Apparatus and methods for testing the thermal endurance of a glass substrate of a photovoltaic module are provided. The apparatus generally includes, in one embodiment, a testing chamber defining an interior space having an interior atmosphere. A refrigeration unit is operably positioned with the testing chamber to control the interior atmosphere's temperature. A mounting system is positioned within the interior space of the testing chamber and configured to hold the photovoltaic module while exposing the glass substrate of the photovoltaic module. An edge cooling system is positioned in relation to the mounting system such that the photovoltaic module held by the mounting system has a first side edge in contact with the edge cooling system. A light system is also positioned within the interior space of the testing chamber to illuminate the glass substrate of the photovoltaic module. |
