“MaxPAR”: Maximise coral growth, reduce costs
Omnima has introduced a new range of “MaxPAR” products. The “MaxPAR” range of
products enhances lighting conditions in reef aquariums, reduces running costs and
provides higher PAR output at the same time. It also simplifies installation and
maintenance.

“MaxPAR” Iwasaki 150W 6500K PAR metal halide lamp £31 inc VAT
Buy now: SKU16134
A unique compact design incorporates a reflector, UV filter and a superior metal halide
lamp. The lamp produces 3 times more output than standard metal halide lamps, 1100
PAR at 9” compared to the usual 300-400 PAR! Due to its design it produces less heat and
uses less electricity per PAR compared to standard lamps. 70W, 20000K, 50000K and
custom temperature versions of this lamp are available on request.
Three times higher PAR output compared to standard metal halide lamps

and incorporates a cable grip and push-in terminals.
Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) measurement
In order to keep lighting at constant levels optimal for coral growth it is possible to measure
and monitor levels of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) as well as LUX. Metal
halide lamps alongside fluorescent lamps will loose some intensity over a period of time.
By measuring PAR it is possible to adjust lighting levels accordingly:
•
•
•
Change MH and fluorescent lamps only when it is needed and at the right time
Adjust the distance of the lighting fixture from the aquarium. The distance of the
lighting fixture from the aquarium can be increased when the lamps are new and
later lowered to maintain constant lighting levels
Position corals requiring more intensive light at a correct depth
Apogee quantum meter and sensor £139 inc VAT
Buy now: SKU16142
Apogee LQM-ELEC meter and QSO-ELEC sensor reliably measure PAR levels. The
sensor can be submerged in water and is supplied complete with 2m of cable.
Apogee standalone quantum sensor £75 inc VAT
Buy now: SKU16143
This quantum sensor is waterproof and measures only 33x20mm. The sensor generates
0.2mV per umol/m2/sec. It is supplied with 3m of cable. It can be connected to data
acquisition systems or simply connected to a multimeter capable of measuring mV. The
measured voltage is then converted to the PAR/PPF range simply by multiplying the value
by 5. This is a cost effective solution for your PAR monitoring and measurement.
