FLIR Systems, Inc.

FLIR thermal cameras can be used for everything from quality control during the PV cell manufacturing process to PdM programs at solar installations. FLIR’s lock-in thermography gives quantitative measurements of I-V characteristics from localized shunts, and lets users calculate the reduction in cell efficiency and map saturation current density over the entire cell. Better quality control results in less downtime and improved performance, in turn boosting the viability of solar power as a major energy source.
