REQUIREMENTS

The environment of a horticulture installation creates specific requirements for the installed luminaires (e.g. HPS or LED). All farms, whether it is green house or vertical farm, have the three following criteria in common:

  • High IP rating
  • No opening of LED luminaires or HPS luminaires on site
  • Removing luminaires for cleaning

SOLUTIONS

A completely pluggable system with IP66, IP68 or IP69 is the answer to the requirements. Whether it is energy distribution in the field or a simple interface to appliances, RST® is an easy plug + play solution.

  • Connectors interface between conventional and pluggable
  • Distribution blocks for power distribution
  • Pre-assembled cables for routing or supply of electrical power
