Q-Series Gen2
Flexible – Performance-Oriented – Future-Proof
The 2nd generation of the Q-series was developed to live-up to our reputation as the technological market leader and to extend that lead. For you as a user, this means maximum flexibility with the best system efficiency
and usability. The light module, which forms the basis of the Q-series, features the latest 2mm² LED chip technology, which facilitates the generation of a broadband optimal light spectrum with an efficiency of 2.7μmol/J. The secondary
optics, trimmed to minimise loss, direct almost every photon (more than 95%) directly to your cultivation area. The optimised heat sink not only ensures minimal temperatures on the LED chip (<70°C), but also ensures
secure mechanical connection to the supply rail.
We give you the options – you decide.
The Q-series models are designed so that the right solution is available for any mounting situation. For classic cultivation areas we offer an ECO solution or an EXPERT setup. That means you choose between maximum energy savings and cost efficiency, or maximum yield. Options such as power boost or dimmer allow you to expand your system‘s range of performance or adapt it to new conditions. Every light in the Q-series is prepared for this, READY-TO-DIM and READY-TO-BOOST. Of course, the lights can be daisy-chained to each other. Several lights can be powered by a single power source.
For standardised cultivation areas we offer an ECO setup as well as an EXPERT setup. You decide what is most important to you...
ECO setup
In the design of these setups, we have taken are to achieve the same yield as with corresponding sodium vapor lamps while minimizing power consumption.
An average 600W sodium vapor lamp emits about 840μmol/s. An area of e.g. 1.44m2 is thus exposed to 580μmol/m2/s.
A SANlight Q4WL Gen2 emits 416μmol/s. If 2 units are used on the same surface (1.44 m2), this system achieves an illumination density of 580 μmol/m2/s.
The same yields with better quality can be expected and you save about 50% on energy costs. In terms of handling, these systems are forgiving and
easy, because the plants are not driven to their limits.

EXPERT setup
The focus here is clearly on maximizing harvest. While with a 600W sodium vapor lamp 840μmol/s photons illuminate your plants, with 2 Q5W units, a photon flux of
1025μmol/s is generated. This means that the illumination density is 25% higher.
Nevertheless, even with the Expert setup, you can calculate an energy saving of about 35%. With appropriate gardening skills, the yields will be better both qualitatively and quantitatively.
The intense light drives the plants to their limits and requires proper handling by the gardener. We recommend using this system with dimming, and only applying the full performance of your system in the last few weeks.
