The Fluence LED grow lights are designed for controlled environment agriculture (CEA) applications requiring efficient, precise, and uniform levels of photosynthetic flux density (PPFD). Tailored for growing plants from propagation to harvest (germination, clones/cuttings, mothers, vegetative and flowering applications), these full cycle horticulture lights deliver high photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) in the wavelengths suited for all phases of plant growth and production.
Featuring an optimized profile for single and multi-tier vertical growing applications, the Fluence SPYDR Series broad full spectrum LED grow light effectively convert energy into photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) with an efficacy of up to 2.7 micromoles/Joule (µmols/J). An ideal top-lighting solution for the full-cycle, close-proximity cannabis cultivation.

The SPYDR Series includes two lighting systems: the SPYDR 2p, and SPYDRx PLUS.SPYDRx PLUS is designed for full-cycle commercial cannabis cultivation in close-proximity CEA and vertically structured farming environments with optimal photosynthesis at ambient atmospheric CO2 levels between 800–1400 ppm. SPYDR 2p which builds on the previous generation’s SPYDRx PLUS performance is a high PPF top-lighting solution for full-cycle, close-proximity cultivation of cannabis cultivation, with the power to scale from vegetative growth to higher light intensities in bloom. All these fixtures are designed to cover a 4’x4’ area at only 6 inches above canopy.

The SPYDR 2i is a high-performance top-lighting solution for commercial growers who want to push the envelope with high-PPFD cultivation practices and experimental applications or treatments. SPYDR 2i provides superior intensity, uniformity and efficacy and is not intended for beginners or growers not supplementing with CO2. SPYDR 2i delivers an average of 1060 µmol/m2/s of light over a 4’x4’ area at only 6” above canopy.
SPYDR 2i fixtures are suitable for operation in still air ambient temperatures from -10°C (-23°F) to 35°C (95°F). SPYDR 2i operating temperatures range between 25°C (77°F) and 30°C (86°F) above ambient air temperature. Please note; when mounting SPYDR fixtures, a 1 inch gap or greater must be present between the top of the fixture and the surface it is mounted under to enable adequate air flow.

The SPYDR Series is operated by a remotely mountable LED driver which accommodate an autosensing 100–277V input. 347V, 400V and 480V power supplies are available for the SPYDR 2p models. The constant current LED driver produces tight line and load regulation with high efficiency, high power factor and low harmonic distortion through the entire load range. The dimmable driver can be controlled from a variety of commercially available 0–10V low voltage dimming controls. Smooth 0–100% dimming makes it possible for precise control over PPFD, maintaining a high coefficient of utilization (CU) by increasing light-use efficiency, and offering flexibility to instantly accommodate a new crop with varying light requirements.
The light fixtures are built to withstand watering and nutrient dispersal in the harshest cultivation environments. They come with an IP66 ingress protection rating and are UL1598 wet-location rated. The power and dimming cables are equipped with push-lock connectors that enable quick and easy connection with a light push while still retaining their IP66 wet-location rating. The SPYDR Series LED grow lights offer great installation flexibility with a choice of mounting hardware, including short V mounting brackets, long V mounting brackets, solid decking mounts, lance hangers, and adjustable suspension kit.
