Data logger optimises solar cell
production
A temperature profiling system based on the new Q18 data logger enables solar cell manufacturers to improve production quality and throughput.
In photovoltaic solar cell production the efficiency of the final product is known to be adversely affected if the contact firing process is not carefully controlled Temperature variations across the width of the furnace or nonoptimal time/temperature curves will affect the contact resistance and hence the final quality of the cell

Logger is made for process profiling
Data logger is specially designed to profile all the thermal processes found in the electronics assembly industry.
Datapaq's temperature profiling system can help manufacturers to: ensure their products meet specifications; save time and money setting up the furnace; maximise product throughput; accurately monitor the contact firing process without disrupting normal production; and obtain optimal cell fill factors.
At the heart of a Datapaq system is the new Q18 data logger.
Datapaq has used the most advanced technology available to ensure optimal performance - it's now the most powerful, flexible and robust temperature data logger available.
The Q18 takes readings at a faster speed, finer resolution and greater accuracy than has previously ever been available within the temperature profiling industry.
Available with six or 10 channels, the Q18 has an accuracy of +/-0.5C and can store up to 18,000 readings per channel.
