Description

The innovative Giesemann lighting system from MINOX combines design with performance thanks to Diamond Prism optics, which ensure high light output and perfect colour mixing. This technology enables almost loss-free illumination of the aquarium, which brings out the natural colours of plants and fish and promotes algae-free plant growth. This new lighting optic enables uniform, wide-ranging and almost completely loss-free illumination. In addition, any kind of glare when viewing the aquarium is effectively avoided.
The lighting scenario is preconfigured, but can be adjusted and dimmed to individual requirements using the enclosed LED Controller or the separately available lynk aquarium controller.

The durable premium aluminium housing in a silver anodised finish with black glass elements offers not only style but also functional benefits such as optimum temperature dissipation and protection of the electronics against splash water. Modern LED chips, efficient and energy-efficient, ensure constant brightness with more than 220 lumens per watt.

The LED controller can also be used as a simple dimmer or switch, allowing flexible control of the lighting intensity. Up to eight switching points with different light phases can be programmed to realise detailed lighting sequences. Thanks to the built-in battery memory, all settings are retained even in the event of a power failure.

The holder of the MINOX tropic enables simple and stylish mounting on rimless tanks. The sleekly designed, powder-coated aluminium profile with integrated cable routing ensures a clean and tidy look for the installation. The adjustable height of the light between 7 and 23 cm above the edge of the aquarium and the positioning 25 cm (extendable by 10 cm with a separate extension set) above the centre of the tank offers flexibility in installation and adapts to different aquarium sizes and styles.

Giesemann MINOX tropic is also available without LED controller and attachment bracket.
