HORTURION® HPS DE Series
Over the last 30 years, high-pressure sodium lamps (HPS) have brought proven benefits to horticulture. The colour spectrum is rich in red and far-red light, which stimulates elongation growth and optimises fructification. Therefore, it is best suited to increase yield. Further, the heat emission of the lamps supports assimilation by slightly increasing the leaf temperature. This is especially an advantage during the colder months when low temperatures normally reduce plant growth. In other words: HPS light helps to shorten the harvest cycle.

Each µmol/s counts
For a long period of time the output of a 1000 W HPS lamp was restricted below 2000 μmol/s. The reason for the restriction was the gas pressure inside the burner and the technology used to ignite the lamp.
Our engineers optimised the gas pressure and developed a novel ignition technology, called HORTURION® triple capacitor. This opened the way for a new lamp generation, making the HORTURION® HPS one of the most efficient and most stable HPS lamps currently available.
In July 2021, Ushio launched the HORTURION® HPS 1000 W supra plus with 2180 µmol /s, followed in 2022 by the HORTURION® HPS 1000 W suprema with 2200 µmol /s. It is currently the most efficient HPS 1000 W lamp in the world.
In the field of double-ended (DE) HPS lamps, Ushio offers 600 W, 750 W and 1000 W lamps.
