Netherlands: New water cooled LEDs for Koppert Cress

Koppert Cress replaced their existing supplemental lighting with new LEDs. The fixtures will be used for the cultivation of micro vegetables. The growthlight fixtures are among the most efficient in the sector, and contribute to asustainable and responsible business. The greenhouses with the new fixtureswill be put into use soon.

The difference with previous versions is that the water cooling is now fully integrated in the fixtures, making sure the heat released by the LEDs is discharged to the thermal storage. Moreover, the power per fixture is also increased, so achieving the same growth light levels requires fewer fixtures.
