我们对生态毒理的新大炮领导泛光灯at theReef SystemsAquarama Booth是一个非常令人惊喜的惊喜。尽管使用Multichip LED套件以相同的100瓦光额定评分,但Cannon LED泛光灯是完全不同的动物。
从微小的多芯片和超紧束角的高度浓缩光源的大炮式外形量已经一去不复返了。大炮LED泛光灯的所有内容都不同于散热器和外形,到Multichip LED,驱动器和光线散布镜头。泛光灯大炮唯一熟悉的是100瓦的功率等级。
The heatsink and body of the Cannon LED Floodlight is spread out into a mushroom shape with a much thinner profile. The 100 watt LED multichip LED is now 2 inches across instead of one inch across, creating light source that has an emitter four times the surface area. The supporting lens is interchangeable between 60 and 90 degrees with a broad spread that is much more uniform than what we’ve come to expect from the ‘old school’ cannon LED.
The Inventronics driver powering the whole package is mounted neatly above the heatsink but below the articulating mounting bracket, accepting 100 to 277volts for the input with a degree of controllability that will be elaborated on in the future.
The Cannon LED Floodlights on display by Reef Systems were mounted on a very deep reef tank, with four units easily penetrating all the way to the bottom with incredibly good color mixing. If we had to eyeball it we’d estimate that the PAR produced by the 400 watts of Cannon Floodlighting was probably around 150 to 200 mols/m2/s at the very bottom but we actually had Seneye do some tests on which we’ll be reporting later.
The completely waterproof Cannon LED Floodlights can be completely hosed down and are still aimed for the public aquarium and very large displays but the broader spread is sure to appeal to plenty of large tank owners and coral growing operations. When they are released the floodlights will not replace the ubiquitous Cannon LED spotlights but they are expected to cost a wee bit more, but we’ll stay on top of all the details of Ecoxotic’s cool new piece of the sun.
