Features:
This innovative Sun Simulator independently drives multiple LEDs at 19 individual wavelengths spaced over the spectrum from 400 nm to 1100 nm to ensure a spectral match meeting Class A certification. The independent control of each LED allows the user to tune the output to the specific requirements of the test. This adjustment can be done at the front panel for the entire spectrum or individual band adjustment. The user can adjust individual LED output through the USB port. These spectral matches can be saved as a preset value in the control instrument.
