The ontogenesis of light-emitting diode lighting for greenhouse gardening is constantly arise . The Dutch Powerhouse Monarch from Oreon was introduced exactly one year ago at Fruit Logistica in Berlin with a weak output of 3100 µmol / s.
gross sales Director Jan Mol : “ More than 12 years ago we were the first to allow a commercial greenhouse undertaking with water cool down light-emitting diode lights . Last year , we launched the first 1000W LED mending . Thanks to the water - cooling technology , we can not only get an high light output , but we also guarantee a logical light yield over a longer period of time . Our light-emitting diode fixtures have a long lifespan : L90 B05 - 50,000 hour , which intend that a water cool top fixture can retain more than 90 % of its promiscuous production in at least 95 % of the fixtures after 50,000 hours . ”
Custom - made“Every greenhouse , every cultivator , every cultivation scheme and wakeful requirement is different . In addition , the crop , grow expanse and height of the greenhouse influence the telephone number of fixture and thus the investment . you’re able to not make one standard lighting plan , everything is usance made . That is why we can now offer 3 variants of the Monarch , ” says Jan Mol .
For crop that require high light intensities , such as blush wine and hemp , the new high-pitched efficiency variant with 3700 µmol / s is suitable . It has a narrow-minded beam radiation of 120 ° and can therefore also be used in high - tech greenhouse , for wampum as example . Thanks to the high-pitched light output , few fixedness are needed and due to the very high efficiency , substantial deliverance can be made on energy costs .
Narrow beamNo two situations are the same . That is why there is now also a narrow beam version with a lower output ( 3471 µmol / s ) and efficiency ( 3.4 µmol / J ) . The grower can decide whether he is going for a lower one - off investment or a saving in energy costs in the longer term .
The Monarch with wide beam oculus ( 3506 µmol / s and 3.5 µmol / J ) is suitable for the light of high wire crops such as love apple and cucumbers . The crop grows closer to the top of the nursery and therefore a wide-cut radiation ( 140 ° ) is desired to equally illuminate the largest surface as possible . This Monarch is also a good option for traditional lower greenhouses . Since it is a 1000W LED fixture , traditional HPS inflammation can be supercede one - on - one ( using the same cabling ) .
