AUSTIN, TEXAS - LED grow light designer-manufacturer Illumitex has announced the launch of PowerHarvest W, a fixture that casts a wide-distribution light beam.
Illumitex designs and builds made-in-the-USA LED light fixtures for greenhouses and controlled environment agriculture, offering energy-efficient lighting specifically tuned to the photosynthetic and photomorphogenic needs of plants.
PowerHarvest W LED grow lights are offered with an optional wireless dimming control system for precision growing, with software — Greenhouse Virtual Panel. The controls allow growers to monitor and control dimming, scheduling, on/off and other options from mobile or desktop devices.
Additionally, Illumitex has announced a new naming convention for its PowerHarvest fixtures. The PowerHarvest 10 Series emits a photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) of 1040 µmol/second (and uses 600W of power), while the PowerHarvest 5 Series (300W) emits a PPF of 520 µmol/second. The fixture is further designated by a W for wide beam angle.
