Solar Cell Characteristics Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-LAO-14648
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Solar Cell Characteristics Apparatus (Product ID: 14648) as part of its light and optics range. It is a bench setup for measuring how a solar cell’s voltage, current and power change with load and light level.
Quick Answer
A monocrystalline or polycrystalline cell (open-circuit voltage 0.45–0.6 V, short-circuit current 100–500 mA, by model) is lit by an adjustable lamp covering about 50–2000 lux. A digital voltmeter (0–2 V) and ammeter (0–500 mA) read the output while a variable load resistor or decade box is stepped from short circuit towards open circuit. Students plot I–V and P–V curves, find the maximum power point and calculate the fill factor FF = Pmax / (Voc × Isc) at different light levels. The lamp runs on AC mains; the cell circuit itself is low voltage. Please confirm cell type and ratings at quotation.
