Secondary Optic and Its Impact on Coefficient of Utilization (CU)

A fantastic article in MMJ Daily covering the critical distinction between Photosynthetic Photon Efficacy (PPE) and Coefficient of Utilization (CU) in lighting fixture selection, emphasizing the importance of both metrics when considering lighting for your facility.

Why optics matter in agricultural lighting: Rethinking efficacy beyond PPE

All Scynce LED fixtures are engineered with a secondary optic. While this optic does serve to protect the LEDs and internal circuitry from the elements, a second more significant purpose is to precisely shape the light output of the fixture with benefits of:

- Higher PPFD uniformity: This improves light distribution for both single fixtures and larger arrays.
- Deeper light pe*******on: Enhanced cross-beaming results in greater uniformity deep into the plant canopy.
- Increased CU: Our optics deliver a higher Coefficient of Utilization compared to fixtures without one.

The addition of our optics boosts photon delivery to plants by up to 40% over the same fixture without an optic. This substantial improvement has a significant positive impact on your bottom line.

Agrowtek and Scynce LED: Facility Control Meets Full Power Spectrum Tuning

We are thrilled to announce the full integration of the Scynce LED Full Spectrum Tunable product line with Agrowtek's premier automation control systems.

This powerful collaboration allows for centralized control over all aspects of your grow facility. You can now manage your precise lighting needs, down to fine spectrum adjustments, alongside environmental and nutrient control with sensor feedback. All of this from one system, putting your facility in perfect equilibrium.

Key benefits of this integration include:

- Selecting the ideal spectrum to steer your crop to optimum performance
- Creating daily recipes by arranging custom spectrums.
- Triggering critical plant responses (cryptochrome and phytochrome) by adding realistic sunrise and sunset cycles.
- Scheduling tailored light recipes throughout the entire grow cycle.
- Achieving complete lighting control seamlessly integrated into your facility automation.

Welcome to the future, where advanced facility automation meets the precision of full power spectrum tuning, allowing balance of all systems within your facility.
