Spi-EL-HR-M™ Electroluminescence Cell Tester
High Resolution Inspection for Solar Cells

T

he Spi-EL-HR-M is a stand-alone bench top tester that uses
electroluminescence (EL) to identify microcracks and other physical

defects in solar cells. The tester utilizes cooled near-infrared CCD camera
technology to image each solar cell with a resolution as fine as 170µm per
pixel. Capture time is adjustable between 10ms to 10 seconds.
The unique design makes electroluminescent solar cell inspection simple:
open the drawer, place the solar cell inside and close the drawer.
The system automatically contacts the solar cell, applies power, and
acquires a high resolution electroluminescent image. The EL-HR-M
is an ideal tester for off-line production or for R&D environments
where periodic testing is required.
