Description

The Mitras Lightbar is Made in Germany and offers the following:

Homogeneous, brilliant, and very bright light through a balanced mix of selected high-power LEDs in natural colors.
Super smooth dimming with GHL Perfect Dimming Techology®
Uniformly wide light distribution with a LED beam angle of 90° with Total Reflection and Diffusion Technology (TRDT™)
Energy efficiency and long life through sophisticated thermal management (at least 60,000 operating hours)
If controlled by the ProfiLux Aquarium Controller: Professional light dimming, an individual mix of the color spectrum, and water temperature-dependent downward control (light will be dimmed if water gets too warm).
Full undimmed Lightpower when operated without ProfiLux (all LEDs light up to 100%)
Energy-saving compared with traditional lighting approx. 50%
Operation with safe voltage (24V)
8.4 W per 10 cm (3.93") LED module

Suitable Light Spectrums for Specific Applications

For an optimal lighting result, we offer 5 different types with different LED combinations to choose from:

Mitras LB Coral Pop (marine water)
Mitras LB Deep Ocean (marine water)
Mitras LB Ocean Blue (marine water, in combination with "Skywhite" for freshwater aquariums also)
Mitras LB Skywhite (freshwater with many plants)
Mitras LB Refugium (For algae and plant growth in refugiums and greenhouses)

How Many Mitras Lightbars do I need for my Aquarium?

Select Mitras Lightbar, depending on the aquarium volume.
Rule of thumb:

low light requirement: 0.3 watts per liter
very high light requirements: 0.9 watts per liter

Often, a recommendation of “lumens per liter” is given. In our opinion, this makes only sense for Mitras Daylight. The lumen specifications are somewhat misleading for luminaires with high blue light components (Deep Ocean, Ocean Blue). See explanation about Lumen, LUX, and PAR here: Basics of Mitras® LED Illumination).

Cross-section of light: 86mm x 25mm

*) This is the net power draw of the light module. If you compare it with the power of LED lights from other vendors you should keep in mind that they often only mention the higher power draw of the complete system, including the loss of the power supply.
Also the efficiency (ratio between electrical power and light power) is very important when comparing. The Mitras Lightbar light module has an efficiency of about 92%, where most LED lights of other vendors have only an efficiency of about 75%.

Mounting in the tank

With the supplied stainless steel brackets, Mitras Lightbar 2 can be conveniently mounted above every tank.

A flat bracket is also available if there is not enough space in the tank.

Operation Modes

Mitras Lightbar can be operated undimmed and dimmed.
If operated undimmed, all LEDs will run at 100%. There is no control needed. Activation and deactivation can be made through a simple timer.
Another option, however, is to dim and operate the Lightbar with a ProfiLux Controller (ProfiLux 4 or ProfiLux Mini/Light (WiFi), ProfiLux 3 is not compatible with Mitras Lightbar 3). All color channels can thus be dimmed independently. So all the ProfiLux Controllers simulation programs, such as sunrise and sunset, cloud simulation, thunderstorms, or calendrical moon phase simulation, are possible.

Operation

Depending on the configuration (see the following illustrations), you will need additional accessories to operate the Lightbar:

Matching Power supply
Mitras-LB-Splitter
Mitras-Lightbar-ProfiLux ActiveSplitter
Cable to ProfiLux (P4/Mini/Light: Mitras-Lightbar-Cable-RJ45)

You can find all this in our Lightbar accessories section.

You must select a power supply with at least the connected Lightbar's power.

- If you want to operate several Lightbars together, choose a power supply unit with at least the total power of all connected Lightbars.
- If you want to operate up to 4 Lightbars together, you will need a Mitras Lightbar Splitter.
- If more than 4 Lightbars (up to 16) are operated together, you will also need a Mitras Lightbar-ActiveSplitter and corresponding Mitras-Lightbar-RJ45-Cables to connect to it.
