Equinox 660 High Efficiency Horticulture LED Light

TOP FEATURES

• Canada’s first LED horticultural light meeting all UL safety standards and is proudly manufactured in Waterloo, Ontario.
• Complies with UL1598 for horticultural lighting electrical safety standards.
• A thermal protection auto-dimming feature guarantees the fixture will never over heat or reach temperatures that could degrade the components and shorten its lifespan.
• A manual dimming feature allows growers to conserve energy when plants are at early stages of development.
• The rugged high-grade aluminum design ensures this fixture can be utilized in tough working environments with minimal risk of damage.
• There are no mechanical cooling fans to clean or service.
• Tested and certified for high humidity environments.
• Minimal heat output lowers the growers cooling capacity requirements as well as energy costs.
• All electronic components are of the highest quality brands including Samsung LEDs and Mean Well power supplies. No off-brand components have been used in the manufacturing of this light fixture.
• IF Lighting’s proprietary LED driver ensures consistent light output from all LEDs.

The diodes utilized in the EQUINOX 660 are Samsung Series F, Gen 3 with a Mean Well power supply. The EQ660 is similar to other LED Panel style lights currently available but with several distinct differences:

1. The Equinox 600 is ETL Certified - Many commercial LED fixtures have no safety certification - especially those coming directly from China. Fines for selling non-certified electrical devices in Canadian can range up to $500,000. This is enforced by the Electrical Safety Association.
   
   
2. The Equinox 600 has a convenient manual dimming knob so the light output can be lowered, saving energy for younger plants.
   
   
3. The Equinox 600 is the only LED on the market to have built-in thermal management. This means, if the fixture reaches 60°C the light will automatically dim so that the temperature never surpasses that threshold. LEDs begin to depreciate at 70°C taking years off the lifespan of the diodes. This is the main reason we can offer a 5 year full-replacement warranty, because we control the thermal threat.
   
   
4. The heatsink is the mounting plate made of 6061 grade aluminum. It is durable and has excellent heat sinking properties. With proper air circulation within the grow area the plates are warm to the touch but will not injure. This was part of the safety certification requirements.
   
   
5. The Equinox 600 contains a proprietary circuit board designed by one of I:F Lighting’s co-founders. As an electrical engineer, he realized individual power management to each LED strip was essential to prevent the LEDs from failing over time; another reason we can offer such a confident warranty.
