Quick Spec: 16W total (8W per bar) | 730-745nm IR | 33.15 µmol/s PPF at AC277V | 3 ft x 2 ft coverage | Daisy-chains up to 80 units at 240V | AC100-277V universal input

Precision IR. Scalable Deployment. Zero Guesswork.

Every facility running a sub-500W primary canopy eventually confronts the same invisible ceiling: the main fixture delivers photosynthetically active radiation, but the infrared band — the wavelength range that drives shade-avoidance signaling, stem elongation, and flowering-stage transitions — is absent or inconsistent. The result is extended vegetative cycles, uneven canopy response, and flowering timelines that drift from run to run. Without a dedicated IR source, operators are left adjusting photoperiods manually, guessing at transition timing, and absorbing the yield variance that comes with it. That variance is not random — it is structural, and it compounds across every cycle.

After deployment, the picture changes. Canopy response to flowering triggers becomes consistent and repeatable. Stem architecture tightens as shade-avoidance signaling activates across the full coverage zone. Transition timing moves from an estimate to a scheduled event. Because the IR15 operates passively — no fans, no moving parts, no consumable lamp elements — the supplemental layer runs without maintenance intervention across the rated 25,000-hour service life. Facilities running multi-bay configurations can daisy-chain units across the entire deployment without adding control complexity, keeping the supplemental IR layer synchronized at scale.

The mechanism behind that consistency is a tightly binned 730-745nm emission band — the infrared window that penetrates deeper into plant tissue than visible wavelengths, activating phytochrome Pfr conversion and triggering the physiological cascade that initiates flowering. Each bar draws 8W (±5%) from a universal AC100-277V input, producing 33.15 µmol/s PPF at AC277V and 33.03 µmol/s PPF at AC240V. The passive aluminum housing dissipates heat without mechanical cooling, eliminating fan noise and fan-failure risk from the supplemental layer entirely. At 240V, a single power circuit supports up to 80 daisy-chained units; at 120V, up to 40 units — giving multi-bay operators a scalable IR deployment architecture that does not require individual circuit drops per fixture. In practical terms, the Adlite IR15 delivers 33.15 µmol/s PPF across a 3 ft x 2 ft footprint per 2-pack at 16W total draw on a universal AC100-277V input.

Where This Belongs (and Doesn't)

Electrical installation, circuit loading calculations, and HVAC load assessments should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified facility engineer. Daisy-chain configurations at maximum unit counts (40 units at 120V / 80 units at 240V) must be evaluated against available circuit capacity before deployment. This fixture is rated for indoor controlled-environment use within an operating temperature range of -20°C to 35°C (-4°F to 95°F).

How It Works

The Adlite IR15 operates on a single-band 730-745nm emission architecture — a wavelength range selected specifically for its tissue penetration depth and phytochrome conversion efficiency. At 730nm and above, photons pass through the upper canopy layers and reach meristematic tissue that visible-spectrum light cannot reliably access. This activates phytochrome Pfr, the far-red-sensitive form of the phytochrome photoreceptor, which drives the physiological signaling cascade responsible for flowering initiation, internode elongation, and shade-avoidance response. The result is a measurable acceleration in vegetative-to-flower transition timing and a more uniform stem architecture across the canopy footprint.

Each bar in the 2-pack measures 23.6 x 1.3 x 1.1 inches (600 x 33.2 x 29.5mm) and draws 8W (±5%) from a universal AC100-277V, 50/60Hz input. The passive aluminum housing conducts and dissipates thermal load without any mechanical cooling components — no fans, no bearings, no moving parts subject to wear. Current draw is 0.1358A at AC120V, 0.08062A at AC240V, and 0.0767A at AC277V per 2-pack. PPF output is 32.99 µmol/s at AC120V, 33.03 µmol/s at AC240V, and 33.15 µmol/s at AC277V. The 0.7m daisy-chain cable enables sequential fixture connections across a bay without requiring individual power drops; at 240V, a single circuit supports up to 80 daisy-chained units, and at 120V, up to 40 units. The 1.5m power cord provides adequate reach to overhead distribution rails in standard bay configurations. Rated service life is 25,000 hours under normal operating conditions. In practical terms, the Adlite IR15 delivers 33.15 µmol/s PPF across a 3 ft x 2 ft coverage zone per 2-pack at 16W total draw, with a 0.7m daisy-chain cable enabling up to 80-unit sequential deployment at 240V.

System Integration

• Primary Fixture Pairing: Confirmed compatible with FC3000, FC4800, FCE4800, TS3000, and SP3000 as supplemental IR layer — recommended for primary fixtures rated under 500W.
• Daisy-Chain Architecture: 0.7m inter-fixture cable enables sequential bay deployment; 1.5m power cord connects to overhead distribution rail. Maximum chain: 40 units at 120V, 80 units at 240V.
• Mounting: Each bar includes hanging ropes and zip ties for overhead rail or structure mounting. Plastic rack hardware included for rigid surface applications.
• Thermal Management: Passive cooling only — no fan exhaust to account for in HVAC load calculations. Thermal contribution is limited to the 8W per bar radiant and convective load.
• Complementary Supplemental Fixtures: The IR15 is designed to operate alongside UV30 and Deep Red30 supplemental bars for operators building a full supplemental spectrum stack over a sub-500W primary canopy.

Operator Field Notes

• Pair with sub-500W primaries only: The IR15 is validated for supplemental use alongside primary fixtures rated under 500W. Facilities running higher-wattage primaries should confirm IR supplementation requirements with a cultivation consultant before ordering.
• One 2-pack per 3×2 ft zone: Coverage is defined as 3 ft x 2 ft per 2-pack. Map your canopy footprint in 6 ft² segments and order accordingly — do not attempt to stretch a single 2-pack across a larger zone without measuring actual PPFD at canopy level.
• Run 240V where possible: At 240V, a single circuit supports up to 80 daisy-chained units at 0.08062A per 2-pack — significantly reducing the number of circuit drops required for large-bay deployments compared to 120V operation.
• Passive cooling means no fan maintenance: There are no cooling fans in this fixture. Thermal management is entirely passive. Factor only the 8W-per-bar radiant load into your HVAC calculations — no additional fan-heat contribution.
• Stack with UV30 and Deep Red30 for a full supplemental layer: The IR15 is designed as one component of a three-fixture supplemental stack. Operators targeting maximum spectral completeness over a sub-500W primary should evaluate UV30 and Deep Red30 alongside the IR15.
