Special LED Overheat Protection

Microprocessor_400x224

LEDs are protected by monitoring the operating states of the LED diodes while monitoring the lightbar temperature. The microprocessor-controlled automatic brightness reduction and powerful heat sink work together to provide efficient and safe operation with maximum light output.

FEATURES:

  • Homogeneous, brilliant and very bright light achieved  through a balanced mix of selected high-power LEDs in natural colors (CRI> 95, white LEDs 150 lm/W)
  • Super-smooth dimming with GHL Perfect Dimming Techology®
  • 120° Uniforml wide light distribution
  • Energy efficiency and long life through sophisticated thermal management (at least 60,000 operating hours)
  • When used with the GHL ProfiLux Aquarium Controller the Lightbar 2 becomes a fully controllable LED fixture with light dimming and color blending functionality
  • Water-temperature-dependent downward temperature control (light is dimmed if water gets too warm).
  • Full undimmed Light power when operated without the ProfiLux Controller (all LEDs light up to 100%)
  • Energy saving of approx. 50% compared to traditional LED lighting
  • 24V Operation
