Modular Artificial Solar Source Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-EELE-11273
Quick Answer: The Modular Artificial Solar Source uses 6 double-envelope halogen lamps of 1000 W each, set in parabolic aluminium mirrors, to produce a beam whose spectrum resembles sunlight.
Mirrors diffuse part of the radiation and reflect the rest into a beam parallel to the parabola axis.
In the 0.4 to 2.2 micrometre band, radiative power is about 76% for the source against about 90% for the sun.

About This Product
The source replaces natural sunlight in solar experiments: each parabolic mirror diffuses part of the halogen radiation and reflects the rest into a beam parallel to its axis. Its spectral distribution has been compared with that of the sun, and the similarity is quite good across the 0.4 to 2.2 micrometre band.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many lamps does the Modular Artificial Solar Source have?
Six double-envelope halogen lamps of 1000 W each, running on 220/380 V, 50 Hz, 3-phase, with a lamp life of 2000 hours.
How close is its spectrum to sunlight?
In the 0.4 to 2.2 micrometre wavelength range, the radiative power is about 76% for the artificial source and about 90% for the sun, so the similarity is quite good.
What do the mirrors do?
The parabolic mirrors, made of special surface aluminium, diffuse part of the radiation they receive and reflect the rest into a beam parallel to the axis of the parabola.
