LumiSolar Mobile

Electroluminescence (EL) mobile inspection equipment for solar cells and modules

LumiSolarMobile

Portable electoluminescence inspection device

The LumiSolarMobile system is a multi-purpose electroluminescence inspection system for solar cells and solar modules. Micro-cracks, cell failures, inhomogeneities, and other defects which are extremely difficult to detect visually can be detected clearly using LumiSolarMobile. The LumiSolarMobile system is a lightweight and portable device that allows quick mounting and easy transport.

Successfully tested on various Solar Module types

  • Monocrystalline Silicon (mono-Si)
  • Amorphous Silicon (aSi)
  • Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS)
  • Heterojunction with Intrinsic Thin Layer (HIT)
  • Polycrystalline Silicon (poly-Si)
  • Copper Indium Sulfide (CIS)
  • Cadmium Telluride (CdTe)

Inspection capabilities:

  • Shunt detection
  • Dead cells
  • Broken cells

LumiSolarMobile software

Camera control and data set visualisation

The LumiSolarMobile software controls the camera and visualizes the data sets. The program can generate intensity profiles from the 16bit high dynamic range image data. Basic picture manipulation procedures are included in the software. Dimension measurements of artefacts are possible following calibration as well as remote control of power supply
