In this article, we'll dive into the advancements the A360XE brings to the table and why they are a solid choice for aquarium enthusiasts; especially enthusiasts that like to bring shimmer to their aquariums. 

Key Improvements Over the A360X Series:

15% Increase in Light Output with the Same Power Consumption

The A360XE series features a 15% increase in light output while maintaining the same power consumption as their A360X predecessors. This significant improvement in efficiency means you get more PAR output for your aquarium without an increase in energy costs, making these aquarium LED lights more powerful and energy efficient.

Enhanced Light Spectrum and Intensity

The A360XE series has been upgraded with a more refined and broader spectrum of light. The Tuna Blue model now offers an even more precise range of blue wavelengths, essential for coral growth and coloration. The Tuna Sun, designed for freshwater aquariums, provides a more natural sunlight effect that better replicates the natural habitat of freshwater plants and fish. The increased light intensity ensures that even the most light-demanding species thrive under these aquarium lights.

Improved Color Blending and Uniformity

Kessil has fine-tuned their patented Dense Matrix LED technology, resulting in superior color blending and uniform light distribution. This improvement further minimizes hotspots and ensures that every inch of your aquarium receives consistent and high-quality illumination. The seamless color mixing also enhances the aesthetic appeal, making your aquatic display more vibrant and visually pleasing.

Advanced Control Options with Spectral Controller X and K-Link

Like the older A360X, the A360XE models come with enhanced controllability, making it easier than ever to customize your aquarium lighting. The fixtures are compatible with Kessil's Spectral Controller X and can be integrated with third-party aquarium controllers via 0-10V and Wi-Fi Dongle option. This allows for precise control over light intensity, spectrum tuning, and photoperiods, enabling users to simulate natural lighting conditions such as sunrise, sunset, and moonlight. The K-Link smart communication protocol ensures seamless integration and control across multiple fixtures.

Energy Efficiency and Heat Management

Energy efficiency is a hallmark of Kessil products, and the A360XE series is no exception. These fixtures consume less power while delivering more light, reducing energy costs and environmental impact. Improved heat management systems ensure that the LEDs operate at optimal temperatures, extending the lifespan of the fixtures and maintaining consistent performance over time.

Enhanced Durability and Reliability

The A360 platform are designed to withstand the rigors of a marine environment (or freshwater), ensuring long-term reliability and peace of mind for aquarium keepers.

Intelligent Control and Smart Features

The A360XE models incorporate intelligent control features that enhance user experience. With smart communication options like the Wi-Fi Dongle, users can remotely adjust settings and monitor their aquarium lighting from their mobile devices. This level of control and convenience is unmatched, making it easier than ever to maintain optimal conditions for your aquatic life.

Shimmer Effect

Like it's predecessor and all Kessil LED lights, the Kessil A360XE shimmer effect gives your tank a beautiful, natural, sunlit look comparable to the shimmer of a Metal Halide fixture. It is like replicating your own piece of the ocean.

Refugium Light

The Refugium light remains unchanged and so it is still available so it retains the A360X Refugium LED badge.
