Description

To fuel the desire for still higher light levels, Philips launched the first 1000W plant growth lamp in 2005, in the form of this GreenPower TD. The double ended construction was chosen so as to maximise optical efficiency in the luminaire, because unlike for single ended lamps there is no frame support wire running alongside the arc tube, which may cast a shadow in the beam. The position of the arc tube with respect to the pinch-seals is also tightly controlled, which permits optimal positioning within the luminaire's optics. In common with most other double ended HPS lamps, the outer jacket is gas-filled rather than vacuum. This permits a reduction of arc tube length for a given wattage, further improving the degree of optical control.

The Philips GreenPower Plus 1000 Watt EL Double-Ended lamp is specifically designed to work with 1000 Watt 400 Volt electronic ballasts to achieve best PAR rates, this lamp has the highest micromole output of any other 1000 Watt lamp in the horticultural industry.

The connection at each side of the lamp removes any shadows on the arc tube caused by traditional connector arms (approx. 8%). Also, instead of being a vacuum inside of this tube it has been gas filled to allow for the smaller arc tube and enhanced spectral control.
