System 260 Sunrise

In the tropics, the natural habitat of the inhabitants of your aquarium, life under water awakens each morning with the first rays of sun.

Light levels slowly increase in intensity before reaching a maximum at midday. Rain clouds then darken the skies occasionally, and in the evening the sunlight gradually fades.

Because we take our inspiration from nature, we at Giesemann Lichttechnik came up with the System 260 sunrise, the first light to let you experience perfect sunrises and sunsets in your aquarium. Our patented electronics system controls the four integral fluorescent lamps from minimum to 100 % brightness and in this way simulates natural lighting conditions.

At the desired time the light starts up at minimum power and slowly increases in intensity to the maximum level, before falling back down to a minimum. It is a breathtaking spectacle.

Besides the sunrise and sunset you can even simulate the movement of the clouds.

Just three buttons, an easy-to-read LC-display and the integral electronic control system mean programming the System 260 sunrise is child’s play.

You can determine the intensity of your light simply by programming the electronics system.The lights also come in several different lengths to ensure perfect illumination of aquariums of varying size.

With the latest generation of System 260 sunrise products the 1200 mm and 1500 mm versions can also be fitted with groundbreaking T-5 technology on request instead of conventional fluorescent lamps.

 

System 260 Moonlight

If you constantly improve on what is good, you can achieve perfection. An impressive example of this is the new generation System 260 moonlight, which combines metal halide and fluorescent lamps.

The moon affects not only the ocean tides. Science is forever coming up with new findings on just how much it influences life in the water.

Only by understanding the interactions involved are we humans able to explain many behavioural patterns exhibited by the inhabitants of the seas. As developers and manufacturers with scientific aspirations, we at Giesemann Lichttechnik have used these findings to develop a light that introduces moonlight into the home aquarium.

The System 260 moonlight, our flagship model, simulates natural living conditions day and night, allowing you to observe your fish in the moonlight.

Moonrise and moonset, and even the phases of the moon, pose no problem for the complex microprocessor control. We even thought of a cloud simulation.

As the moonlight lamp requires a mere five watts, the System 260 moonlight is incredibly energy efficient. The amount of light emitted corresponds to that of the natural moon, ensuring plants and fish still have their period of rest.

The perfectly thought through design details commonly associated with this light have been augmented by continuous, rapid-action height adjustment and a flexible spiral cable.

Special UV filters protect the occupants of the aquarium against excessive radiation levels. The user-friendly display provides information on all settings in as many as four languages.

It even tells you when the various fluorescent and metal halide lamps need to be replaced.

With the latest generation of System 260 moonlight products the 1200 mm and 1500 mm versions can also be fitted with groundbreaking T-5 technology on request instead of conventional fluorescent lamps.
