Description
The PHOTONTEK VF 650W Driver is the essential, high-capacity control gear designed to power and manage the VF (Vertical Farming) series LED fixtures, such as the VF 90W and VF 120W, for use in multi-layer and propagation setups. This centralized driver simplifies large-scale installations by eliminating the need for a separate driver for every light bar, thereby saving on costs and enhancing operational efficiency. It offers substantial flexibility, capable of powering up to seven VF 90W fixtures or up to five VF 120W fixtures simultaneously. This driver unit features remote positioning capability, allowing it to be placed outside the growing area to reduce heat and maintain optimal climate conditions.
-
Centralized Control Gear: Essential power supply and control unit for the VF 90W and VF 120W LED fixtures (fixtures sold separately).
-
High-Capacity Power: Can power up to seven VF 90W fixtures or up to five VF 120W fixtures from a single driver, optimizing installation costs.
-
Remote & Flexible Operation: Designed for remote positioning to keep heat out of the grow space and improve climate control.
-
Full Dimming Capability: Supports full dimming control (OFF-25%-50%-75%-100%) via the built-in manual dimmer or externally using any 0-10V controller.
-
Durable & Protected: Features an IP65 waterproof/dustproof rating and includes full circuit protection against low/high voltage and short circuits.
The VF 650W Driver is engineered for professional-grade control and durability. It enables full switching and dimming functionality (OFF-25%-50%-75%-100% via a manual dimmer, or 1% increments with a controller) using the universal 0-10V signal protocol. This allows seamless integration with the PHOTONTEK Digital Controller or any compatible universal controller, facilitating features like automated dimming, temperature safety, and sunrise/sunset modes for up to 100 fixtures. Furthermore, the driver is built to withstand harsh growing environments, boasting an IP65 waterproof and dustproof rating and full circuit protection against voltage irregularities.
