Innovations in Optics, Inc. [IOI] is pleased to announce that LumiSun-50, its state-of-the-art LED solar simulator, is a Prism Awards Finalist for 2025. LumiSun-50 is a high-value, 52mm x 52mm, IEC 60904-9 Ed. 3.0 2020-09 Class A+A+A+ benchtop LED solar simulator providing up to 1.2 Suns with superior spectral deviation and spectral coverage. Affordably priced, it is ideal for research, development, testing, and numerous applications involving multispectral and hyperspectral illumination.
LumiSun-50’s (patent pending) technology provides the highest possible accuracy, better than Class A+ temporal instability, safety, flexibility in wavelength control, and lower cost of ownership. In addition, LumiSun-50 exceeds Class A+ non-uniformity, not only for all 35 wavelengths, but, uniquely, for each wavelength individually, enabling better and faster research, development, and testing in support of ongoing green initiatives.
Unlike bulky, expensive, environmentally unfriendly lamp-based units, LumiSun-50 employs a multi-wavelength array of long lifetime LEDs that are driven independently and can be user-controlled to set spectra. User-friendly operation is supported by advanced GUI and remote control is enabled by an RS-485 interface. The LED light source is thermoelectrically cooled and contained within an air-cooled housing that can rotate the angle of the illumination plane. The optimal working distance is adjusted by converging a pair of red dots from integrated laser pointers.
LumiSun-50 is an excellent choice for measuring the efficiency and spectral response of PV cells, materials degradation studies, photochemistry, photodynamic therapy research, weathering tests, and other sunlight research studies.
