Greenhouses
Growers of food plants find artificial light just as important as it is for flowering plants. GE’s specially-developed range of
horticultural lamps enable growers to use artificial lighting to improve the yield and quality of greenhouse crops and time growth
to meet market demands.
Light output and lumen maintenance on their own are not enough to create plant growth. Plants require a certain radiation level
to help with the photosynthesis that enables them to grow, and others factors such as day length also play an important part .
Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR), measured in micromole/sec, is essential for plant growth. Lucalox™ Photosynthesis
Lamps (PSL) are high pressure sodium lamps with a spectrum that gives the best possible PAR, with stable lumen and micromole
maintenance, in a greenhouse lighting regime.
Lucalox™ PSL lamps are available in 230V with 250W, 400W and 750W options, and in 400V with 600W, 750W and 1000W.
New to the range are the 600W 400V electronic single ended and 1000W 400V double ended products.
