriel Sol3A rugged design is backed by the Newport Corporation's world wide organization.
