Adura launches LED light engines optimized for horticultural lighting fixtures

Light-engine manufacturer Adura has announced two new modular LED light engines that specifically target horticultural solid-state lighting (SSL) applications. The finished modules include LEDs, optics, and thermal elements that enable integration in passively-cooled luminaires. The modules mix phosphor-converted white LED and red LEDs to deliver high levels of photosynthetic photon flux (PPF). Adura's LED light engines are engineered for horticultural lighting, with energy peaks in the blue and red regions that optimize photosynthesis in plants. The SinkPad II technology and heat sink used on the modules will enable passively-cooled luminaires.
