Cree launches new red LED for horticulture
Cree LED, a division of Penguin Solutions, has introduced the XLamp XP-L Photo Red S Line LEDs optimised for high-performance applications in greenhouses, vertical farms, and other large-scale growing operations.
The XP-L Photo Red S Line LEDs represent a 6 percent improvement in typical Wall-Plug Efficiency (WPE) over the previous generation, reaching 83.5 percent at 700 mA and 25°C.
According to Cree LED, this improvement can reduce operating costs by upgrading to the same output with less power consumption or lower initial costs with a redesign that reduces the necessary number of Photo Red LEDs by up to 35 percent.
XP-L Photo Red LEDs are designed for high sulphur and corrosion resistance to reduce maintenance costs while providing consistent, high-quality lighting throughout critical growth cycles.
With the same 3.45 x 3.45 mm XP footprint as the XP-G3 Photo Red S Line LEDs, the XP-L Photo Red enables easy upgrade to existing designs.
“Our new XP-L Photo Red S Line LEDs combine the efficiency and durability our customers demand with our popular XP package design for ease of adoption,” said Joe Clark, president, Cree LED. “Along with our extensive portfolio of optimised solutions, these LEDs are an ideal choice for many horticulture lighting applications.”
Secure Your Hydrogen Supply
A study supply of high-purity hydrogen is critical to semiconductor fabrication. Supply chain interruptions are challenging manufacturers, leading to production slowdowns and stoppages. On-site hydrogen generation offers a scalable alternative for new and existing fabs, freeing the operator from dependence on delivered gas.Plant managers understand the critical role that hydrogen plays in semiconductor fabrication. That important job includes crystal growth, carrier gas, wafer annealing, and in the emerging Extreme UV Lithography (EUV) that will enable new generations of devices. As the vast need for semiconductors grows across all sectors of world economies, so does the need for high-purity hydrogen.
