2023-07-06

New generation OSLON ® Square ultra red LED has achieved market leading electro-optic conversion efficiency, up to 78.8%;

The stable and reliable self-developed chip technology enables the Q90 to achieve an ultra long service life of up to 102000 hours;

To save energy and increase efficiency for growers while ensuring crop yields.

The world's leading optical solution provider Ames Osram (SIX Swiss Exchange stock code: AMS) announced today that it has launched its popular product OSLON ® The new generation of Square ultra red plant lighting LED is designed specifically to improve plant growth speed and achieve optimal system cost-effectiveness. According to customer needs, Ames Osram continues to research and develop key innovative technologies, and provides a more efficient high photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) LED solution than the previous generation of ultra red 660nm LED. New OSLON ® Square ultra red LED products are expected to be used in all plant lighting applications, including greenhouse top and interior lighting, single source lighting, and vertical agricultural applications.

The new ultra red LED (product number: GH CSSRM6.24) can achieve an electro-optic conversion efficiency of 78.8% at a junction temperature of 25 ℃, compared to only 76.8% in the previous generation products. Indoor growers can save on the energy cost of artificial lighting when planting various crops such as vegetables, flowers, and medicinal plants. In addition, due to the use of ceramic packaging, OSLON ® The Square LED product series can achieve high power and stable reliability, making it very suitable for harsh conditions such as high humidity in indoor agriculture. Regarding the service life, the new GH CSSRM6.24 LED product further improves the standard, allowing the Q90 to achieve an ultra long service life of up to 102000 hours, providing assurance for a bumper harvest. According to ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001 standard (Mannequin), LED can also withstand electrostatic discharge up to 8kV.

Thomas Grebner, Marketing Manager of Ames Osram, said: "Ames Osram has innovated the red light chip process, significantly improved the performance of plant lighting LED products, and improved the energy efficiency ratio under the ultra red light wavelength of 660nm through standard LED packaging, which is crucial for growers. Our technology is designed to avoid complexity and simplify, and growers can easily upgrade lighting equipment, reduce energy consumption costs, and ensure high yield of crops."

Key technical indicators include:

The PPF at 700mA current is 5.96 µ mol/s, while at 350mA current it is 3.02 µ mol/s;

The PPF efficiency at 700mA current is 4.32 µ mol/J, while at 350mA current it is 4.62 µ mol/J;

The peak wavelength is 660nm, and the main wavelength is 640nm;

The spectral bandwidth is 25nm. Ceramic packaging area with silicone lens is 3.0mm × 3.0mm.

Ames Osram has a reliable self-developed LED technology in the plant lighting industry, and is in a leading position in the industry. Our LED technology encompasses various spectra, such as ultra red light at 660nm, deep blue light at 450nm, far red light at 730nm, red light at 640nm, and plant white light spectrum, covering various application scenarios encountered by indoor growers. In addition, we also provide a variety of sensor technologies, covering the various needs of growers for planting and environmental monitoring.

OSLON ® Square GH CSSRM6.24 LED products are now accepting orders and sample trials.
