Where the Iluminar Aurus iL8 Earns Its Place
Clearance, mostly. The eight bars are spaced rather than packed, which spreads 1,540 umol/s across a wide area from only 6 in above the canopy. An HID needs far more headroom to spread the same light, and loses photons doing it. That makes this a multi tier and low ceiling fixture. Draw is 670W at 2.3 umol/J.
What Makes This a 347v LED Grow Light
Voltage is the whole reason this version exists. A 347v led grow light is built for the 347/600V service common in Canadian and larger commercial buildings. The alternative is stepping voltage down and paying for transformers. Specify the matching build and the fixture lands straight on the circuit. Check your service before choosing this one, because a 347V unit will not run on a 120V or 240V supply. The rest is straightforward. Bars are passively cooled through an extruded case, so there is no fan to fail or to add noise. The body is IP65, meaning it takes water jets and dust without complaint, which matters in a room that gets washed down. Dimming is 0 to 10V for any standard controller. Beam spread is 125 degrees, and the diodes are rated L90 beyond 55,000 hours. The fixture measures 44 x 39.5 x 4.6 in and weighs 38.6 lbs.
Key Features
- 6 in mounting clearance: A spaced eight bar array spreads light where an HID would need far more headroom.
- 1,540 umol/s at 2.3 umol/J: 670W draw. Built for multi tier veg and rooms with a low ceiling.
- 347V build: For 347/600V commercial service. It will not run on a 120V or 240V supply.
- Passively cooled: An extruded case rather than a fan, so nothing spins and nothing fails.
- IP65 rated: Takes dust and water jets, which matters in a room that gets washed down.
- 0 to 10V dimming: 44 x 39.5 x 4.6 in, 38.6 lbs, rated L90 beyond 55,000 hours.
