Detail Specifications

LED
Each 12” section of hood has 25-Luxeon 3 Watt LED’s for a total of 75Watts/Foot. The LEDs are mounted 5 LEDs/circuit board. If one LED fails than the 5 LED board needs to be replaced. This circuit board replacement is designed to be performed in the field if needed.

The LEDs can be set up for either a maximum color temperature of 20K or 12K at time of order.

During Daylight all LED’s including Night Lights are on. Each of the four LED’s can be independently dimmed from 0-100%.

Note: The Actinic Blue LED’s produce more Par than the Full Spectrum White LED’s. For the most Par use the 20K LED version. (Opposite of Metal Halide).

Power Supply
The fixture has an 8’ cable with quick disconnect for each required power supply. This cable can not be extended beyond 8’. The power supply cable comes off the back left hand side of fixture. It does not come out of the end. The input is 60/50Hz with selectable voltage of 120V or 230V. All power in the hood is 12V DC. The power supply is powder coated black. The power supply is cooled via a fan. Caution: Water can enter power supply through cooling fan. Mount via wall mounting holes or set on dry surface. Dimensions: 6.75”L x 6.25”W x 3.75” H

Fixture Cooling
Air needs to circulate through the fixture. If mounting in canopy, ensure there is air flow to the fans on each end of the fixture. The control board has a thermometer on board which will turn off the fixture if the LED’s get too hot. This will happen prior to any damage to the LED’s. The LCD will display a message stating the fixture became too hot. If this happens improve the air flow to the fans.

Mounting
The fixture can be mounted with, mounting feet which are supplied on tank, supplied eye hooks, or with optional pendant hanging kit. It is preferred to mount in the open air, but mounting inside canopy is fine as long as adequate ventilation is available to the fans. The fixture itself should always be cool or warm to the touch, not hot like Metal Halide or fluorescent fixtures.


Control Board/LCD Display
All units include the control board with LCD input module. The LCD display has a step through menu to program the Auto settings. There is also a manual mode to bypass the auto setting to temporarily adjust light output of each of the LED strings. (This feature is to observe the tank under different color variations like 6.5k or actinic blue only). The only way to interface to the control board is through the LCD push button display.
