Horticultural LED lighting

Light source: high-efficacy red, white and blue LEDs from Osram. Aluminium housing. Innovative heat-sink design for efficient heat dissipation. 

Applications:

• INDUSTRY.3 and PlantaLux INTER / UPPER luminaires for greenhouse growers of various vegetable crops and flowers to supplement periods of low natural light
• The PHYTO and PlantaLux HOME series luminaires are designed for home use for providing house plants and seedlings with supplemental light.

Advantages:

• Energy consumption is 2–2.5 times lower compared to HPS lamps, with similar vegetation effect
• Relative radiation spectrum is tuned to the PAR curve
• Two wavelength peaks in the blue (445 nm) and red (660 nm) spectra show maximum absorption of light energy by chlorophyll (under DIN 5031) – suitable for all vegetation stages. The emission spectrum of HPS lamps is mainly concentrated in the yellow-green range but is fairly low in the blue range. With such light, plants stretch up high and become more brittle lacking green weight
• No special requirements for disposal
• No powerful thermal emission. PHYTO luminaires can be placed close to plants; it reduces total quantity of luminaires used and consumed power needed to achieve required irradiance
• No light degradation characteristic compared to HPS lamps; no need to replace them every 1–1.5 years.
