New Plant Lighting LED Product Series From Ams Osram

Recently, ams Osram announced the launch of a new horticultural lighting OSLON® Optimal LED product family, The series is based on the latest ams Osram 1mm² chip, which is efficient, reliable and cost-effective.

At present, the new OSLON® Optimal LED has released two products of deep red (Hyper Red, 660nm) and far red (Far Red, 730nm), and is expected to be deep blue (Deep Blue, 450nm) and plant white (Horti White) Products will be available in the third quarter of 2022.

According to reports, the OSLON® Optimal LED series is only 3.0mm x 3.0mm in size, and is especially suitable for plant lighting equipment for vertical farms and high-density greenhouses, where LEDs are usually used intensively. For these applications, balancing efficiency (photosynthetic photon flux per watt, PPF/W) with low cost (photosynthetic photon flux per dollar, PPF/$) is critical.

In addition to being cost-effective, OSLON® Optimal LEDs have excellent stability, high reliability and excellent lifetime.

The new products are based on the same advanced InGaAlP thin film chip technology used in the OSLON® Square 2mm² chip LED product line, leading the market for high-performance horticultural lighting LEDs. This technology enables OSLON® Optimal LEDs to handle high drive currents and high operating temperatures, minimizing photon flux decay and maintaining excellent operating life. The product is packaged in 3030 high-power ceramics with strong corrosion resistance and can effectively resist harsh crop environments.

In addition, the OSLON® Optimal LED features a new, larger spherical lens that generates a wide 120° viewing threshold, providing uniform illumination of the crop and avoiding light condensing under the luminaire to create "hot spots".
