Size & Weight

INSTALLATION

WARNING! READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING OR WORKING WITH THE PRODUCT. BE SURE TO MOUNT THE FIXTURE TO SOMETHING THAT CAN HOLD THE WEIGHT OF THE FIXTURE.
In order to mount the fixture properly, start by identifying a suitable support structure for the fixture to mount on. Common support structures include pallet racks, trusses, structural channels, Unistrut, and rolling tables. For optimal results, we recommend that two people mount this fixture together. Be sure to mount the fixture to something that can hold the weight of the fixture.

• The user is responsible for correct and safe installation.
• Separate your power and low voltage wires when daisy chaining your fixtures.
• Ensure that your low voltage communication cables are a minimum distance of 6″ from any live power supply.
• Avoid coiled cords and keep main leads separated. This prevents electromagnetic interference.
• Please have an experienced, certified service personnel mount and install this device, in accordance with the applicable local laws and regulations.
• Ensure the existing electrical system can support the voltage and current requirements of the fixture.
• Do not open or disassemble the fixture. It contains no serviceable parts inside. Opening the fixture is dangerous and will void the warranty. · Modification to the cords is dangerous and voids the warranty. Do not expose the fixture to the following conditions: condensing humidity, heavy mist, fog or direct spray, extreme temperatures outside of its operating range, direct sunlight while in use and dust.
• Always disconnect the fixture before performing maintenance.
• Give the fixture a cool-down period of about 30 minutes before touching the fixture.
• Do not use this fixture near anything flammable or reactive. The fixture can heat up to 185 ° F.
• Ensure when connecting the daisy chain that you’re following the diagram below:

CONNECTING UP TO 80 LED FIXTURES

A group of up to 40 Luxx Lighting 860w LED Pro XR fixtures can be connected to both the main RJ9 port and the auxiliary RJ9 port of our NX-1 controller.

• Turn the dimming knob on all of the fixtures to “EXT” (external control).
• Plug the RJ9 end of one of the provided controller cables into the RJ9 main port of the controller.
• If a two room setup is used or if more than 40 LED fixtures have to be connected, plug a second controller cable in the RJ9 aux port.
• Plug the RJ14 end of the controller cable(s) into the input of a RJ14 splitter. Use an interconnect cable to connect one output of the RJ14 splitter to the RJ14 port of the LED fixture.
• Use an interconnect cable to connect one output of the RJ14 splitter to the input of the following RJ14 splitter.
• Repeat this process to connect up to 40 LED fixtures per group.

UNFOLDING THE 860w LED Pro XR

WARNING! ALWAYS PLACE THE 860W LED PRO XR ON A CLEAN, SOFT SURFACE TO AVOID DAMAGING THE DIODES.

1. Loosen the bolts on all four of the hinges. Make sure not to loosen the bolts all the way.

2. Lift up the folding section and rotate it 180 degrees.

3. Hand tighten the bolts to lock the hinge in place. Don’t over tighten the bolts. Screw in the eyelet bolts on each corner of the frame.

UNISTRUT MOUNTING PARTS LIST

Parts list for mounting the fixture to Unistrut:

MOUNTING WITH LANCE HANGERS

• Allow an additional 25″ from the top of fixture for the length of hanger.
• Locate the 4 eye bolts on the LED fixture and slide the lance hanger clips onto two opposing eye bolts.
• Be sure to hang from the center of the lance hanger.

SOLID DECKING MOUNTING

• Using the solid decking mounts, loop each mount across the crossbar above the LED light bar second from the center of the fixture. Use two decking mounts on either end.
• Once all four decking mounts are in place, lift the LED fixture up and mount it on the decking mounts. You can do this by carefully prying apart the hooks until there is enough room to slide the fixture between. Release the decking mounts and they will hook around the fixture.
• Adjust the LED fixture so that each decking mount makes as much surface contact with the fixture as possible.
• Now that the fixture is secured to the decking mounts, you can adjust the position of the lights by sliding the decking mounts across the crossbars and settle it in the appropriate location for your growing operation.

GROWING WITH LED’S

BY POETRY OF PLANTS (IG @poetryofplants)
When cultivating under LED lighting, a cultivator might be tempted to execute a similar methodology to HPS cultivation. This strategy can lead to frustrating results due to the environmental differences, higher usable lighting levels and subsequent higher photosynthetic rates that stimulate growth with less room for error. The focal point of heat created by a bulb also helps burn off latent load (RH) which doesn’t occur with a properly built LED fixture, which diffuses heat into the ambient environment created a more evenness to environment but also can cause higher relative humidity. Also, with LEDs more input energy goes into created light than heat (which is the case with HPS).

This increase in light will stimulate higher photosynthetic rates, leading to higher transpiration rates and a higher demand of feed solution, all of which add more water into the room. When specifying dehumidifiers it’s important to match the dehumidification potential with the volume of water added. With LEDs, it is safe to assume that the peak water demand per day will be 1 gallon per sq ft of canopy. Remember this is PEAK water demand, daily water demands will in reality be less and dependent on pot size, cultivar type, and plant age. For example, a 2-week-old plant will require less water than a 6 week-old plant.

Because of the higher photosynthetic and growth rates, plants that receive a higher PPFD will require more food. It is recommended when first cultivating under LEDs, for the cultivator to match PPFD levels used under HPS and make gradual increases of both light and fertilizer PPM during subsequent runs. It is also recommended that the cultivator uses a quality PAR meter that measures PPFD (umol) to understand how much light they are giving the plant.

HOW TO ASSESS APPROPRIATE PHOTOSYNTHETIC RATES

Use a laser thermometer to measure leaf surface temperature. Under LEDs the leaf surface temperature should be at or around ambient canopy temps (2-3 degrees differential). Transpiration generally cools the leaf surface, so if your leaf surface temp is climbing 2-3 degrees higher than ambient canopy then the light energy is not being turned into phytochemicals (which is desired) and instead is being reflected back as heat (undesired and used to cool down the plant). If the plant is heating up above the ambient temps then you need to dial down the light intensity until the stress is resolved. If this occurs for multiple days, then you should also dial down the fertilizer concentration, feeding the plant more water to help cool without leaving a buildup of salts in the media (which will choke the roots, aka osmotic root pressure). You should also perform daily pour through run off tests to make sure the media isn’t becoming acidic and the EC levels are close to solution EC level).
