Aquaone AR620T lighting upgrade


Rocketman

Recommended Posts

I'm wanting to upgrade the existing lamps in the canopy of my AR620T . Can anyone suggest where I can purchase new lamps ( straight replacements that fit into the existing fitting ) .

Also what type should I be replacing them with ?

I have a LR, few softies and 3 fish and a couple of corals at this stage .

Hi ,

yes, happy to help . Hopefully your canopy size is exactly the same ( there's only limited amunt of space )

hardware is available from you local wholesaler .

Page 119 of the Superlux lighting manual .

T4 linkable fluoresent

parts listing

ST4-16 ( 16 watts ) x 2 ( comes with tube 6400k ) @ 520 mm lenght

SFT4 - C300 ( connector cable )

SFT4 - C1800 ( 1.8 metre cable ) cut the length to suit and terminate internally

I used automotive double sided moulding tape to secure the fluoresent fittings inside the gearplate .

Your'll need to get rid of the plastic diffuser and clips ( they rust anyway )

I am replacing with a piece of glass ( 585 x 130 @ 5mm ) which should fit within the rim of the tank ( i hope )

hoping to replace the existing compact flouro's with a combination of arctitic or marine blue ( if Jansen's can supply through kongs )

anyone else know where I can get lamps from ?

If I can't get the lamps the T4 has a Blue version available I'll like to try

Part number SFT4- BE6

total wattage now is 68 watts .

PL - 18 w 14000k /7100k

T4 - 16 w 6400k
