Helux high power systems add spectrum flexibility to horticultural fixtures, allowing for the implementation of custom spectra recipes that can change over the grow cycle, for different plants or even on a daily cycle.

With the design of a custom LED module optimized for the APT controllers and the desired spectra and intensities, calibrated outputs can be achieved in a simple and flexible architecture.


Stadium Lights: Simplify High Intensity Color Control

Helux high power systems have no perceivable flicker and are ideal for high intensity solutions that will be used to project light on people and surfaces on camera. Each color channel can be controlled independently from a central management system or calibrated configurations can be saved locally.

With the design of a custom LED module optimized for the APT controllers, thermal issues in the fixtures can be minimized and the overall system can maximize efficiency.
