Key Features of IEC 61215 MQT10 UV Preconditioning Test Chamber
Strict Standard Compliance — Fully complies with IEC 61215-2 (MQT 10), IEC 61730, and IEC 61646 UV preconditioning test requirements.
Precise Spectrum Control — Delivers a stable UVA/UVB/UVC ratio (UVC < 0.1%, UVB 3%–10%, UVA 90%–97%) to reach the target cumulative dose of 15 kWh/m² (320–400 nm) and 7.5 kWh/m² (280–320 nm).
Advanced Temperature Regulation — Maintains ambient-to-90°C ±2°C chamber temperature and 35–80°C Black Panel Temperature (BPT), with continuous automatic sensor feedback.
Large Capacity & Custom Dimensions — Standard specimen holder accommodates 1400 × 2400 mm (W×H), holding 2/4/6+ modules per cycle; custom-engineered racks available for irregular or oversized panels.
Online UV Intensity Monitoring — Integrated radiometer system continuously measures UV intensity and auto-calculates cumulative exposure dosage, with maximum UV irradiance capped at < 250 W/m².
Full-Coverage UV Exposure Design — Lamp layout and specimen positioning are engineered to eliminate shadowing and edge under-exposure, ensuring every module receives uniform irradiance across its entire surface.
Why UV Preconditioning Is Critical for PV Modules
According to IEC 61215 MQT 10, PV modules must undergo a minimum total UV exposure of 15 kWh/m² before entering thermal cycling (MQT 11) or humidity-freeze testing (MQT 12). This process identifies susceptible polymer materials — such as backsheet yellowing, delamination, or EVA discoloration — that could otherwise lead to field failures in solar power plants after years of outdoor exposure.

IEC 61215 MQT10 UV Preconditioning Test Chamber Details

UV Lamp Array 20 fluorescent UVA lamps + 10 UVB lamps generate a stable, uniform spectrum (UVA 90–97%, UVB 3–10%, UVC < 0.1%) with maximum UV irradiance controlled below 250 W/m², precisely matching IEC 61215 MQT10 dosage requirements for repeatable degradation testing. | 
Programmable Touchscreen Controller
A color LCD touch interface enables multi-segment programming of UV dosage, chamber temperature, and Black Panel Temperature (35–80°C), with real-time monitoring, data logging, and automatic dosage calculation for unattended long-duration test cycles. |

SUS304 Stainless Steel Interior The interior chamber lining uses corrosion-resistant SUS304 stainless steel, paired with a coated steel-plate exterior, to withstand continuous high-intensity UV and heat exposure — reducing long-term maintenance and extending equipment service life. | 
Insulation & Safety Protection System Polyurethane foam and insulation cotton maintain stable chamber temperature up to 90°C ±2°C, while built-in over-temperature protection and a UV radiation door lock safeguard operators and specimens throughout the test cycle. |
IEC 61215 MQT10 UV Preconditioning Test Chamber — Custom-Engineered for Your PV Module
PV modules vary widely in format — standard rectangular, large utility-scale, BIPV, flexible/curved, and irregular shapes. A one-size-fits-all chamber often causes uneven UV exposure, edge shadowing, and unreliable dosage — compromising IEC 61215 test validity.
Custom Chamber Dimensions — Sized to fit your largest module footprint, from lab coupons to full-size panels.
Adjustable, Modular Racks — Multi-tier or tilt-angle fixtures securely hold rectangular, trapezoidal, curved, or irregular modules.
Optimized Lamp Layout — UVA/UVB spacing recalculated per configuration for uniform irradiance across the full surface, including edges and corners — no shadowing or hotspots.
Multi-Point Radiometer Placement — Extra sensor points for larger or irregular layouts, verifying full-dose coverage in every zone.
Batch Testing Configurations — Racks engineered to test multiple panels (2/4/6+) simultaneously with consistent dosage and temperature.
Our engineers work from your module drawings or dimensions to design a chamber that ensures uniform UV exposure across the entire surface — helping you avoid retesting and delivering results that hold up to certification scrutiny.
