Genus 18 Short LED Strip - 2 pieces

The Genus 18 Short LED Strip is a modern UV LED light source designed specifically for the Luralite Cento LED insect trap by Pelsis (Insect-O-Cutor brand). It serves as a replacement for the traditional 18 W fluorescent tube, offering equally high insect attraction efficiency with significantly lower energy consumption. This energy-efficient LED strip emits UV-A radiation that attracts flies and other flying insects, providing discreet and effective pest protection in customer service areas. With its robust construction and long lifespan, the Genus 18 LED strip allows for the modernization of the classic Luralite lamp while maintaining its elegant appearance and reliable operation.

Key features and benefits of the product:

• Energy efficiency: Advanced LED technology significantly reduces power consumption – by as much as 70–73% compared to traditional fluorescent tubes. This translates to much lower operating costs throughout the year, as well as a smaller environmental impact (lower electricity consumption means less CO₂ emissions).
• Long lifespan: Specially designed UV diodes have a lifespan of approximately 3 years of continuous operation. In comparison, a standard UV tube loses effectiveness after about 8000 hours (less than a year) of continuous lighting. This means less frequent light source replacement – fewer service interruptions and lower maintenance costs.
• High effectiveness: The Genus 18 LED strip emits UV-A radiation at an optimal wavelength (approx. 365 nm), effectively attracting flying insects just like traditional lamps, providing a comparable effective range (up to ~25 m²) of the Luralite Cento LED lamp. With a stable level of UV radiation throughout its lifespan, the device maintains high insect-catching efficiency for a long time.
• Easy installation and replacement: The lamp's design allows for quick, tool-free replacement of the LED strip. Simply disconnect the lamp's power supply, remove the decorative front cover of the Luralite Cento LED, then take out the used strip and plug in the new LED strip into the holder (until a noticeable click is felt in the brackets). The entire process is intuitive and takes only a moment – similar to replacing a fluorescent tube, but much less frequently needed.
• Full compatibility: The Genus 18 Short LED Strip is an original component from Pelsis/Brandenburg dedicated to the Luralite Cento LED model. This guarantees a perfect fit and reliable operation in this insect trap. The strip has the appropriate length and connectors to fit the device's holders (the so-called "short LED strip"). Using the original LED strip ensures the maintenance of the lamp's technical parameters and its long lifespan.

Application:

The Genus 18 Short LED Strip is suitable for use wherever the Luralite Cento LED insect trap is employed – in places requiring discreet yet effective insect control. It is ideal for restaurants, cafes, bars, hotel lobbies, receptions, shops, and other front-of-house spaces where aesthetics matter. The Luralite Cento LED with the installed Genus 18 LED strip looks like an elegant wall sconce, providing invisible protection against flies and other insects for customers. This helps maintain high hygiene standards and guest comfort without compromising the interior decor. The LED strip ensures that the insect trap operates with maximum effectiveness and energy efficiency, which is particularly important for continuous, year-round use of the device.
