The Oreon Embrace XL is a Dutch-engineered powerhouse specifically developed for vertical and indoor farming applications. Designed for integration into any multilayer or rack system, this water-cooled LED fixture delivers robust performance, high efficiency, and exceptional flexibility. Its standout feature is the absence of direct radiant heat, which allows for optimal climate control in stacked growing environments. With perfect light distribution across cultivation beds and no hot spots or edge loss, the Embrace XL sets a new standard in precision horticultural lighting.
Engineered for uniformity and efficiency, the Embrace XL uses a combination of two integrated reflector types to ensure consistently even illumination across large areas, including the outer edges of the crop bed. The result is over 90% light uniformity, helping growers achieve maximum crop performance with fewer installed fixtures. At 2.13 meters in length, each unit covers a broad area, reducing the number of luminaires required and minimizing installation complexity and energy use.
One of the key innovations of the Embrace XL is its active water cooling system, which stabilizes the environment between growing layers. By relocating the driver outside of the growing area and efficiently extracting heat from the LEDs, the fixture maintains a low operating temperature. This not only improves the performance and longevity of the LEDs and electronic components but also reduces temperature fluctuations and helps maintain consistent humidity and CO₂ levels. The excess heat removed from the fixture can be sustainably reused elsewhere in the facility, making the Embrace XL ideal for operations focused on energy efficiency and environmental stewardship.
With a high photon flux of up to 824 μmol/s and an efficacy greater than 4.0 μmol/J, the Embrace XL delivers exceptional output tailored to the spectrum required by the crop. It operates within a wide voltage range of 230–480 VAC and introduces only around 92 watts of heat per fixture into the cooling system, which can handle fluid temperatures from the dew point up to 113°F (45°C). This ensures reliable thermal management across a range of climate conditions.
The Embrace XL is fully compatible with the Oreon LED Control Center (OLCC), a wireless lighting control platform that integrates seamlessly with climate computers. Growers can dynamically manage light intensity and spectral output across unlimited zones, even down to individual layers in vertical systems. This level of control supports not only increased crop yield and quality but also greater cultivation efficiency in highly controlled environments.
With a rated lifespan of L90 B05 – 50,000 hours and a 5-year warranty, the Embrace XL delivers long-term reliability and performance. Combining sustainable thermal management, spectral flexibility, outstanding light uniformity, and remote-control functionality, the Oreon Embrace XL offers a state-of-the-art lighting solution for commercial vertical farms and high-density indoor crop production.
