Orphek’s Commitment to the Environment:
Loving Nature as we do and being conscious about the environment, we only develop products with significant positive impact in everyone’s life. By simply producing an efficient LED lighting solution Orphek is helping to reduce a great excess carbon dioxide, sulfur oxide and nuclear waste emissions that are currently being released into the atmosphere every day, leading to a cleaner world and one that will last much longer.
Our environmentally friendly lighting solutions produce no radiant heat, and they will not raise the aquarium temperature more than two degrees Celsius above the room temperature! Soon you will find out that by using Orphek LED lighting products, you will achieve more color and growth, with less cooling and electricity than metal halides or any other traditional form of lighting.
All that said, help us to protect our Nature by not printing this manual! We suggest you save it in your computer instead. Trees are as much important as marine creatures! And they help to balance the temperature of Mother Nature. You can also access the manual in our website and watch videos that will help you in a fun way.

Epilepsy & Photosensitivity
Exposure to lights at certain intensities or to certain visual patterns can trigger seizures. This condition is known as photosensitive epilepsy. Many people are unaware that they are sensitive to flickering lights or to certain kinds of patterns until they have a seizure. Check with your doctor if you are concerned about light patterns triggering seizures. Although the exposure to blue light is very important to human beings, some people might have sensitive skin or eyes from it. Check with your doctor if you are concerned about a possible sensitivity.
