How does the LED grow light maintain the uniformity of light?

LED grow lights provide a reasonable light environment for grows, promote the growth and development of grows, and have certain requirements for the uniformity of light. Otherwise, there will be individual grows with poor growth, and even light will allow the grows to grow and develop normally or better.


This is needed to ensure the uniformity of LED grow lighting


First of all, we must know that if every grow is exposed to the same light, the illumination of the LED grow light must be uniform. The uniformity of LED grow light illumination can be divided into the uniformity of the chip distribution, the installation height and the distance distribution between the LED grow lights.

 

The chip distribution is based on the LED grow light supplement light grow characteristics. After the lamp bead ratio is obtained, how to intersect the chips is calculated, and finally distributed on the grow light package and COB panel according to a certain rule, so that each LED grow The light illuminates the main area with uniform light quality and light intensity distribution.

 

The arrangement of the distance between each LED grow light is mainly determined according to the light intensity. In addition, the installation height of the LED grow light must be considered. After comprehensive calculation, the distance distribution between the LED grow lights is obtained to ensure the large area growing light. Uniformity.

 

Therefore, the uniformity of LED grow light illumination is simply: make the light quality and light intensity distribution uniform in the middle and around the LED grow light, as well as the light quality and light intensity distribution at the intersection between adjacent lights and other illuminated areas.


The role of red and blue LED grow lights


1. Different wavelengths of light have different effects on grow photosynthesis. The light required for grow photosynthesis has a wavelength of about 400-700nm. 400-500nm (blue) light and 610-720nm (red) contribute the most to photosynthesis.

2. Blue (470nm) and red (630nm) light can just provide the light needed by grows.

3. Blue light can promote the growth of green leaves; red light can help blossom and fruit and prolong the flowering period.

4. The ratio of red and blue lamp beads of LED grow lights is generally between 4:1 and 9:1.

5. When using a grow lamp to supplement light, it is generally installed at a height of about 0.5 meters from the grow, and the daily light time is 12 to 16 hours.


LED grow light features


(1) Save electricity more than traditional grow lights;

(2) Low heat dissipation, reducing product failure rate;

(3) The waterproof performance reaches IP65, and the waterproof and anti-fog effect is better;

(4) The whole is made of aviation alloy aluminum, the surface is treated with bright steel, and the appearance is beautiful and anti-corrosion;

(5) The unique folding and hoisting design is more convenient and flexible, which makes it more space-saving and convenient during transportation and installation;

(6) The light-emitting angle is adjustable, the light effect is more uniform, energy-saving and more conducive to the growth of grows;

(7) The power supply adopts waterproof male and female plug connection, which is simple and safer to install;

(8) The ratio between red and blue light can be customized by customers to meet the required spectrum of grows;

(9) All material rings meet environmental protection requirements and do not contain harmful heavy metal substances such as mercury;

(10) Timing dimming, no need to invest too much manpower, higher efficiency.


Look at these for the quality assurance of LED grow lights


Output

This is one of the most important characteristics of LED grow lights, and it will affect grow yields. However, it is generally impossible to obtain 100% power all the time, and usually the final wattage is low.


spectrum

When using LED grow lights to grow grows, red, blue, infrared and ultraviolet are also important, so you have to stick to the ideal PAR value. Need to look for blue in the range of 440-470nm and red in the range of 610 to 720nm.


Heat dissipation

The average working time of LED grow lights is about 13 hours a day, so you need to make sure that they dissipate heat well, and try to use integrated die-cast aluminum alloy instead of fans or other plastic materials.


lens

A good-quality LED grow light will have an optical lens that can magnify or adjust the angle of light to provide about 25% of the nutrient penetration for grows.


Warranty

Look for LED grow lights with at least five years of warranty, because this is the guarantee given by powerful manufacturers. The ideal life of LED grow lights is 50,000 hours, which is about 10 years. However, considering various factors, the actual working life will be about 5 years, so a 5-year warranty is the best choice.
