Orphek LED technology in a glimpse:

Orphek has been the gold standard in LED technology since 2009, leading the market with innovative and customized solutions and this year we are launching Natura iCon with Orphek’s revolutionary proprietary 6 watt Mixed Colors Dual-Chip Power LEDs, continuing its tradition of innovation in LED reef lighting.


Orphek Natura iCon

Maximum Photochemical Efficiency & Blending Perfection

Natura iCon features 78 of Orphek’s customized high-quality, high-efficiency 6-watt Mixed Colors Dual-Chip power LEDs.

This means a total of 156 individual LED chips covering an impressive spectrum range of 390 – 740nm!

Orphek has meticulously designed the Natura iCon with 13 different of this revolutionary LED chips, each in varying nanometers, to deliver the most balanced and wide spectrum lighting.

Natura iCon spectrums

By incorporating Orphek’s Mixed Dual-chip LED technology, combining two different LED nm colors into one, and using 13 different types of LED chips ranging from 380 nm to 740 nm, along with 156 LED chips, Natura iCon lets you experience the widest and most captivating blue spectrum ever seen.

Natura iCon Spectrums in each Channel:

Understanding Coral Fluorescence and Spectral Quality                                                                      

Coral fluorescence is a fascinating process where corals absorb light and re-emit it at a lower energy level. The absorbed light is known as ‘excitation,’ while the re-emitted light is referred to as ’emission.’ This phenomenon is crucial for understanding how corals interact with light, offering valuable insights into the health and environmental conditions of coral reefs.

Channel 1 Lighting Configuration (Sunrise and Sunset Mode): 2 x 590 nm, 2 x 670/740 nm, 9 x 18,000 K LEDs

orphek-natura-icon-spectrum-channel-1
Natura_iCon_spectrum_channel_1

The fluorescence of coral proteins, when excited by an amber 590nm LED, tends to emit light primarily in the orange and red portions of the spectrum. Here are some examples by species, listed with their excitation and emission wavelengths (in nm):

Acropora digitifera: 570/590 – Montipora monasteriata: 570/610 – Pocillopora damicornis: 570/625
Porites murrayensis: 570/625 – Discosoma: 573/593 – Anemonia sculata: 574/595
Acropora horrida: 574/625 – Acropora aspera: 575/625 – Favia favus: 583/593

Regarding photosynthesis, Pigment 700 (P700) in Photosystem I is crucial because it can absorb light at a wavelength of 740nm. Photosystem II acts as the electron donor in this process.

Additionally, there is an 18,000K LED used, providing a crisp, full-spectrum white light, which is beneficial for various applications involving light quality and intensity.


Channel 2 Lighting Configuration (Noon Mode): 7 x 480/470 nm LEDs, 6 x 18,000 K LEDs

orphek-natura-icon-spectrum-channel-2-1
Natura_iCon_spectrum_channel_2

When coral proteins are excited by a 470/480nm LED, they usually emit light in the green regions of the spectrum. Below is a list of coral species along with their respective excitation and emission wavelengths (in nm):

Anemonia majano: 458/486 – Acropora tenuis: 465/485 – Acropora tenuis (green band): 470/480
Acropora sp.: 472/495 – Discosoma sp.: 475/500 – Anemonia aspera: 480/490
Anemonia sculata: 480/499 – Acropora aspera: 480/500 – Acropora aspera (green band): 484/499


Channel 3 Lighting Configuration (Cyan and Blue Mode): 13 x 470/480 nm LEDs
