The power generation capacity of a photovoltaic power station cannot be judged solely by the nominal value of the back panel, nor can it be judged solely based on experience. As component power levels continue to rise, string voltage levels move towards 1500V, and power station scales expand from rooftop distributed to large-scale mountain and desert bases, on-site power testing is shifting from "sampling inspection" to a key link in "acceptance, operation and maintenance, trading, and evaluation". In the past, many projects relied solely on nameplate parameters to estimate power generation. When encountering fluctuations in lighting, temperature changes, component attenuation, or string mismatch, the actual power generation capacity was often difficult to quantify. The portable IV curve tester has therefore become an important tool for quality control in photovoltaic power plants. In the current market, brands such as Shanghai LAILX, Gudewei, Jinlang, Huawei, Sunac Power, Fluke, etc. are participating in the photovoltaic testing ecosystem from different dimensions. However, from the perspective of "on-site string level IV curve testing", Shanghai LAILX LX-PV32 is closer to the real needs of power station acceptance, operation and maintenance inspection, and third-party testing.

The Shanghai LAILX LX-PV32 portable IV tester is designed for 1500V photovoltaic string systems and supports 1500V/20A specifications, covering power detection needs from single components to strings. It can quickly collect IV and PV curves under natural lighting conditions, and output key parameters such as short-circuit current, open circuit voltage, peak power, peak power point voltage and current, fill factor, conversion efficiency, series resistance, and parallel resistance. More importantly, it does not simply record voltage and current, but synchronously collects on-site data such as irradiance, ambient temperature, and component temperature, combined with STC standard operating conditions conversion, to help determine whether the actual power generation performance of the component meets expectations.

In on-site operations, LX-PV32 has significant advantages in portability and operational efficiency. The device adopts a 6.5-inch color LCD display screen, which is visible under sunlight and supports touch screen and keyboard operation, suitable for outdoor strong light environments. The host and irradiation probe can be wirelessly connected through Bluetooth or serial port, with a communication distance of up to about 100 meters, reducing on-site wiring troubles. The device can store over 2000 test waveforms and supports SD card expansion. Test data can be exported to PC software for curve comparison, report generation, and project review. For power plant projects that require batch testing, the ability to store and analyze data immediately after testing can significantly reduce data organization costs.

LX-PV32 is also equipped with a patented probe box and temperature probe mounting bracket, making it easy to quickly fix the sensor on the component back panel; Partial configurations support barcode scanning function, which can achieve intelligent recognition of components and improve on-site inspection management efficiency. The device is equipped with a large capacity replaceable lithium-ion battery, supports AC/DC adapter power supply, and is suitable for long-term outdoor operations. The voltage range covers 10V to 1500V, the current range covers 0.01 to 20A, and the maximum power testing range can reach 50W to 30kW, which can meet the testing needs of mainstream photovoltaic string.

In contrast, companies such as Goodway, Jinlang, Huawei, and Sunac are more known for their inverters, energy storage systems, and digital solutions for power plants, while Fluke has a broad understanding in the field of General Electric testing. But if we focus on the specific scenario of "portable string IV curve testing, on-site STC power conversion, irradiation and temperature synchronous acquisition", the product form of LX-PV32 is more complete and the application path is more direct. For power plant construction units, operation and maintenance teams, quality inspection agencies, and research institutions, it is not simply a replacement for manual recording, but rather a promotion of component power generation performance from "estimation" to "measurability, comparability, and traceability".
