Product questions
Your questions about this product
- Ratio g/W real with active CO2 on 1.5x1.5 m? Comparison of yield versus standard EDF consumption?
The Lumatek ZEUS PRO 1000W Xtreme PPFD CO2 shows a very high light efficiency, around 2.9 µmol/J, which allows it to provide powerful lighting suitable for a 1.5x1.5 m area with CO2 supplementation. Regarding the exact gram/watt ratio with active CO2, it depends greatly on growing conditions and plant varieties, so there is no exact standard figure.Regarding consumption, this system operates around 1025W, which corresponds to about 24 hours of operation at €0.18/kWh = €4.40 per day. The superior energy efficiency compared to standard HPS lighting, for example, generally allows a better overall yield, largely compensating for the electricity consumption.In summary, this luminaire is a high-performance technical choice to maximize growth under CO2, with an excellent energy efficiency/light power ratio, but the precise g/W yield varies depending on your growing conditions.
- Hi, this ZEUS PRO 1000W really looks powerful, but I wonder if it's easy to adjust the power with the Lumatek Digital Panel for beginners without making mistakes that could stress my first grow?
The ZEUS PRO 1000W Xtreme PPFD CO2 is indeed powerful, but thanks to its compatibility with the Lumatek Digital Panel, adjusting the power is simple and secure for a beginner. You can easily choose between several preset levels (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%), allowing you to start gently, for example at 25%, and adjust according to your plants' reaction without risking stress.
- What is the difference in yield in µmol/J between the ZEUS PRO 1000W Xtreme PPFD CO2 when used with additional CO2 in a 1.5x1.5m area and without CO2 at a suspension height adjusted to 1.8x1.8m?
The
ZEUS PRO 1000W Xtreme PPFD CO2 achieves its maximum photon yield of
2.9 µmol/J when used with additional CO2 input over an area of
1.5 × 1.5 m and optimized suspension height, maximizing light efficiency and photosynthesis.
Without additional CO2 and covering a broader area of 1.8 × 1.8 m with a higher suspension, the yield in µmol/J decreases significantly. The light is then less concentrated, and plants cannot fully exploit the high light intensity, which reduces the overall system efficiency.
- For a cultivation area of 1m², is the power of 1000W oversized or recommended with this ZEUS PRO 1000W Xtreme PPFD CO2 system?
For a cultivation area of 1m², the 1000W power of the
ZEUS PRO 1000W Xtreme PPFD CO2 is indeed a bit oversized if used at full power. This system is designed for about 1.5 × 1.5 m, with a CO2 supply to maximize growth.
Fortunately, thanks to its compatibility with the Lumatek Digital Panel, you can adjust the power to 25%, 50%, or 75%, which allows you to precisely tailor the light intensity to your reduced space and avoid any excessive stress for your plants. This flexibility optimizes both growth and energy consumption.
In summary, use this system at a reduced power on 1m² to benefit from its performance without overloading your crop.
- What is the actual electrical consumption in dimmable mode at 50 percent without CO2 for a cultivation area of 1.5 x 1.5m?
For the ZEUS PRO 1000W Xtreme PPFD CO2, the actual electrical consumption in dimmable mode at 50% for a cultivation area of 1.5 x 1.5 m is approximately 512.5 watts. This estimate is based on a rated power of 1025 W, and a linear reduction depending on the dimmer setting. In the absence of a CO₂ effect, this setting remains optimal for this area, providing a good balance between efficiency and consumption.
- What is the difference in PPFD efficiency and coverage between using CO2 and without CO2 with the ZEUS PRO 1000W on 1.5m x 1.5m?
The ZEUS PRO 1000W Xtreme PPFD CO2 delivers a very high light intensity, optimized for cultivation with enhanced CO2 supply over an area of 1.5×1.5 m. With CO2 (up to 1500 ppm), the PPFD generally exceeds 1000 µmol/m²/s, maximizing photosynthesis and yield in this area.
Without supplementary CO2, the bars need to be spaced further apart to widen the coverage to about 1.8×1.8 m. This configuration produces a lower PPFD, resulting in reduced light intensity per square meter, thus decreasing photosynthetic efficiency and yields over the initial area of 1.5×1.5 m.
In summary, with CO2, the intense light is fully utilized over 1.5×1.5 m to optimize growth, while without CO2, a wider coverage is prioritized at the expense of reduced yield per area.
