supplemental greenhouse lighting. All systems offer modularity, with improved spectral flexibility, point source density and optical power delivery. With our multiple “light engine” designs, lighting systems of virtually any size and required light output can be created.
The high efficiency and low energy consumption of ORBITEC’s LED lighting systems typically translate to a 60% reduction in energy costs. Other benefits of LED lighting over other existing systems (such as fluorescent and metal halide) include:
- Orders of magnitude less degradation of light quantity and quality with aging
- No ballasts, pressurized bulbs, mercury or other hazardous chemicals
- Lightweight, small size
- Lower radiant heat load
- Lower power consumption
- Longer life expectancy
- No required maintenance or light bulb changes
