The Aurora LEC 315W complete luminaire, from Lumatek, is a complete lighting system for cultivation.

It is a LEC device, one of the latest technologies in lighting for plants.

The great advantages of these LEC equipment are that they emit a more natural color, generate more light per watt, produce UV-B rays like the sun (which helps increase the development of trichomes and terpenes) and last longer.

The Aurora system integrates everything in one: a Lumatek electronic ballast for 315 W LEC lamps, a compact hammered reflector, a 315 W 3100 K LEC lamp, 1 driver cable and 2 pulleys to hang the luminaire.

Similarly, LEC grow lights look like metal halide lamps but instead of quartz they are ceramic, therefore more similar to what is used in sodium vapor grow lights. This is why they are often called “ceramic metal halides.”

Lumatek Aurora

What Lumatek Aurora allows is that it can be joined to the Lumatek Digital Panel controller, which in addition to being able to control a large number of equipment simultaneously, for extensive horticultural crops, also offers the option of being able to emulate the sunrise and sunset by slowly increasing the power, during ignition, or even reducing it, when the lights are going to turn off. Controller sold separately.

Therefore, with a reputation to match, the Lumatek lighting kit has been used in many grow rooms, resulting in improved harvest productivity levels, more energetic growth and greater plant health. cultivated specimens. All these results are thanks to the new square wave and high-grade ceramic arc tube technology that, mixed with a horticultural gas, allow us to revolutionize the interior lighting sector. However, the revolutionary technology used by the new LEC lighting systems also creates optimal spectral output, which produces healthy growth of cultivated plants.

Lumatek 315W CMH electronic ballast

No quality has been spared with this magnificent Lumatek LEC 315W electronic ballast, which has the characteristic of being of adjustable power, which is done through a (dimmable) selector incorporated into the body of the ballast. The power range goes from 50% to 100% power. When we carry out an action on the dimable to regulate the power, we will observe that it does not change abruptly, but rather does so progressively, in order not to cause stress to the plants. This Lumatek 315W CMH electronic ballast, also optionally, can be controlled remotely with the Lumatek digital controller (this optional accessory is not included in the luminaire).

For connecting a digital controller, it has two minijack inputs (one input and one output).

Therefore, thanks to this optional controller, we will take the range of options that this equipment offers us further. With the controller connected to the ballast we can program the on and off times, the simulated sunrise and sunset with timed fading as well as automatic dimming in case of exceeding the ambient temperature parameters.

Furthermore, a notable feature of this digital controller is that it can control up to 400 ballasts simultaneously (200 per channel), therefore providing the possibility of establishing two growing zones with different indoor photoperiods.

What stands out about this type of ballast?

Secondly, we return to the ballast, which is what concerns us. This ballast therefore uses square wave technology to operate efficiently with 315W ceramic metal halide lamps (known to light as CMH/CDM/LEC).

Furthermore, worthy of mention are the impeccable and efficient protection measures that this ballast incorporates and which therefore include protection against short circuit, open circuit, excess temperature, voltage rises and falls, and end-of-life detection. useful life of the lamps as well as EMI suppression. Its panel includes an LED indicator light, two inputs (IN and OUT) and a dimmable with which we can regulate its output power in order to have optimal control.

Lumatek CMH LEC 315W 3100K Lamp: Guaranteed lighting quality

The LEC 315W Aurora Lumatek Luminaire equips a modern Lumatek pulse start lamp specially designed to be powered, therefore, by the LumateK 315W CMH electronic ballast.

Pulse start technology therefore allows for faster start-up and restart time, longer lamp life and also better light maintenance.

The Aurora luminaire is therefore supplied with a Lumatek 315-930 (3100K Agro) ceramic metal halide lamp which is also available in a 4200K daylight spectrum format (Lumatek 315-942).

On the other hand, this single-cap lamp is manufactured with extremely high-quality ceramic arc tube technology and a horticultural gas mixture that produces an optimal spectrum that is highly assimilable for plants.

In conclusion, the Lumatek CMH LEC 315W lamp creates high energy PAR/PPF levels with low heat production over a full spectrum, almost identical to sunlight. What's more, with a color reproduction index greater than 90%, we will therefore obtain marijuana of the best quality.

What's more, Lumatek guarantees, therefore, a useful life of this lamp of 12.000 hours.

Below we show you the available content of the Aurora 315W LEC luminaire:

Lumatek Ballast 315w

It is therefore an electronic and adjustable ballast. Additionally, it uses square wave technology to operate efficiently with 315W CMH/CDM/LEC lamps. Likewise, it has safety systems for open circuit/short circuit, temperature, over/under voltage, end of lamp life, and EMI rectification and suppression. On the other hand, it has the option to be controlled remotely with a Lumatek digital control panel (sold separately). What's more, when using this controller, it can be programmed with on/off times, sunrise and sunset simulation, or automatic brightness dimming if grow room temperature parameters are exceeded.

Lumatek 315W 3100K Lamp

It is a lamp that creates high energy PAR/PPF levels with low heat to a full spectrum more similar to sunlight. On the other hand, it also produces healthier plant growth and higher yields. In fact, it has a CRI (color rendering index) of > 90%. It therefore offers a total of 32500 lumens.

Reflector

Along the same lines, it is similar to the Xenon HID 2 model, compact and made of patented Hammertone Focal aluminum that offers 90% reflection. The reflector is very easily screwed to the ballast, forming a lighting system that reduces the distance between the lamp and the ballast to a minimum. This eliminates interference and its performance will be higher. Therefore, the reflective screen is very compact and perfectly reflects the light that is lost from the top, thereby redirecting it towards the growing area.

1x Controller Cable

This cable is designed to transmit the signal between your Lumatek controllable ballasts and the digital controller. Furthermore, it is made with high quality durable components, braided ground shield and OFC conductors, and consequently, this link cable therefore allows a stable and precise connection without any interference.

2x Pulleys to hang the luminaire

Lastly, it has durable pulleys designed to hang your Lumatek luminaire and, most importantly, in complete safety.
